When arranging interior items in an apartment, including furniture, it is worth considering the principles of ergonomics.
As a result, they will be convenient to use, and you will be able to move around your own home without any problems, says Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti and designer.
For example, the distance from the cabinet to the wall should be at least 80-90 cm - this will be enough for two people to easily pass each other.
If we talk about the distance between the sofa (armchair) and the coffee table, there should be at least 30 cm of free space between them. As a result, you will easily reach the table to take something from it, but nothing will interfere with the passage.
As for the TV, it should be placed 2-3 meters from the sofa - the specific figures depend on the size of the screen.
If you do not listen to this recommendation, then watching your favorite TV series will be uncomfortable, and in some cases even unsafe for your eyesight.
Thinking about how to place a bed in the bedroom? Try to make sure that there are 70 cm of space on both sides, and if there is a wardrobe with hinged doors nearby, then all 100 cm.
Let's finish with the kitchen: leave 50-80 cm of free space between the stove and the sink, at least 100 cm from the kitchen island to the walls, and if you resort to parallel placement of furniture and equipment (in a small kitchen), then make sure that the resulting corridor is at least 120 in width.
