Furniture Home Decorating

Retirement center lobby

Any ideas on how one might set up furniture arrangements? We would like to have a couple tables for two people, possibly a couch and chairs around fireplace. The room is 23' x 20'

I would love at least one or more circles of armchairs with a coffee table in the center. Nice for conversation, everyone has their own chair so singles don't have to cozy up to others on a sofa or loveseat. Table could be adjustable height for games or an ottoman for comfort.

Glad you do. I think those arrangements are so friendly and welcoming looking. Depending on the final arrangement, if you have swivel chairs, people can turn to interact with others not seated in their circle.
