Placement of living room furniture -open concept great room

8 years ago

Hi, Looking for your input on placement of a couch, chair 1/2 and recliner in relation to the rest of
the room we are remodeling. We need to make a general determination of
where it will be to determine where we will put the in floor electrical
outlet (thinking of putting this under the chair and 1/2). Picture below shows view into kitchen from front door and the recliner and chair and 1/2.


Floor plan above shows the sizes of the furniture. The room is 250" wide. The colored circles are can lights and the boxes are outlets.

The sofa is centered under a large front window. The cocktail table is about 19" from the sofa, recliner and chair 1/2. All three seats recline.

Does this spacing make sense? Should the chair 1/2 be centered with the sofa across from it? How much space should I leave between the wall and the back of the recliner? How much space between the chair 1/2 and island? I was thinking that the floor outlet should be under the chair 1/2 - should it be about 8-10 inches in? I am guessing it will be used for power for people sitting in the recliner and chair 1/2. Thank you!
