Console tables are the first thing we need to discuss…

A console table placed behind a couch or sectional should be around two-thirds to three-quarters the length of the sofa. When compared to a full wall, the same ratio holds true, even if the wall is only a few inches wide.

The console should never be higher than the sofa’s back when positioned behind it, excluding any linked cushions. Your sofa and console will seem imbalanced and unpleasant if they are separated by a tier effect or a gap.The middle of the back of an adjacent couch, a piece of a wall, or a wall should be used for the placement of console tables. It doesn’t matter if you place them against a couch back or against the wall baseboard; just provide enough space on either side to prevent overcrowding.

A place to sit and have a cup of coffee or a meal

Remember that everyone in the seating arrangement needs to be able to reach the coffee table while seated, whether they are on the sofa or in an armchair, when choosing a coffee table or even timber dining tables. It’s best to have a coffee table that’s half to two-thirds the length of the sofa (or area of negative space for sectionals). When it comes to the height of the coffee table, it should match the height of the sofa’s seat.

In most cases, the coffee table’s size and shape are dictated by the amount of space available and the rest of the furniture in the room. An armchair perpendicular to a sofa necessitates a small coffee table, for example. In a room with lots of area and two armchairs perpendicular to the sofa, on the other hand, a large, broad coffee table would look great.

There should be an area of negative space around a sectional where a coffee table can be placed. To ensure that anybody sitting on the couch or in any surrounding armchairs can easily access it, it should be situated 14 to 18 inches away from the sofa.

Bookcases and Cabinets

For a room, bookcases and cabinets provide both visual appeal and practical storage. Use a thin or open-sided bookshelf for small spaces to preserve sight lines and keep the area feeling open and airy.

There should be no more than two-thirds to three-quarters of the width of the wall to fit a single bookcase or cabinet. It is possible to utilize the same ratio when many objects are grouped together (including any negative space in between pieces). A bookcase running down the entire wall may provide more storage, but the result will be a claustrophobic feeling in the room. For built-ins or many cabinets that replicate the look of built-in cabinetry, this is the best position. This does not include walls that are bordered on both sides.

The wall or section of the wall against which bookcases and cabinets are placed should be in the middle of the bookcases and cabinets. Several bookcases should be placed in the middle of the room (including negative space).
