So I just moved into a new apartment, and in the course of unpacking, I realized that I really do not like my living room, mainly due to the layout of outlets and heating vents (as seen below). And as a result, I've no idea how to organize my furniture to best utilize the power outlets and not block heating vents or the AC unit. What sucks even more is that the cable jack is on the heating vents side (yet strangely there are two Ethernet jacks...), and I'm wary of having my electronics close to a heat source (unless I'm just being overly cautious).
So I'm wondering if there's any interior designers here or people who have experience with this who could give me some advice on how best to set this room up. One other thing to consider is that the room is oriented so that at sunset at certain times of the year, sunlight will come in through the patio door and hit the wall at the top of the diagram, and I like most people don't like glare on TV and computer screens. One thing I'm not keen on is having the desk next to the window to the kitchen (it's like a wall/countertop thing) because of concern about an Act of God where food or grease or liquid gets spilled and then goes onto the desk and wrecks my computer or other electronics.
To give an idea of what I'm working with, here's a diagram of the room, locations of heating vents, AC unit, outlets, and shadow outlines of furniture. The outlets aren't on the floor, just drew them that way so they'd be easier to see. Everything is as close to proportion as I could get it. So if anyone has some ideas or suggestions, I'm all ears.
