Furniture placement can make or break the look of your living room. If you think it’s as easy as throwing your couch against the wall and calling it a day, think again! Good furniture placement is an art. The key is to create natural spaces that flow effortlessly from one room to another, making you feel at home in your area daily.

Although a reliable home design and decoration expert like Huntley & Co can take all the pain out of the process, mastering these tips will help you get cozy, inviting, and warm home.

Start With the Couch or Bed, and Work Your Way Around

If you have a couch and armchair or a bed and headboard, you’ll have an easier time working out where your other furniture should go. 

Arrange everything so that there’s a comfortable amount of space between each piece. Your living room might not be immediately spacious, but you can create distinct areas within it that still feel like one cohesive area with careful planning.

Place a Sofa in the Center of Your Living Room for Optimal Comfort

Your living room is a communal space. To make sure everyone can enjoy it, situate your sofa in the center of your room, preferably facing a focal point like a fireplace or window. 

You can also add a non slip waterproof sofa cover for your sofa protection.

Make sure there’s enough room between sofas for people to walk by comfortably—about 4 feet apart should do it.

Keep Patterns Consistent When You’re Looking for a Place for Everything

It’s all about complementing patterns when it comes to putting together a cohesive, stylish living space.

Make sure that everything you choose complements each other, from your pillows and curtains to your furniture and décor. Keep a consistent pattern through everything in your home. For best results, place large-scale patterns on larger pieces of furniture like sofas and bed frames while using smaller prints on smaller pieces of furniture like ottomans and bookshelves.

Use Mirrors to Make a Smaller Space Look Bigger 

Mirrors are a great way to make your room look bigger. Place them across from doorways or next to each other in opposite corners of a room so that they reflect each other and your whole space. 

You can even set up mirrors around your window to look like there are more windows than there are! Even though mirrors may seem like an odd place to start when figuring out how to place furniture, their presence is compelling.

Use Window Seats to Show off Your Natural Décor and Style  

By choosing a piece of furniture that complements your window, you can draw attention to what matters most, the view. If you’re placing a window seat in your living room, do it after everything else is in place. 

This way, you won’t have a cluttered view from any other part of your home. Also, consider a high-backed seat so that guests aren’t distracted by what’s going on outside.

Final Words

When it comes to redesigning a home, you want every piece of furniture and decoration in place. Whether you are doing so for yourself or even if it’s for your work, making sure that everything looks perfect is always paramount. If you find it challenging to do, an expert like Huntley & Co is always there for help.
