General Guidelines

1

Determine the Focal Point

Identify the focal point of the room and arrange the furniture facing the focal point, making it the center of attention.

2

Create Conversation Areas

Arrange seating to promote conversation and interaction. If the room is large, you can create multiple conversation areas too. You can also include CNC and WPC jalis as dividers to separate spaces, read more here.

3

Traffic Flow

​There should be a clear path to move around, leaving enough space between furniture for comfortable movement.

4

Balance and Symmetry

​Balance and symmetry can create a visually pleasing and harmonious arrangement if approached correctly with clear ideas.

5

Consider Functionality

Take into account the intended use of the living room and ensure there is ample seating and space to host while prioritizing comfort and keeping it functional yet inviting.

6

Rug Placement

While using a rug, ensure it's large enough to anchor the furniture to help define the seating area to create a cohesive look.

7

Utilize Wall Space

Consider wall-mounted shelves, bookcases, or cabinets for storage and display. This can free up floor space and provide an opportunity to showcase decorative items.

8

Scale and Proportion

Avoid overcrowding the space with oversized pieces or using too many small items that can make the room feel cluttered. Maintain a balance in scale and proportion.

9

Flexibility

​Arrange furniture in a way that allows for flexibility and easy rearrangement. Consider lightweight or modular pieces that can be easily moved or reconfigured as needed.

10

Personalize and Experiment

Experiment and personalize the furniture placement based on your preferences to reflect your style and provide a functional and comfortable space for your needs.
