Your living design relies upon different variables, including the room's size and shape, the number of pieces you need to add, the number of people in your household, and where architectural features (like entryways, windows, and chimneys) have been put. Tragically, realizing what will affect your design doesn't ensure that said layout will work.

Then again, a helpful guide, for example, this one could very well give you an idea about the ideal areas for your sofas, seats, end tables, and other family room treats.

 

1. The classic layout

 

2. An extra two

Adding two extra armchairs to the classic layout is the perfect save for when you want to have enough comfortable seating for everyone, or if your sofas are rather small. 

This format (two indistinguishable sofas easily separated by a foot stool) is the most famous. It takes up moderately little legroom, considers comfortable perspectives on the TV or chimney, in addition to has space for additional seating (like a tub seat or two ottomans) which can be added when required.

 

3. A sofa with two chairs

Try not to have the space or spending plan to squeeze two sofas into one room, particularly a little one? Have a go at blending one sofa with two matching seats?

Complete the look with a foot stool and a huge carpet adequately large to convey your sofa and seats.

 

4. Mix and Match

There’s always the option of grouping one sofa with three armchairs. Or adding a hanging chair into the mix for a truly eclectic vibe.

To make it more straightforward on yourself ahead of time, use pen and paper, to draw a floor plan that allows you to alter your furniture design over and over once more. Think about where the wide range of various pieces, similar to the TV, side tables, and shelf/stockpiling racks, will be put too.
