Furniture is both a daily necessity for family life and the main interior decoration. Furniture is an important part of indoor furnishings. It combines with the four major surfaces of walls, floors, bedspreads, and curtains to form the basic style of indoor decoration. The selection and arrangement of furniture is an important part of home decoration. Generally speaking, furniture accounts for about 45% of the housing area. How to make the furniture arrangement orderly and reasonable, there are three main factors, namely functional factors, economic factors and psychological factors. In layman's terms, it depends on the specific circumstances of each family. For example, the size of the housing area, the orientation of the room, the functional needs of different rooms (bedroom, living room, kitchen, etc.), economic conditions, family members’ occupational nature, living habits, personal hobbies and cultural accomplishments, etc. It should be carefully designed and arranged according to functional needs, combined with economic conditions and psychological needs, and according to the location and people. Generally, indoor furniture layout design can be roughly divided into five categories: 1. Room plan structure layout 2. Furniture layout 3. Furniture layout 4. Plant layout 5. Other equipment indoor layout Among them, arranging and arranging furniture is indoor furniture Arrangement is an extremely important part of interior design work. Usually, except for spaces such as transportation passages, most spaces are difficult to put into use and difficult to identify their functional properties before the furniture is arranged, let alone the actual effect of their functions. If the design proposal is a definite architectural space, the size, shape and position of the walls have been fixed, then the first consideration in the design activity is to arrange the furniture according to the function. Even when the space being designed is uncertain, that is, the building is unfinished or the space is an open area without partition walls (such as modern office buildings), some functional divisions and furniture plans often precede the partition walls that define the rooms. . Therefore, the furniture plan is the first step in interior design. In rooms such as living rooms and bedrooms, the location of furniture and the passage of movement need to be considered when designing. The scale and shape of the space must also be considered when arranging. In interior design, the quantity, size of furniture and the space it occupies are key factors in whether the entire space design is reasonable. In some other solutions, the arrangement of furniture may have a strong impact on the treatment of space, which means that the indoor environment is adjusted by the arrangement of furniture. 1. There are several ways to arrange indoor furniture: 1.1. Smooth lines. The flowing beauty of furniture arrangement is reflected by the arrangement and combination of furniture and the connection of lines. Straight lines flow slower and give a sense of solemnity. People with a calm personality can arrange the furniture as neatly and uniformly as possible to form linear changes, making the room feel elegant and calm; curved lines flow quickly, giving people a sense of activity. People with a lively personality can match the furniture with more changes to form obvious ups and downs, making people feel lively and enthusiastic in the room. The lines of furniture should also match the lines of the house. If the house is narrow, you can arrange the furniture from high to low to create a visual change, so that the room will appear spacious. 1.2. Harmonious environment The size and quantity of furniture should be coordinated with the living space. If the living area is large, you can choose larger furniture and increase the quantity appropriately. Too little furniture can easily create an empty feeling indoors and increase people's sense of loneliness; if the living area is small, you should choose some exquisite and light furniture. Too much and too big furniture can make people feel suffocated and oppressive. Note that the quantity should be determined according to the living room area, and do not blindly pursue the number of pieces and sets of furniture. The grade of furniture and housing should also be coordinated. High-end modern residences should be equipped with fashionable furniture; ancient deep courtyards should be equipped with antique hardwood furniture; ordinary residences should be equipped with furniture that matches them. For larger rooms, in addition to the main furniture, you can also choose some small coffee tables, wardrobes, etc. to fill the gaps in the corners; for smaller rooms, you should choose modular furniture, folding furniture or multi-purpose furniture. When the furniture matches the house properly, it will produce a visual beauty. 1.3. Uniform style. It is best to purchase furniture in matching styles to achieve harmony and unity in size, color, and style of the furniture, as well as graceful lines and beautiful shapes. Furniture and other equipment and decorations should also be unified in style and organically combined. For example, a flat right-angle color TV should be equipped with a modern style modular cabinet, and around it, it should be equipped with exquisite sofas, coffee tables, pots and bowls, etc. The materials, styles, patterns, and colors of decorative items such as curtains, lampshades, bedspreads, and tablecloths should also echo the furniture and equipment.
