Furnishing your home, room by room
Once the build or renovation is done, the next job is turning empty rooms into a home. These guides walk through the pieces that anchor each space, the sofa, the dining table, the rug underfoot and the lighting throughout, with the sizing, materials and placement tips that make a room feel finished.
Guides in this collection
Sizing a couch to your room, fabric vs leather, and comparing 2-seaters, 3-seaters, modulars and sofa beds.
Sizing and shape, timber vs marble vs glass, and matching dining chairs.
Getting the size right, wool vs synthetic vs jute, and placement in living and dining rooms.
Layering ambient, task and accent light, choosing fittings, and getting warmth and dimming right.
