An L-shaped sofa can transform a living room – if it is the right size. Follow these steps before you order.
1. Measure the walls
Measure both walls where the sofa will sit, and mark doors, windows, switchboards and the TV unit.
2. Decide left or right orientation
Stand facing the sofa position: if the long side should be on your left, you need a “left-hand” L. Getting this wrong is the most common mistake.
3. Seating capacity
Allow roughly 2 feet of width per person for comfortable seating. A 5- or 6-seater L-shape suits most family living rooms.
4. Leave walking space
Keep about 18 inches between the sofa and the centre table and around 30 inches for walking paths.
5. Check delivery access
Measure lift doors, staircases and main doors. A good manufacturer can make the sofa in detachable sections.
6. Choose depth and comfort
Deeper seats are great for lounging; standard depth suits elders. A chaise end adds a place to stretch out.
