This is symmetrical because if you cut everything in half it will be the same on both sides. The pillows are the same and the mirrors on the wall go good with the pictures. the two end tables are the same and the lamps on the end tales. The Eiffel towers are the same on the sides of the candles. 

This is Asymmetrical because if you split something in half then it wont be the same on both sides. if you cut down the middle the mirror will be on the left and the pictures will be on the right.the pillows wont be the same. On the right of the couch is a lamp and on the left is the Eiffel tower. On the table the candles are on the right and another lamp is on the left which does not make it symmetrical.
