Aligning a sofa with your back in front of a window is often
the logical decision and, above all, the right choice. The walls in the room
are more suitable for a flat screen television, or a television wall or
entertainment center. If you really prefer it cozy, you can also install a
fireplace there and thus delimit another area of the room. However, a sofa in
front of the window gives you the opportunity to enjoy the view during the day
and to have an ideal interior view at night while relaxing or entertaining.

A large couch in a small room or a sofa in the middle of a
room is usually in front of a central point, because both are a comfortable
seat and the usual first choice when sitting. If there is nothing on the wall
opposite the window or behind the couch, a television or a large painting is of
course also included. When sitting on the sofa you will want to see something
without having to turn your head several times. Other seating in the room
should also offer a wide view of the central wall.

When you place a sofa in front of a window, however, you
also have to think about the necessary privacy during the night. Such a piece
of furniture, which is at least 30 centimeters from the television, also offers
space for curtains or drapes so that they can be closed properly. You can also
use this room for dusting and cleaning. So make sure that the curtains or
blinds are dark enough to ensure nighttime privacy. Curtains should be
sufficiently lined for privacy, lightfastness and insulation.

For this reason, you can combine the sofa in front of the
window with a sofa table in a large or long living room. This enables you to
create a practical and flexible device that you can easily redesign. A set of
table lamps on both ends of the coffee table, for example, also provide
additional reading light, while the view on the window remains clear.
Combination with carpet and plants

A carpet in the middle of the room or partially under the sofa
can draw attention to this area. This also allows the window area to serve as a
secondary focus and bring the beauty of the outside in. This also makes the
room look more cozy, since a carpet gives the appropriate warmth. The right
plants also contribute to the desired ambience.

A sofa in front of a window is obviously not the only piece
of furniture that you can use to furnish a living room. Other upholstered
furniture or furnishings can create a generally pleasant atmosphere in the
room. For example, arrange the chairs inside to the sofa so that you can have a
conversation or bring them close to the couch for a social conversation.

Add extra seating on the walls if the room is exceptionally
large, for example. A coffee table in front of the couch sets this area as an
anchor for the room, which works well because you'd be more likely to sit on it
than on a chair. Also try to keep the center of the room, except the carpet,
open. In this way you ensure unhindered and naturally flowing freedom of
movement, while at the same time creating a feeling of energy in the room.

If you place your couch in front of a window, you can
brighten up the entire living room and supply it with energy. Looking at the
handcraft of nature in front of your window replaces art. Natural daylight will
illuminate your sofa in front of the window and the surrounding furniture,
creating a stronger focus. This cannot be offered by a couch or the window
alone. So if you place upholstered furniture under the window, an additional
wall becomes free for other furniture or your television.
Practical considerations

What factors should you consider when deciding to position
your couch in front of a window? The window becomes the focal point above your
sofa, so the view outside should do the job. All natural elements such as
trees, forests, flowers, mountains or water are natural works of art for
interior design. However, if your window faces a parking lot or the wall of
another building, you may want to think again before putting a couch there.

How high is your sofa? It shouldn't block the window too
much. As a rule, such a piece of furniture in standard size should not be more
than 32 cm high. So if your window is floor-length, blocking shouldn't be a
problem. The upholstery of your couch is also an important aspect, especially
if your window is exposed to direct sunlight. Synthetic and artificial fabrics
are generally more resistant to fading than natural fabrics.

If your couch is made of natural material, you should also
consider the lightfastness of the material. Silk and natural leather fade
easily, while cotton and linen are more lightfast, but easy to soil. On the
other hand, wool, especially when mixed with synthetic fibers, offers good
resistance to both light and pollution.
Is your window secured?

For example, if children in your neighborhood tend to play a
lot near your window, you probably won't want to put your couch there for
security reasons. Pets are also attracted to what is happening outside the
window, especially when it comes to other animals or birds. If you don't want
your sofa to be covered with fur or paw prints in front of a window, you may
want to think again about whether you want to do this.

Where can you place your television ? If you set up your
television directly from the couch, the daylight will bounce off the window and
cause glare and reflections. If your TV screen is not equipped with an
anti-glare screen, it is best to place it on another wall that is not facing
the couch.

Also make sure your windows are sufficiently insulated so
that you and your guests can sit comfortably on the couch in winter. Curtains
and certain types of blackout blinds can provide additional insulation. Also
make sure that your couch is not above the ventilation openings.

As mentioned above, the view from your window provides
natural art for your living room. Therefore, color and style should not only
fit well with the rest of the decor in the room, but also blend in well with
the view outside. If you have a lot of trees outside your window, rough
textured pillows or throws in forest green and brown will give your couch a
woody and rustic look.

Spring flowers growing in front of your window can be
combined with a few colorful pillows. If you have a view of a lake, the
mountains, or the sea, decorate your couch with blue or turquoise cushions that
catch the blue tones outside. You can set up a sofa table behind your couch and
decorate it with a few objects such as vases, frames or plants. Too many
elements can obscure the view outside the window.
