Create a Stunning Living Room Arrangement with a Wall of Windows 🪟

Do you have a wall of windows in your living room? If you do, you are very lucky.

A wall of windows is a stunning architectural detail, and it provides you with a fantastic opportunity to create a stunning living room arrangement.

Whether you have a wall of windows in your living room that looks out to your backyard, a balcony, or a beautiful view of the city you can create a beautiful and practical living room arrangement.

1. Start with a blank slate.

One of the benefits of interior design is that you don’t have to work with what you have.

Instead, you can start with a blank slate and design a room from scratch.

This is especially helpful when you’re working with a room that has a unique layout, like this one with a wall of windows.

Instead of trying to work around the windows, I decided to make the windows the focal point of the room.

The view from the windows is stunning, so I wanted to create a design that would draw the eye to the outside.

2. Choose a focal point.

When you have a wall of windows in your living room, you may not have as many walls to work with when it comes to arranging furniture.

Choose a focal point for the room, and then arrange your furniture around it.

In this case, the stunning fireplace is the focal point, and the furniture is arranged to make the most of the cozy fire.

3. Create a floor plan.

Now that you’ve taken some initial measurements, it’s time to create a floor plan.

You can do this yourself on graph paper, or use an app like Roomstyler to create a digital floor plan.

When you are creating your floor plan, make sure to include the following:

• Dimensions of the room

• Dimensions of windows and doors

• Locations of outlets, light switches, and heating and cooling vents

• Location of cable and internet outlets

• Location of built-in features, like bookshelves or cabinetry

4. Add living room furniture.

Now you can start adding your living room furniture. I like to start with the rug and then add the sofa.

The rug will help define the living space and give you a good starting point for furniture placement.

Then, add a coffee table in front of the sofa and add chairs and side tables to complete the look.

5. Decorate the space.

Last but not least, it’s time to decorate your space! We love adding a large area rug to anchor the furniture arrangement.

An area rug is a great way to bring in color and pattern to the room.

Then, we like to add in a few decorative pillows and throw blankets to the couch.

These are easy to swap out seasonally or whenever you want to mix things up.

Finally, we like to add in a few decorative accessories to the coffee table, like a stack of books, a plant, and a decorative tray.

This is a great way to add personality to the room.

6. Install window treatments.

When a wall of windows is the main focal point of your living room, you’ll want to make sure you have window treatments that can be easily adjusted to filter light and heat and provide privacy when needed.

Use floor-to-ceiling drapery rods to create a clean, modern look and use drapery hooks for easy opening and closing.

If you don’t want to use drapery, consider using window shades or blinds that can be adjusted to your liking.

7. Add finishing touches.

Last but not least, add finishing touches to your living room arrangement.

This is your chance to bring in extra seating, like a cozy armchair, or extra tables, like a coffee table or side tables.

It’s also a great time to add in some decor, like a vase of flowers, a stack of books, or a beautiful piece of art.

Just be careful not to clutter the space. It’s important to leave some empty space in the room to keep it feeling open and inviting.

Create a living room arrangement that complements your wall of windows

If you are lucky enough to have a wall of windows in your living room, you will want to make sure to arrange your furniture in a way that doesn’t block the view.

A living room arrangement that complements a wall of windows will usually have the main seating facing the windows.

This creates a focal point with the view, and the furniture arrangement will open up the room.

Conclusion

You don’t have to spend a fortune to add window treatments to your living room. If you have a wall of windows, you can use a single panel curtain on each window. This will create a streamlined look that doesn’t block the view. You can also use bamboo blinds to add texture and interest to your living room.
