Many families must fit two sofas in the living room, but they are unsure of how to do so without running out of room. In this post, we’ll provide you with several suggestions for how to arrange the two sofas you want in your living room without upsetting the balance of the space. Knowing the proper techniques for decorating ensures that the outcomes are excellent.
You must have a few sofas in the living room because one might not be sufficient, which is why you are here. The family needs ample seating, so you must provide it. The issue arises when we realize that the living room is small and that it is challenging to position two sofas without giving the impression that the space is overly crowded. In that situation, I advise carrying out the following suggestions.
IN THE LIVING ROOM, PLAY ON ORDER
The greatest thing you can do if your living room is small and you need to fit two sofas in it is to gamble on an easy-to-order décor to keep it looking neat at all times. I can guarantee that a neatly arranged space will seem more attractive and appear much larger. Teach your kids to keep things arranged if you have kids to avoid making them feel overloaded. The living room will appear larger if it is arranged, and the presence of two sofas won’t be a nuisance.
ATTACHED TO THE WALL SOFA
Attaching the sofa to a wall is one of the most typical ways to arrange it in the living room. Because it is a large piece of furniture, it is fastened to the wall and so visually “occupies” less space. It is the finest choice for tiny rooms. The backrest can also be raised in this manner. The living room is defined by a pair of armchairs that run perpendicular to the sofa.
AS AN ISLAND BETWEEN THE DINING ROOM AND THE LIVING ROOM
Arrangement of the sofa as an island, that is, in the centre of the room without leaning against any walls, is a smart way to define the living and dining areas in long plants or large living rooms. In this instance, the modern or traditional sofas should lack high backs to allow for visual continuity and a lighter atmosphere.
POSITION OF SOFA TO CREATE A “HALLWAY”
This concept of arranging the sofa in the living room is used, for example, when the living room connects with the rest area and the sofa is left free and delimiting a passing area. A hallway or open corridor is created by the arrangement of the sofa, whether it be a corner sofa used as a chaise-longue or a linear one, as in this project.
WHERE THE BACK HAD A PIECE OF FURNITURE ATTACHED TO IT
It is possible to attach a piece of furniture that “collects” this piece to the back of a sofa if it is arranged in a free-standing position, either because it is between the living room and the dining room or because the layout of the space dictates that it be oriented towards the TV cabinet or the fireplace. Benches, low shelves, sideboards, consoles…
BUILT INTO A SMALL WALL
It can be essential to build a masonry wall or use some specially made furniture to prevent some irregularity in the wall. Additionally, the sofa is supported by the lowest portion of the wall. This happens in spaces with pillars or columns that make it challenging to find a big sofa.
AHEAD OF THE WINDOW
Arranging the sofa in front of or under the window, whether it is a sizable floor-to-ceiling window or a typical window at medium height, is another concept to arrange the two sofas in the living room and make the most of the space. To prevent heat loss, there should be no radiator there. A curtain that separates the sofa by a few centimetres so that it “falls” well can be used, or blinds that extend to the back of the sofa can address the problem.
RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE OUTER EXIT
Whether it be on the patio, garden, or terrace. There could be a window with access to the outside just in front of the sofa. In this scenario, you must make a passageway that is at least 60 cm wide between the back of the sofa and the door to provide a comfortable exit. Typically, the sofa will be arranged with its back towards an audiovisual cabinet and facing the interior of the building.
WINDOW CONFRONTING SOFA
Another position for the sofas in the living room is to face the window so that you may take in the views when they are worthwhile. A highly comfortable seating space is made possible in this way. If there is a television in the living room, it can be put to one side of the audiovisual bench or in front of the window on a low unit so that the sofa won’t face it.
A BOOKCASE FRAMES A SOFA.
You can build a bespoke bookcase on the wall where the two sofa is arranged in the living room to maximise the available space. Just keep in mind that if the backrest is fully supported, it must be a closed area with doors that “is lost” when it comes to comfortable use.
PARALLEL OR FACING SOFAS
Two sofas, either the same or different, arranged side by side in the living room, facing one another, with a space in the middle for the coffee table. Both sofas can be wall-mounted, one can be and the other can stand alone (or both can stand alone in very large rooms). The size of the room’s central hole will determine how much space is available to fill with a huge table, a few auxiliary tables, or even to completely close the area with a bench, pouffe, or armchair, depending on the size of the room.
