Mastering Space: A Guide to Planning Your Furniture Layout with Oxford Furniture

Creating a luxurious and functional living space requires immaculate and thoughtful planning, especially when arranging furniture like sofas, recliners, sleepers, accent chairs, and center tables. Whether planning to move into a new home or want to give your current space a makeover, a planned furniture arrangement can transform a room into a cozy abode for relaxation and entertainment. At Oxford Furniture, we not only offer an extensive range of the best furniture in the whole of Alabama, but also provide home delivery service, 0% interest financing, and a decade-plus experience which is all appreciated by 5-star reviews from our satisfied customers.


Here's how you can plan your space to embed various furniture pieces while maximizing comfort and style without any hassle:

  1. Scan up your space: Before going into furniture selection, take out the measurement of your room's dimensions, architectural features, and number of people it will be accommodating based on the room type i.e. Living room, bedroom, etc. Measure the space with a measuring tape accurately, including doorways and windows, to ensure your chosen piece of furniture fits without causing hindrance to the walking area of the room.
  2. Know the Functionality: Identify the primary function of every room of your place will the room be serving as a warm and comfy family gathering spot, a formal entertaining area/ party area, or a multifunctional space for work and relaxation?  Finding the functionality of the room will guide your layout decisions and furniture choices.
  3. Divide your home into Zones: Divide the room into distinct zones based on its function and footfall patterns. For example, you must place the sofa in a conversation area, accent chairs, a center table for informal gatherings, and a separate reading zone with a recliner and side table for seamless reading space and time.
  4. Scale Matters: Pay attention to the scale of your furniture relative to the size of the room. Opt for pieces that are proportionate to the space without overwhelming it. In smaller rooms, choose smaller, sleek, and space-saving designs, while on the other hand, bigger rooms can easily allow bulkier furniture with relative ease.
  5. Focus on Highlights: Identify and highlight architectural central points of your humble abode such as fireplaces, large windows, or living space. Once identified, you can easily arrange your furniture to complement and augment these features, which will draw attention to them while maintaining a uniform layout.
  6. Experiment with arrangements: Don't be afraid to experiment with different furniture layouts until you find the best-suited arrangement. Consider how many people you have at your place or will/can host, conversation zones, and visual balance when arranging your pieces. Oxford Furniture's exclusive and wide range of products to pick from will ensure that you’ll find the right combination for your space.
  7. Additional accessories arrangement: Once your best-suited furniture pieces are in place, add further flavors to them by using accessories such as throw pillows, rugs, and paintings or sculptures to amalgamate the room together and inject your personality into your comfy space.
  8. Dual-Purpose Furniture: To utilize the space optimally consider the functionality in smaller spaces with dual-purpose furniture such as sleeper sofas or recliners. These versatile pieces help save space without compromising on comfort or style.
