Furniture arrangement: Welcome to your new home🏡

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

If you’ve ever toured the model homes in a new home community, you will understand that interiordecorating is an art.
It’s not just the tastefully designed furniture and accessories that create the perfect room, the placement of these elements has a great deal to do with the overall appeal of a design

Here are a few things to keep in mind when planning your furniture arrangement.👀

Determine how you’ll use the room:

What is the purpose of the room? 📺

Create zones in the room and arrange the furniture to delineate them

Set the sofa 🛋️ to face the TV and then create a separate area with comfy chairs, for those solitary moments you spend reading or conversing one-on-one.

Determine a focal point

Where is your eye drawn when you enter the room? This is the room’s focal point. Typical spots to create this point include a fireplace or large window with a view.

If the room lacks a natural focal point, create one by painting a wall in an accent colour or using a piece of artwork or furniture, such as a bookcase.

Create traffic flow

Make sure you don’t crowd the entryways to the room with furniture pieces. Make it easy to enter and exit the room

Once inside the room, there should be enough room to walk through it without bumping into or having to manoeuvre around furniture

Keep furniture to scale

Oversized furniture in small rooms not only disrupts traffic flow, but may obliterate the room’s focal point, making the room feel even smaller than it is

The same can be said for large rooms with dinky furniture
The size of your furniture should match the size of the room.
