It is no secret that the appearance of a room largely depends on the arrangement of furniture.
To avoid experiencing discomfort, designer Yulia Tychino, an expert at the online publication Belnovosti, urges people to seriously consider and plan their furnishings.
1. Avoid placing furniture along the wall.
A sofa placed close to a closet and chest of drawers will visually “eat up” the space. Instead, try using it to divide the room into zones.
2. Don't leave the center of the room empty
It is unlikely that you will have tea parties with guests every day, so why not use the center of the living room for your own relaxation? A fluffy carpet, a coffee table and soft chairs with your favorite floor lamp will help you with this.
3. Remember the golden rule: the smaller the apartment, the less furniture there should be in it.
An excellent option for small spaces or studio apartments is transformable furniture.
4. Consider the placement of sockets and switches.
To avoid having to stretch kilometers of extension cords across the entire room, try to place sofas and armchairs close to electrical outlets.
5. Think about the composition in advance
Before you furnish a room, sketch out a rough plan on paper and make sure that the furniture you choose harmonizes with each other.
