"Arranging a space with Bordeaux living room furniture"

Bordeaux living room furniture can transform even the most basic of living spaces with its old world charm and French grandeur. The living room is a focal point for most houses, bringing people together for social celebrations, board games, movie nights and even just relaxing in front of a fire with a glass of wine and a good book. 


The arrangement of Bordeaux living room furniture will depend upon the architectural layout of the space. If for example you have a fireplace, your furniture will ideally be positioned with a focus on this feature. Remember to leave enough space between coffee tables and couches; oak furniture is durable, but it’s best to avoid spills at all costs. If entertaining with large numbers, allow all guests a reachable drink. One-drawer console and Boudreaux lamp tables make great alternative surface for drink and food, and also complement a rustic, timeless Bordeaux coffee table centrepiece. 

Those that like structure and consistency often prefer a symmetry arrangement, with two sofas positioned facing each other and the fireplace or room feature positioned at the end. This arrangement encourages conversation and creates a relaxed atmosphere conducive to entertaining. 


When deciding which Bordeaux furniture pieces will work best together, consider scale: the size of pieces relative to each other and the size of the space. Similarly sized oak pieces create a more orderly appearance, however taking advantage of the height, depth and width of a variety of Bordeaux oak living room furniture will add a liv ed-in, homely feel to oak book cases, coffee tables and lamp stands.


However you choose to use your living space, Bordeaux oak furniture adds period charm and warmth to both traditional and contemporary spaces, and is likely to outlast the carpet it rests on, making it a quality, timeless investment you’ll thank yourself for in years to come.
