Ideas for a home that works for you

Practical furniture tips for living, dining, sleeping and working at home.

Living room proportions

Choose a centre table that leaves comfortable space around your seating. Match its height to the sofa and keep everyday essentials within reach.

An ottoman can serve as a footrest or an extra seat. Check its dimensions and upholstery against the furniture you already own.

Measure your counter or table height before selecting chairs or stools. Allow space behind each seat so people can sit down and get up easily.

Start with the bed size and wardrobe clearance. Keep bedside storage practical and use a small selection of complementary finishes.

List what you need to store before choosing a cabinet. Compare shelf spacing, drawer access and the space needed for doors to open.

Place your desk where light supports reading without glare. Choose seating that feels comfortable and leave room for cables and daily supplies.
