Lighting

When considering the perfect sofa for your
living room in South Florida, it is important to know ahead of time what wall your television will be placed on in relation to where the light comes in the room. If the light comes in a window behind you and faces the television, you will not want your main sofa to have their back to the window. This will cause the light to bounce off of the television and fade out the picture on the television screen making it hard to see when watching television in the daylight hours. Badcock Furnishing also covers a wide selection of home décor in South Florida such as end tables and
accessory lamps to complete your look and add extra light in areas where needed.
Type of sofa and Measurements
Sofas come in many different shapes, styles, and sizes with different patterns and fabrics. Taking measurements of your living room beforehand can help you to determine the size and shape that will best suit your living area. For example, wrap around sofas are great and can be a favorite when paired with a matching ottoman, but if the room is small, you may want to consider buying two or three separate pieces. This will allow you to move them closer together and create more space if needed for parties or occasions. Depending on the room colors, it would also be nice to coordinate that patterns you chose
in your sofa so that room comes together well. Different fabrics are good for different environments as well. Leather couches are usually better for hotter climates and repelling pet hair. Upholstered couches can also be nice as they tend to be plusher, but can be warmer in the summer months.
Placement and Television and Wall Space
Strategically placing your television in relation to where you will have your sofas placed is smart to consider before setting up the television in your room. You will want to have a clear, unobstructed view of the television from all of your sitting areas if possible. You could also consider making the television flexible in case you need to turn it to face a particular sofa. You want to make sure the sun will not shine directly behind your sofa and towards the television blocking out your television picture. You will also want to leave adequate room between sofas if you will need to be walking between and around them. Considering these things in your sofa placement will ensure a comfortable living space. Lastly, you will want to know the length of the walls that you will be placing the sofa on to ensure that your sofa is not longer than the length of the wall.
