Tips To Arrange Your Living Room

by Linda FLEISCHER 11/19/2017

When you are looking to arrange your living room, there’s a few tips that you need to adhere to in order for it to be a well-functioning, flowing room. 


Arrange The Room So Face-To-face Conversation Is Possible 


You should place the seating so that when people are filled in the room, everyone is able to participate in the conversation. If seats face each other over a coffee table or an ottoman, it keeps drinks and appetizers within reach when company comes, creating the perfect setting for conversation.    


Plan Ahead


There’s many different apps and websites that you can use to plan your furniture arrangements ahead of time. There’s nothing worse than moving furniture once, only to have to move it again to get it in just the right spot. Changing up your living room will be much easier if you have a plan in place.  


Divide The Room Up Using Furniture 


If you have a home with an open floor plan, divide your spaces into separate parts using your furniture. Face your sofa towards the living room, with its back to the dining room in order to create a separation of the two rooms with a stylish flair. If conversations are going on in both rooms, it will also help to divide them up.   


No Sofa? No Problem


If you don’t have the space for a sofa, or don’t want one, use your comfy chairs in a strategic way. Set four chairs in a way that will suit the room. There’ll be plenty of seating available for everyone, even in a small room. The room may even seem more open than if you had a sofa. 


The TV And The Fireplace Can Coexist


If you have both a TV and a fireplace, there’s a few different arrangement strategies that you can use to make both pieces look good in a room. You may place the television over the fireplace for a dual look. The best strategy to use is perhaps to place each on opposite walls of the room. Then, arrange seating accordingly so that there’s some chairs facing the fireplace and some facing the television. In the offseason for the fireplace, you can move the seating accordingly.


A Rug Makes The Room


You can easily put the room all together by placing a rug in the center of the room. These area rugs help to group a space, denoting that it’s all the same area. Try to choose a rug that’s large enough to contain all of the seating pieces.
