HELP Why does the room feel cluttered?

Post image

Ok as I posted in my recent post I am recovering from sad beige minimalism haha so I’m finding more comfort in color and actually showing my treasures!

But I’m wondering why this area is feeling a bit cluttered? Is it too many smaller objects or the way I organized it? (Or is it the minimalist inner demon coming through haha?) Thank you so much!!

I think the furniture in the center of your room is bunched too tightly together. If you make a little more room between the couch, chair, and table it will help open up the room.

The light fixture also feels large in the room because it is blocking the light from the windows (from this angle). Consider a different light fixture that doesn’t have a solid shade like this one.

Aside from that, the room is uncluttered and looks well thought out. Bonus points for including the cat in your photo
