The most effective layouts position the sofa with its back towards the kitchen or dining area, anchor the seating on a large rug and keep a clear walkway around the outside of the group. In this guide we share layout ideas for different open plan shapes, from rear extensions and long through rooms to compact new build flats, explaining how to choose between corner sofas, matching sets and facing sofas. We also look at how console tables, shelving, lighting and colour help separate zones while keeping the space connected, and we cover common mistakes such as floating furniture that is too small or blocking natural light. Answers to frequent questions about sofa placement complete the guide."}
