Add hidden storage
Choose furniture with built-in storage to save space. A trunk or storage ottoman as a coffee table works well. Along the perimeter of the room, try a small dresser instead of a console table to increase storage options.
Choose small scale furniture
There are more living room furniture that full sized, bulky armchairs sofas. Antique shops are a great place to look for furniture on a small scale, because the average size of the room was generally quite low until the last half-century or more. Look for small sofas, loveseats and chairs that can work for your space.

A pair of Louis XVI armchairs sit in front of the sofa, with a trunk as a coffee table in between. An ancient récamier is positioned on the wall diagonally across the sofa, with a thin console table in front of him. Seats :. Six

look up
If your small living room is blessed with high ceilings, fully enjoy the extra space! While the vertical space does not contribute to squeeze in an extra seat, drawing the eye upward will help give the impression that your room is much larger and grander it seem otherwise. Fill the vertical space with an eclectic art gallery.
completely fill a corner
This is a bit paradoxical, but if you have a small seating area, sometimes with the greatest furniture can actually be felt more. Why? A corner sofa with generous dimensions (like the one shown here) is comfortable and able to life safety loads - but because he is as one piece, it helps purest part. Modern sofa corner with clean straight lines works best in a small space than a upholstered version.
In this room, a custom corner sofa is in a corner with a pair of leather folding stools pulled in almost form a conversation group. Complete the group with another small chair if you have the room. Seats: seven or eight

Downsize the couch
In some areas a full size sofa just will not do. Try a lighter love seat or small sofa for size instead. Choose one with clean lines and exposed legs airiest look for.

Try backless sofa
in an open space, the best position for the couch is sometimes not on the wall, but in the middle of the room. But unless your sofa is quite small (photo above), a sofa in the middle of a small room can really swallow space. A backless sofa is a stylish alternative and can be used on both sides - quite a bonus when the seats are limited options. And if you want to use it in a larger room, one day, it can act as a divider between two rest areas.
Add plants
as the wallpaper and mirrors, plants are a wonderful way to add depth to a small lounge. greenery softens the corners and deceives the eye into thinking there is more to the room than there really was. The plants are particularly effective in corners and beside or behind chairs and sofas.
Here, a backless couch floats in the center of this open space. A pair of upholstered chairs with a small table between is under a row of windows in front of the sofa. A small side table that can double as an extra seat is sitting next to the couch - and for some, the backless sofa perches can handle two people on each side. Places: four to seven

Use multifunctional furniture
In a small room, each piece has to earn its keep. Consider using ottomans that function as a coffee table or extra seating, side nesting tables that can be moved around as needed or small stools that can be versatile seats or tables.
In this room a sleek, armless sofa fleet slightly away from the wall; two great low ottomans double as coffee tables and seats. Seats :. Two to four

Build in storage
instead of leaving a lot of small pieces of furniture (a library here, a hotel there) eating space, bite the bullet and spend while a storage wall. A floor to ceiling storage wall can be customized to contain everything from books to a media center - perhaps even a pull-down office!
Keep a supply of spare seats
In a true small space, it may not be possible to have as many seating options you want. One way around this problem is by storing some coffee folding chairs or stools stacked in a closet (or under a bed), where you can easily take them out when company comes.
This integrated storage wall is a hideaway TV, shelves and cabinets; a small-scale love seat is opposite. Eames lounge chair a low plywood has been dragged before the wall without blocking media storage. Seats :. Three

Skip the couch
Who says a living should have a sofa at all? If space is limited, try circling two, three or four chairs around a coffee table instead. For more flexibility, make a coffee table topped tray-shaped ottoman that can be used as a seat, or add an ottoman or stool to the Arrangement.
In this room, a coffee table, a round is in the center of the room with three chairs around it.
Check why a suite in three parts is not necessary

Try a room 'invisible'
acrylic, Lucite and glass are wonderful materials to be used in a small room because they take zero space visual. Try a coffee table or side nesting tables with a waterfall edge in one of these light materials.
Put the seats down in front of the fireplace
Put on a pair of small seats backless - stools, X-benches, couches - in front of the fireplace in a small room to sneak in some extra seating without blocking the focal point of the room. In fact, far from blocking the fireplace, a pair of cute, low seats may actually make the area more welcoming appearance home ... and they come with hidden storage, great!
Here, a pair of chairs are placed in front of a bay window and a couch chesterfield long against the wall in front of the fireplace with a slim, clear coffee table. Set a pair of small storage ottomans upholstered in front of the fireplace. Places :. September
