in the living room vs at the living room

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'In the living room' is used to indicate that something or someone is located inside the living room. For example, 'The TV is in the living room.' 'At the living room' is less common, but it can be used as part of a longer phrase that is related to an object in the living room. For example, 'We will sit at the living room table.'
