Ack! I'm terrible at furniture layout. Heeeeeeelp!
Ugh, I need so much help with my living room layout. I have a bunch of great furniture and a bunch of space but it just isn't flowing correctly right now.
Can anyone pass along some tips or hints?
The main furniture is:
2, 3-seater sofas
An overstuffed chair
An antique rocking chair
3 end tables of various sizes
Coffee table
Entertainment center
Small dining nook table
Bookshelf
I'm willing to work with what I have, but I'm also open for options for a few things that could improve the room (ie: a bigger coffee table? getting rid of the table??)
Thanks ahead of time if anyone has any insight!
PS- Just to further help with the picture, the french doors to out to a porch, the random gray square along the left wall is a bookshelf 
Re: Ack! I'm terrible at furniture layout. Heeeeeeelp!
The reason I'm not a fan of arranging furniture online or on graph paper is because, to a large extent, furniture arranging isn't a mathematical question. It's a gut feeling in many ways.
Your diagram above looks completely fine. So if you're saying it isn't working, that's a feeling, one we can't pick up on from a computer-generated diagram. If you post real pics, we can get a better feel of the room and might be able to help you more.

I'm wondering if its just too much furniture for the room?
I think a room has to be really large to fit (2) 3-seater sofa's and 2 chairs. I might move sofa off the wall perpendicular to the TV (the blue one), and move the overstuffed chair over there. An end table between the sofa and overstuffed chair.
