Soft furnishing is a technical job.

But many people easily make mistakes when it comes to color and layout. Take the sofa for example. Many families only have the sofa in their living room, leaving the surrounding area bare, which is both wasteful and ugly.

But I don’t know what to put?!

They call it "This is minimalist style!!" .

Little do people know that there is a lot of room for development on both sides of the sofa. The clever design not only improves the appearance but is also very practical.

Below I share with you "6 real case suggestions and references" for your reference. I hope everyone can create a practical and beautiful effect.

⑴ Cabinet air conditioner + floor lamp

There are empty spaces on both sides of the sofa, I don’t know what to put?!

When buying an air conditioner, should I choose a wall-mounted or a standing air conditioner? !

If you have these two worries, you might as well consider placing the air conditioner on the left side of the sofa. This will avoid leaving unsightly marks by drilling holes in the wall and will also make it more convenient to use.

After all, many people are used to lying on the sofa to play games, watch TV, or even just lie quietly on the sofa to enjoy the breeze and listen to music...

In this way, we put the cabinet air conditioner on the left side of the sofa and install the floor lamp on the right side, which can achieve the effect of setting the atmosphere and providing lighting, allowing us to enjoy our leisure time more comfortably.

But please note that if there is no coffee table in front of the sofa, we can also place a chest of drawers between the floor lamp and the sofa, which can not only improve the overall appearance, but also provide storage space. It is also a good idea to place mobile phones or flower arrangements on it.

⑵Side table + table lamp

Nowadays, many young people adopt a living room-less design when decorating their homes, which not only increases the space for activities but also makes cleaning more convenient.

But if you have guests over or just want to have a drink, you may lack shelves. In this case, you can try placing side machines on both sides of the sofa.

As a storage cabinet, you can usually place remote controls, mobile phone chargers, etc., or you can place a table lamp to match the color tone of the living room, create a warm and healing atmosphere, and dispel loneliness.

Moreover, the small side table can be moved at will. When there are guests at home, we can put it in any position according to needs and use it as a coffee table. It is very flexible to use.

⑶ Cabinet + large potted plant

Although green plants may wither and fall, they give people a sense of surprise, making people feel the throbbing of life and become happy unconsciously.

So if you don’t know what to put on both sides of the sofa, you might as well try a chest of drawers + large potted plants to add some vitality and vigor to the monotonous life.

At the same time, relying on the natural purification ability of plants, in addition to formaldehyde and second-hand smoke generated by decoration, it can also continuously release oxygen, increase the oxygen content of indoor air, regulate the body and mind, and release fatigue.

Not only that , if you pair it with a chest of drawers with storage function , you can easily get rid of the burden brought by traditional decoration design, making the living room more lively and the decoration design more practical.

⑷ Curtain box + projector

With the development of the times, people are becoming more and more disgusted with television. On the one hand, it is because TV dolls are charged, making it affordable for ordinary families but unaffordable to use them.

On the other hand, the operation is becoming more and more complicated. As the main audience, the elderly and children simply cannot understand it, young people don’t have time to watch it, and the presence of TV will increase the trouble of storage and cleaning.

Therefore, more and more families use projectors instead of TVs. If you are the same, please place the projector next to the sofa, which can make full use of every inch of space. It is also more convenient to control and enjoy the immersive drama watching.

It is recommended that if the curtain box is on the left side of the sofa, you should place the projector on the right side of the sofa. Placing the sofa close to the curtain will not only make the layout more reasonable, but also play a better role in blocking light and protecting privacy.

⑸Fishing table lamp + hanging cabinet

Lighting is a great way to create atmosphere.

Cabinets are important tools for storage.

So we can put these things on both sides of the sofa at the same time to meet the basic needs of life and add a breath of life.

Especially when the sofa is facing the door, since you are going to install a shoe cabinet, it is better to extend a suspended cabinet based on the shoe cabinet.

It can be used as a storage platform for tea and charging, and it is also convenient for daily cleaning. You can even use the built-in drawers to store some sundries, making the place cleaner and tidier.

⑹ Side table (table lamp) + large potted plant

Plants are a kind of living life. With them, simple decoration will become vibrant and poetic.

And lighting is the best "medical beauty", which can enhance the beauty of ten points to twelve points.

So what if you don’t know what to put on both sides of the sofa?

It is better to place a large potted plant on one side and a side table on the other side, and place table lamps or various sundries according to actual life needs to make the living room more homely.