If the combination is not good, even high-end furniture will not show its characteristics and lose its due luster.
1.4. Color coordination The colors of indoor furniture and walls, roofs, and decorations should be coordinated, as well as the colors of indoors and outdoors. The color combination should make people feel happy. Light colors are generally suitable, and no more than two colors should be used as much as possible. If the walls are light-colored, the furniture should also be light-colored, and the bedspreads and curtains should also use elegant and bright patterns, which will look more comfortable. If you choose a warmer color, such as a room with brown roof, red walls and brown floor, you should choose black furniture, red decorations or golden fabrics to appear auspicious and exciting. When decorating, you should also pay attention to conciseness and hygiene, giving people a bright, clean and spotless feeling. 1.5. Reasonable layout. The spatial layout of furniture in the room must be reasonable. When placing furniture, we must consider indoor flow routes to make people's entry and exit activities quick and convenient, without twists and turns, and without causing inconvenience to the use of furniture. Factors such as lighting and ventilation should also be considered when placing them, so as not to affect the penetration of light and air circulation. The placement of the bed is generally the key to indoor arrangement, and it should be placed in a place with weak light. If the room is smaller, one or both sides can be placed against the wall to reduce the occupied area; if the room is larger, it can be placed so that it can be placed on both sides. Large standing cabinets should be kept away from windows to avoid large area shadows. Lower furniture should be placed in front of the door to avoid a sense of oppression. 1.6. Balanced placement. It is best to place furniture in a balanced and symmetrical manner. For example, bedside tables of the same size are placed on both sides of the bed, and sofas of the same size are placed on both sides of the coffee table to achieve coordination and comfort. Of course, the high and low levels can also be coordinated and well-proportioned to give people a sense of movement and change. In addition, the floor plan and facade layout should be organically combined, and the furniture should be evenly arranged indoors. Do not place too much furniture on one side or one corner while leaving the other corner or side empty. Don’t cluster tall furniture together so as not to create a strong contrast with low furniture. As much as possible, the height of the furniture should be connected and the sizes should match. Decorative flowers, bonsais, calligraphy, paintings and decorations should also be placed in plain corners and places. This can not only make up for the flaws and dullness in the layout, but also increase the warmth and aesthetic appeal of the room. Based on the above principles, when making specific arrangements, we must first consider the shape and size of the room, as well as the indoor ventilation and natural lighting conditions, the needs for travel and activities, and adjust measures to local conditions. Low furniture such as desks and sofas should be placed near the window with the best indoor light. Tall cabinets should be placed against the wall so as not to affect ventilation and walking paths. The height and size of the furniture should be balanced, and should not be placed in a haphazard manner, causing people to feel uneven and out of balance. In order to make the furniture layout reasonable, it is best to use the method of trial placement of small samples before placing them. Use hard paper to cut small furniture samples for trial placement. After selecting the best plan, proceed with the layout according to the plan. In short, furniture arrangement requires more thinking and practice, and constantly creates arrangements that are both changing and consistent with aesthetic rules, giving people a fresh, lively, relaxed and friendly feeling. 2. Several Principles of Furniture Arrangement Furniture is the main part of the room arrangement and has a great influence on the beautification and decoration of the room. Unreasonable furniture arrangement is not only unsightly but also impractical, and can even bring all kinds of inconveniences to life.

In addition to leaving a certain area for walking activities, sofas, tables, chairs, etc., furniture can be placed in this area Arranged according to zones, the room can be used rationally and give people a comfortable and refreshing feeling. Tall furniture and low furniture should also be arranged in coordination with each other. Combination cabinets with the same height are more rigorous than varied. Too much fluctuation in furniture can easily create a messy feeling. Therefore, do not place beds, sofas and other low furniture close to coats. Cabinets to avoid a sense of imbalance. It is best to use chests of drawers, food cabinets, bedside tables and other furniture as tall furniture, and low furniture as transitional furniture, giving people a gradual visual extension from low to high, so as to obtain a vivid and rhythmic visual effect. In short, the layout of furniture should be proportional in size, high and low, and well-proportioned. If there are few and small furniture on one side, you can use bonsai, knick-knacks and wall decorations to achieve a balanced effect. 3.
