Think about lighting.
Lighting is a key factor in the overall mood of your room. Windows let in ample natural light, while chandeliers, sconces and lamps keep the room bright at night. Install in-floor electrical outlets to service floating furniture arrangements.
Get your TV right.
The No. 1 tip when learning how to arrange living room furniture with a TV? Place the television so the screen faces away from the sunlight. The viewing distance for a standard TV is 8 to 12 feet, and the best viewing angle is not more than 30 degrees. For traffic flow, create paths that flow behind viewers and not between them and the screen.
