Re: We want YOU to interview an IKEA Store Manager!
Hi Violeta- Welcome to IKEAFANS!
There are lots of people here who love interior design and would be happy to comment on your design or space.
We'll need to know the measurements of your room, where the windows and doors are, and what you like! Can you post a photo of your current living room? That's a good place to start. I'll move this post to it's own thread.
Let us know if you'd like help getting around the site and using it's tools.
We have a thing for all things design...so post your needs, desires, wants and relevant measurements and budget and we'll be more than happy to throw a bunch of ideas at you!
That looks like a great space....unfortunately, the pix are fairly small and it's hard to see what is going on. Could you post some much larger pictures? I'd especially like a good look at the floor plans.
Violeta Mantica - Welcome to IKEAFANS! That's a beautiful view you have! I took the liberty of uploading the photos that you emailed to me into your galleries, so others can view full-size versions. Hope that helps!
I'm also going to paste in the text of the email as I think it contains more information than is contained here. (Spanish - sorry, I can't translate, but I added the babelfish translation):

Estoy cansada de los mismos sofas y los mismos muebles y quiero renovar mi sala con IKEA, les envio lo que me pidieron, planos de la sala y parte de la casa, fotos de la sala, comedor, y el techo.
Esta sala se ocupa principalmente para ver television y hacer reuniones de 6 a 8 personas, en esta casa vivimos un matrimonio de tercera edad, por consiguiente queremos los muebles mas comodos que tengas, no nos gustan los asientos muy bajos o sin respaldar.
Los muebles que mas nos gustan de IKEA son Kipplan group por ejemplo: Klippan two seat sofa, skruvsta swivel chair
Las paredes de mi casa son de ladrillo pintado en blanco, el cielo raso es de pino, el piso es color barro.
Por supuesto que " I need help getting around the site and using it's tools"
Muchas gracias y espero tener noticias de ustedes pronto

If someone else is a native or fluent Spanish speaker and can offer a better translation, that would be really helpful. Thanks!

Married with a 3 year old, maybe? Babblefish cracks me up. It's like you need to take it through another English to English translation before it's helpful. Unfortunately, no spanish from me either!
Actually it means that the people living in the house are senior citizens.
In latin countries, the expression third age refers to people over 60 years old .
