Q: Hi Stacie, Is there a guide or formula to how much space you should leave between your furniture? -D
A: You should always treat the wall around a piece of furniture like you would the matting around a picture. Do not try to fill up all the space around it. Leave enough space around your furniture so that a person can move about it freely. Also be sure there is enough space to pull out a chair in the dining room without hitting the walls. Here are a few guidelines:
COFFEE TABLE: Allow18 to 24 inches between the sofa and coffee table
TV VIEWING: Comfortable TV viewing- is three times the size of the screen. (i.e: to comfortably watch a 30" TV screen you would need to be seated 90 inches a way).
DINING ROOM CHAIR: Allow 24" to 30" between the back of a dining room chair and the wall.-
BED: The clearance between the bed and wall should be at least 24 inches
