Find the right layout
Before you commit
- Check any route to the balcony while the room is occupied.
- Put switches and controls near the activities they serve.
- Review upholstery samples where sunlight or everyday spills are likely.
Conversation layoutA room used for hosting where faces should stay easy to see.
Set seats around a common focus and check that a side table is reachable without leaning across the route.
TV-led layoutA family room used mainly for watching together.
Check daytime screen reflections and whether the route to another room cuts across the screen.
Living and diningAn open room with regular meals and visitors.
Mark the occupied dining chairs as well as the table before checking access to the kitchen.
Compact seatingA smaller room where loose chairs can serve more than one use.
Test the room at full capacity and show where movable chairs return after guests leave.
