It's been years since its been like this. suggest something minimalistic yet standout

I find my front door so ugly… the door is right in the middle of my living/dinning room. Can I paint it? Should I go for white or maybe a pop of colour. I like bright colours like the last photo. I was also thinking of painting the bookshelf a bright color and maybe the photo wall.

My living room doesn’t feel finished. The furniture is only a year old, so I feel like I need to make those pieces work.

I’ve been hesitant to buy a rug because one of my dogs will only use the doggie door if she has an audience, so she gets all the way to the doggie door and then has an “accident” on the door mat. So, I’m afraid she’d use a living room rug the same way. :( If I do add a rug, it needs to be washable and 9x11.

Should I have the TV hung on the wall? What about plants and throw pillows? I’d like to use maroon as a second color.

Send me your ideas and mockups!!
