New Delhi: The living room is the part of the house that receives visitors and guests. So this is where you want to create a welcoming environment.
When you’re faced with an empty room, filling it in a way that’s both functional and aesthetically pleasing can seem like a daunting task. Like a blank page or canvas, an empty room can be both an opportunity and a challenge.
No matter how big/small your house is, a perfect arrangement will do a good job of making it look functional as well as beautiful.
don’t lean furniture against the wall
When arranging living room furniture, the size of the room will determine how far you can pull the furniture away from the wall, but even in small spaces you want to allow a little breathing space for the furniture by allowing a few inches between the backs of the furniture Space. Furniture pieces and walls.
The rule of thumb here is to only use living room furniture that doesn’t require much space, and make sure they don’t block each other’s view.
avoid cramping the room
Furniture that is too small in a large room can make the room appear cold and uninviting, while furniture that is too large can make the room appear cramped.
If you have a larger space, arrange the furniture freely to create a conversation zone in the middle of the room. Leave at least 30 inches between furniture so guests can move around them easily.
Using a Loveseat or Recliner
The sofa and chair should sit side-by-side with a smaller loveseat or welcome chaise longue. Remember that your guests should be able to converse comfortably and not be too far away or too close together. About 6-8 feet of seats facing each other is a good choice.
Nest tables to create space
In smaller spaces, consider nesting tables or furniture that fold down to create extra space when not in use. The size and position of certain sections will help achieve a uniform layout.
Avoid stacking all large furniture together and make sure to vary the shape, size and texture of furniture in the room to maintain balance.
location of tv
The TV should face your seat so you can watch it from the comfort of your couch or chair. Place it in an area protected from glare from sunlight or natural light or other lighting, and away from high traffic areas.
focus
Determine the focal point of the room—a couch, chair, window, fireplace, TV, etc., and position surrounding furniture where possible. If you have a large window, place a large window seat in front of it. If you have a large painting or photograph, hang it on the wall above the sofa.
