When you have a small space it is critical that you plan out your space well. There needs to be a clear space between each piece of furniture. You need to have about two or three feet between your sofas, armchairs and other furniture, and around two feet between the front of your armchair or sofa and the coffee table, to give you room to stand up and move around.

Armchair dimensions

When it comes to picking right arm chair for a small space you need to make sure that the armchair isn’t so big that it dominates the whole room. As well as size you need to take the style into consideration. Make sure you choose an armchair that has thin arms and visible legs, instead of the legs being hidden away. Also, don’t go for curvy designs, stick stick to straight, clean cut edges. If you really struggle for space you might want to consider an armchair with no arms at all, it won’t give you a lot more space but it will make it look like there is a little more room.

When you head out to buy your new armchair, be sure that you know how much space you have available, take measurements and measure the armchairs that you are considering buying. Don’t just hope that it looking the right size will mean that it is. Not only are the external dimensions important, you need to make sure that the dimensions of the seating area are sufficient and you can sit on the chair comfortably.
