Today’s Trendy Home Challenge #3: Furniture lines every wall!
Today we will be looking at Living Rooms and how to make intimate groupings that encourage conversation.
This is a large beautiful Living room but is the furniture spread too far apart? Can you reach the coffee table sitting on the sofa or chair?
In this Large Living room they actually made two intimate groupings, two identical sofa’s are lined up back to back with a sofa table between them to add height and separation between the two groupings.
In this living room you get a nice close and Personal feeling, nobody likes a wallflower, especially when it comes to furniture.
Moving the furniture away from the wall and making an intimate grouping will actually make your room seem larger.
In the United States, sometimes the living room is reserved for more formal and quiet entertaining while a separate recreation room or family room is used for more casual activities.
In most of these groupings they have something in common, two matching sofa’s facing each other with a coffee table in between to support the beverage and light snacks.
This last picture is a living room in a Condominium or Townhouse where the rooms are not as large or defined as in your standard house, but as you see they have created a very nice, intimate area for two people to enjoy a conversation and the ambiance of the fireplace.
I hope you enjoyed today’s challenge of creating a more personal, intimate space in the Living Room and have helped you in making your home….
