Choosing the right size avoids returns. Before buying, measure the space and also the doors, corridors, stairs and lift the item will need to pass through.
Sofas
2-seater: approx. 140–180 cm wide · 3-seater: approx. 180–230 cm. Leave 40–60 cm of free space in front of the sofa.
Beds and mattresses
Single 90×190/200 cm · Double 140×190/200 or 150×190/200 cm · King 160×200 or 180×200 cm. Allow about 60–70 cm on each side to move around.
Dining tables
Allow about 60 cm of width per person: a 160 cm table seats 6 people comfortably. Leave about 90 cm between the table and the wall to pull out the chairs.
Rugs
In the living room, the rug should at least sit under the front legs of the sofa. Under the dining table, it should extend about 60 cm beyond the table on each side.
Canvas prints
Above a sofa or a bed, a print (or set) about 2/3 of the width of the furniture looks balanced. Hang the centre of the print about 145–155 cm from the floor.
The dimensions of each item are on the product page, under "Specifications", when the manufacturer provides them.
