Small Condo, Big Style: Living Room Layouts that Work

Small Condo, Big Style: Living Room Layouts that Work

Condo living rooms can feel tight—until you use scale, sightlines, and smart storage to your advantage.

Furniture that earns its keep

  • Apartment-size sofa (170–200 cm) with slim arms.

  • Nesting coffee tables for flexible surface space.

  • Storage ottoman doubles as seating and hides clutter.

  • Open-base media unit keeps the floor visible (feels larger).

Layout tricks

  • Float the sofa a few inches from the wall to add depth.

  • Angle a chair to open the traffic path.

  • Use a large rug (yes, large): furniture should sit on the rug to unify the zone.

Visual spaciousness

  • Choose leggy furniture to show more flooring.

  • Mirrors opposite windows maximize natural light.

  • Keep a cohesive palette: three neutrals + one accent tone.

Quick wins from Iconic Living

  • Try our condo-friendly sectionals and modular storage that scale up or down as you move.
