How would you solve my most challenging room?

I have been living in my house for over 5 years and can not, for the life of me, figure out the furniture arrangement in this room.

What I got so far:

- Windows: I want to increase the windows opening, but idk if it makes sense to increase the width. I was thinking about, at minimum, increasing how tall they are by cutting down 2ft (this way, I can actually see my yard also).

- Walls: maybe remove the white panels and add a transitional wall molding. Then, add some picture frames on the walls flanking the fireplace with the same style of picture light above the brown painting.

Aaaaand that's as far as I got.

I like my couch, the chairs, the huge painting and the bench. The rest is give or take. I just can't make everything work together.

Obs.: close-up photo of the wood accent table just so you know what it looks like.

Help?
