Good afternoon dear friends!

It's no secret that sofa - this is the central part of the interior composition. And this means that everything else should be organized around it, that is, the location of the cabinet, armchairs, magazine tables, TV stands, carpets, etc. Therefore, it is important not to make a mistake, and to find the ideal place for him in the right room. And there are at least 6 ways to place a "star" piece of furniture!

And here in order to make it easier for you to decide: where and how to put the sofa in your room, I prepared this material.

1.Near the wall. Most of the inhabitants of our country put the sofa against the wall. For small rooms (living rooms), this position is probably the best. Since it allows the seated person to keep the entire room under visual control. You can watch TV and communicate with guests. But there is one subtlety!

The size of the furniture must be selected from which wall it will be located on. That is, you do not need to put a small sofa near a long wall or a large —about short. This situation will disturb the proportions and introduce an imbalance in the room.

And further! If you decide to put the sofa against the wall, then carefully consider the decor above it. These can be shelves, paintings, photographs, a decorative mirror... There are many options, just do not leave it empty in any case.

2."Back" to the window. By placing the sofa back to the window, you get the opportunity to enjoy the view of the room in natural light. And on top of that, the walls of the room will remain free, and you can easily arrange other furniture and accessories around the perimeter of the room.

However, this method requires the correct selection of the sofa model. Its back should not be high, otherwise it will close the window and prevent you from pulling the curtains. In addition, the upholstery of the sofa and the color of the decorative pillows should ideally match the material and shade of the curtains.

3.In the center of the room. Are you sure your sofa is perfect? If YES, then the very place for him is in the center of the room, so that he becomes a real "star" and a starting point for placing all the rest of the furniture. But weigh everything carefully before deciding on such an arrangement! After all, it is on the sofa that all eyes will focus. He will undergo close scrutiny and evaluation from the outside.

But this position will help you divide the room into functional zones without "erecting" additional barriers! What is an indisputable advantage with this type of furniture.

4."Back" to the entrance. Do you have a studio apartment or an entrance hall combined with a living room? This is great! In this case, the sofa turned "back" to the entrance will be the best solution, since it will allow you to zone the space in the apartment. Here you can safely choose a model with a high back. In this case, the sofa should be large or, in extreme cases, medium in size.

By the way, the corner will work too! Together with a carpet and a coffee table, it will help you form a point of attraction for the entire apartment.

5.In the corner of the room. Corner placement of the sofa saves usable floor space. Therefore, it is perfect for small spaces. In addition to everything, a gorgeous view of the opposite walls will open from the corner. Therefore, one way or another, you will have to pay close attention to their decor!

But for the walls adjacent to the sofa, you can choose contrasting wallpaper. For example, on one, stick the original patterned ones, and on the other, choose a shade similar to the color of decorative pillows or carpet.

6.Parallel. In this way, you can place large enough pieces of furniture even in a small living room. But if its area allows, then you can generally put sofas face to face in the middle of the room, and not routinely pressing them against the walls.

Of course, for the interior to look harmonious and balanced, the furniture should be the same. And don't forget about the decor! Add a coffee table, floor lamp, rug and of course a couple of decorative pillows.
