There are some best practices for arranging living room furniture to create a harmonious feel. The first step is to choose a focal point. Will this be an existing architectural feature, like a fireplace or built-in bookshelves? You could opt for your television as a focal point.
Then, arrange your furniture according to your focal point and focus on creating conversation areas. A sofa set for living room is great for this. Think about what it would like to be to sit in each spot and what your sight lines would be. Also, consider where hard surfaces are necessary for coasters and snacks. Are they conveniently placed throughout the room? Plan out where to put storage. Sketching out potential arrangements on a sheet of paper can be helpful.
You’ll also need to consider your favorite design style. What color palettes and materials (wood, metal, glass, textured fabrics, etc.) are characteristic of your style? What shapes and silhouettes are the signature for that type of interior design? In our recommendations, you’ll see sofa sets that are perfect for modern, glam, eclectic, and contemporary living rooms.
Why Choose a Sofa Set?
A living room sofa set is a great option when you’re planning out furniture arrangements and an interior design plan for your living room. Sofa sets have many benefits and can help you achieve a harmonious look, instead of a hodgepodge of mismatched furniture. Not only do the materials and colors go together, but the silhouettes and scale of the furniture pieces will be cohesive. Here are some more pros and cons of a furniture set for living room.
Pros:
✓ You can achieve a harmonious look in terms of materials, color, style, silhouettes, and scale.
✓ You can minimize the decision fatigue you may feel when redesigning a whole room or house.
✓ You can finance a sofa set, enabling you to furnish an entire room at once.
✓ You can typically enjoy the convenience of a single delivery, rather than multiple deliveries across a span of time.
Cons:
✗ If you like to collect antique, vintage, or unique pieces, a sofa set can limit your freedom to mix and match. However, you can still do this with accessories throughout the room.

For the glam homes, we have the Goddess Sofa and Chaise set.

How to Choose a Sofa Set that Fits Your Style
Next, let's discuss three tips and tricks to find the right sofa set for you, in your budget.
- Consider the upholstery material. Many fabric sofas are easy to clean, and you can find performance fabric that will stand up to kids and pets. Some fabric sofas add texture to the room, which is great for a boho, coastal, or nature-inspired living room. Leather is luxurious, durable, and hypoallergenic.
- Think about the purpose of your space. If you want your living room to be a place to lounge, consider incorporating reclining furniture or a chaise. If you want a more formal, polished look, leather, tufting, and rolled arms are elegant details to elevate your room.
- Look for sales and consider financing options. If you are local to the Las Vegas area, Walker Furniture has an ever-rotating list of current promotions and the Walker Outlet Showroom and Clearance Center. They also offer several in-house financing opportunities.
