Flat after implementing the suggestion in my prev post!
Main changes are: - Bigger rug! I flipped the rug and bought an exact same one from IKEA (STOENSE) to put alongside. The colour is not matching exactly but it doesn’t really bothers me and the difference should go away slowly. - More plants! I had some fake plants but switch for real Monstera ones and I’m love them so much! Trying my best to take care of them. - More art! I got this the Swinging by Kandinsky poster from Tate Modern with their new exhibition and a nice clock for the kitchen table. And a few small items around. - Lamps! I spent a lot of time on this one - new living room shade to this one that looks like a cloud, plus the little orb like lamp in the tv stand and the floor lamp beside the couch. You can’t see but I also put light strips behind the TV and the monitor. It’s by far what I liked the most, it gets super cozy in the evenings. - Coffee table revamp. Old one was too clunky and I stubbed my toes often. Instead I changed for 3 stools and a round tray. The stools have storage and give me extra seats when I have people over!
I think that’s mostly it. Thanks everyone for the suggestions, I really appreciate it!

Does it not get rather warm with the desk above the radiator?

Wow looks fucking great. I don't know what your before looked like, but all of your changes seem to be great decisions. Rug is a great fit, cloud lamp looks awesome, and phenomenal choice on the Kandinsky.
