Living room furniture, sized to your wall
Sofa, coffee table, rug and curtains, sized to the wall you have and the way you sit.
In short
A Home4U living room plan sizes the sofa, coffee table, rug and curtains to your wall and walkway. We start from 45 cm between sofa and table, a 90 cm route through the room and curtains hung 15 cm above the window.

SofaSofa
Three-seat or corner, sized to the wall and to the walkway past it.
How much space does a living room need?
Start from 45 cm between sofa and coffee table and 90 cm main walkway through the room. Your floor plan decides the rest.
Between sofa and coffee tableClose enough to reach a cup, far enough for knees.
Main walkway through the roomKeep it clear of chair backs and the door swing.
Curtain rail above the windowThen 20–25 cm past each side, so curtains open off the glass.

Living room questions.
Still unsure? Send us the room and ask.
What size rug do I need for a living room?
Big enough for the front legs of every seat to sit on it. In most Irish living rooms that is 200 × 300 cm or 160 × 230 cm for a smaller room.
How high should curtains hang?
Fix the rail about 15 cm above the window and 20–25 cm past each side, with curtains just touching the floor. The room looks taller and the glass stays clear when they are open.
Can you plan around a sofa I already own?
Yes. Send a photo and its size; we plan the rest of the room around it and move that budget to other pieces, as in the sample plan.
Do you deliver living room furniture outside Dublin?
Dublin, Kildare, Meath and Wicklow first; other counties on request, priced to your Eircode. See delivery and costs.
Send us the room as it is.
A floor plan, a phone photo, or the one piece you want to keep. We come back with a layout and a buying list.
