Selecting the Best Formal Living Room Furniture for You
Buying Formal living room furniture at Rent-A-Center is simple. Selecting the best fit for you can be tricky. Follow these steps, and make the process easier.
Start by measuring your living room. How long and how wide is the space? You can count your steps or use a tape measure for more precise measurements. It doesn't really matter how you measure, just as long as you're consistent and you measure your furniture the same throughout. Being consistent prevents unwanted surprises! Measuring your living room will help you pick out Formal living room furniture that perfectly fits your living room.
Next, draw a diagram of the living room and the pieces you want to include in the room. Are you leaving a minimum of one yard (about three feet) of space between pieces of living room furniture? Leave any less and you'll probably feel cramped walking through your home's primary space. Cramped spaces do not equate to comfort.
Think about the furniture pieces that your family use regularly. How are they used? It’s time to take a look at function and style. If your living room is where your son's soccer team hangs out after practice, it may be better to purchase living room furniture that can withstand more wear and tear and is simple to clean. If the living room is where your family has weekly movie nights or do their daily assignments, versatility and comfort should be your primary focus! Whatever the case, Rent-A-Center has the Formal living room furniture you need.
Then, shop for the basics! Some people have more living room furniture, some prefer a more minimalistic approach. There's no wrong way to build your perfect living room! In general, living rooms are decorated with sofas, side tables, armchairs or loveseats, and a central coffee table. Ottomans, plants, and area rugs can all add comfort and ambiance to your living room furniture setup. Think of these items as living room accessories!
Living room furniture basics:
Sofa: Sofas are the foundation of any living room. Typically, it’s the primary piece in the room. Be sure to consider its size, shape, color, silhouette, and material.
Armchair: An armchair is a cozy, comfortable chair meant for leisure. It’s carefully upholstered and has built-in support on each side, so you can rest your arms in style. Armchairs are great for reading or watching TV.
Loveseat: A loveseat is a miniature sofa. Typically, they’re designed to support two people. A loveseat is essentially a "two-seater" couch!
Side Table: Side tables can go on either side of a sofa, armchair, or loveseat. They are smaller than the coffee table, which is the primary table in a living room. A side table is a great place to set a book, a cup of coffee, or the TV controller.
Coffee Table: A coffee table is a low-lying table that goes directly in front of the sofa. Coffee tables are made to be a convenient location on which you set small items, like books, games, or drinks.
