Maybe a low shelf/storage in front of window all the way from wall to door?
Plant, TV, lamp on it. Kids stuff inside, then you have more space on the table side?
Hang lamp over table lower with a cozy bulb.
Install indirect floodlight for lowlight craft sessions.
Agree with the votes for round table or rug.
Can what's in the hanging shelve go somewhere else?
Then you could have pictures there.

Yeah - all of this basically - round table is a maybe. The shelves were supposed to be for display - but in lieu of me figuring out other book storage have been co-opted. Also they are too high.
I think Hue bulbs are the answer for lighting control
Cheers all - made progress today - trialling opposing sofas and lower lighting = better for winter nights.
Dining table is where a lot of homework and craft (and eating) happens - candles and low light for guests etc and such is cosy enough so focus is really on lounge side.
