Furniture layout help
Looking to purchase this house, perfect location etc but I can not work out furniture/tv layout for lounge. Space between stairs and window is 2.20m and the only wall I can think a sofa would go is 2m

Help with layout and furniture placement in kitchen/diner/family room
Comments (8)Good morning Hazel, Here's a link to a guide on small extensions under permitted development, if you haven't already looked at. https://interactive.planningportal.co.uk/mini-guide/extensions-single-storey/0 Once you have more idea on the construction of the extension and the exact dimensions, you'll be able to properly assess the internal space you have. You are correct in saying that it wouldn't be ideal to have to walk through the living space into the extension for the dining room. The proposed extension itself may not be ideal for a living/family area once a sofa and TV are in, as this won't leave much space for an external bi-fold/sliding door. Another option to explore is moving the kitchen to the left and having the living/family room to the right hand side (where the kitchen is currently situated). This will then mean the extension will hold the dining space....See MoreAwkward triangle living room furniture layout HELP
Comments (8)So... here goes: I've used the dimensions of the Ikea Klippan sofa, so something around that size should be okay. Also put in an Ikea armchair, and I'm thinking that you could incorporate the TV into the bookcases. Perhaps you could create a bench in the niche where the patio doors are, with a small dining table and a chair. I've seen people using Ikea (I'm not working for them, I promise) Kallax shelving units to create dining benches. If it's really 1.19 m, it would fit exactly (fingers crossed). Anyway, good tip is to make a paper version of furniture you've seen, using (news)paper and sticky tape and put it on the floor in the room to see how much floor space it will take up....See Moreneed a help in furniture layout pls!

Comments (4)I’m not too sure which way right is on this photo but for storage, have you considered a wardrobe? It doesn’t have to be fitted but if it was it would really maximise the storage space. Since the room isn’t massive stick with white or other light colours. I would recommend a full size wardrobe not really low kids ones because soon their clothes won’t fit in it! The low draws could make a really cool seating area if you add some cushions. To display their items a shelf could work well anywhere in the room. Make sure any storage works hard and the potential wardrobe has space for all their clothing. Hope this helps!...See More- 21 days ago

Hi Michele, I've created a suggested layout for your lounge area (see attached image). Here’s the logic behind it:
• TV Placement: The TV is positioned above the fireplace, providing a cozy viewing angle and maximizing wall space.
• Dining Area: I’ve placed the dining table close to the window, letting you enjoy natural light while dining.
• On one side of the entrance, there’s a shoe rack (or you could use shoe cabinets with drawers).
• Opposite this, you could include a coat hanger for convenience, or if you prefer, a catch-all chest of drawers or display cabinet.
• Storage and Display: Between the stairs and the window, there's space for a display cabinet. It’s ideal for showcasing art, decorative pieces, or crockery collections.
Feel free to let me know your thoughts or if you have additional adjustments you'd like to explore!

There is a seperate dining room/ reception where I thought I would put the dining table. Love the sofa and Tv layout but concerned about the ’dead space’ behind if I don't place the dining table there. Here is the full layout of the down stairs
