What moves the needle
Flooring and wall finish are the background everything else sits against; get those wrong and no amount of furniture rescues the room. The hearth is the focal move that anchors the style.
Cost reality
Floors and wall treatment are the load-bearing spend here; furnishings layer on top. A living room's transformation is often more about material coherence than square-footage cost — render the direction, then price the moves.
