- A sectional sofa can significantly enhance a living room's
functionality, but its placement should prioritize both comfort and
room flow rather than just optimizing audio equipment.
- Choosing the right coffee table for a large sectional should
balance both aesthetics and practicality, with considerations like
storage and material to complement the space's overall design.
- In a room with varied window shapes and sizes, cohesive window
treatments can bring unity and style while addressing practical
needs like light control and privacy.
