To find out how you best position your sofa in your own living room, you should first think about which functions it should fulfill. Would you like to watch TV from the sofa? Or do you prefer to sit with a view to the fireplace ? The size and shape of your sofa also has a big influence on how it is best set up in a room. Here you will find some inspirations to help you find the right position for your sofa in the living room.

Combine

To create a spacious sofa landscape, you can combine several sofas. For example, you can put together a three -seater with a two -seater. It is best to place the three -seater on the wide side of your living room and the two -seater at the right angle on the narrow side of the living room.

Sofas can be combined with a comfortable and practical armchair as well. In order to create a solid basis for stimulating get -together and stimulating conversations, it is advisable to compare each other.

How best does the sofa fit into the living room?

A free -standing sofa is very popular with many because it gives the room structure and offers an anchorage. This positioning is particularly useful for large sofas in spacious rooms. To make the sofa even more comfortable, you can z. B. Buy natural hair woolen blankets and easily drape them over your sofa. Ceilings in contrast colors look particularly beautiful and decorative. But even subtle colors that harmonize with the color of your sofa are always a choice of gsolide.

Can I put my sofa on the window?

If you want to place your sofa right next to a window, make sure that the curtains can be moved without any problems and select models with a low backrest. If you want to watch TV in the living room, you should make sure that the sunlight that shines in the window does not affect this.

Place the sofa in front of the heating?

A couch that is right in front of a heater is not a good idea in most cases . Because the sofa blocks the air circulation and can even be a fire risk if it should heat up too much. Therefore, there should always be at least 50 cm distance between the sofa and the heating.

What is the best way to arrange the sofa and carpet?

Your living room looks particularly cozy when you place your sofa on a soft and beautiful carpet. This creates an optical unit that creates a harmonious ambience. Therefore, place the seating furniture either directly on the carpet or around it. The larger the room that you have available, the greater the carpet in it.

How far should the sofa be from the coffee table?

If possible, always position your sofa so that the coffee table can be easily reached from there. However, this should not be too close to the sofa. A distance of approx. 45 cm is usually ideal.
