Morphology
The phrase is transparently compositional: 'living room' names the room and 'suite' denotes a coordinated set, so a learner who knows both constituents can infer it means a matching set of furniture for the living room. This straightforward noun–noun modification is a common cross-linguistic pattern and should be immediately comprehensible to a B1 learner.
Etymology
The term living room suite may come from furniture sellers who used suite to mean a group of pieces that go together for the living room. So it now means 'a set of matching furniture for the living room'.
