Farmhouse Living Room Furniture | 2 Ways

For a year we lived with our living room set up out in one layout. I enjoyed it and it worked well for us. Until one day I was itching for a switch!

At first I thought it was the size of our furniture in comparison to our room that was bothering me. However, after deciding I didn’t want to have to go out and buy all new farmhouse living room furniture, I thought outside of the box!

So today I’m sharing two ways to arrange living room furniture. They both work well for conversational seating and look balanced. However, I am partial to our most current arrangement! So let’s take a look.

Layout 1

Our first arrangement positioned the couch (Ikea Ektorp in light beige) against our entryway console table. On the other side of the coffee table are two seersucker chairs and a makeshift pantry.

This layout worked well to allow our picture window to take center stage and let in ample light.

It also worked best for the size of our room since our large 10×15 rug has more length than width. This layout allowed all the farmhouse living room furniture to sit nicely on top of the rug with ease.

Layout 2

Next, here is layout option number 2! This layout positions our couch against the window with our chairs opposite. When we first moved in I didn’t even consider this layout because I didn’t want our chairs to have their backs to the rest of the house. However, after living with it for a month I’m loving it!

This arrangement actually feels more open and inviting because the furniture is more spread out. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that the backs of our chairs are actually very pretty.

This layout also allows the entryway to feel larger. We are now able to see through into the entryway easier without the couch against the console table.

{If you missed it, you can see how I transformed our entryway step by step in my series on how to create spaces you love here.}

Now I’m loving how easy it is to highlight all my favorite farmhouse living room furniture without it feeling like the space is tight. And I’ve had fun decorating this new layout. My favorite farmhouse pillows can be found here. Aren’t they beautiful!?

This is such a simple way to spice up a space that is feeling boring. I feel like I have a whole new room without spending a dime. So if you have a space that you have grown tired of, try changing your furniture layout! It might just be the simplest way to create a whole new room!
