Here is a clear visual explanation of how you can lay out the furniture in your living room to optimise the space and its use. There is nothing superstitious about it, and is entirely sensible, in fact, most good interior designers would subconsciously employ the same same theories because they make so much sense!
Please comment on what else you'd like to see, most of my videos are on Tiktok, but here is where I do not need to rush! :)

Thank you for your videos. They are so eye opening. I never comment on youtube, but I have seen most of your videos in the last days! :) Completely inspired I now try to Feng Shui all the rooms in our home. The living room is still our biggest issue. Feel like doing a video about a large living room? :-) We have a living room of 10x5 metres, windows on the short side, a door on the other short side, a door in the corner on the long side. How to set up te room? It is a large space and we have no idea how to plan it well. We are always sitting in a place in the middle of a pathway. We want a childrens play space, a bookshelf and a television corner. So much fun watching! Thank you!

I really wish I had a 3d printer or Amazon sold these furniture feng shui pieces cuz it's helpful. Ig doll furniture would work too. If you sell these custom that'd be awesome! Not everyone has the same furniture pieces.

My issue is that if I put my sofa in the command position the view out my window is crowded by neighboring buildings vs if it is in line with the door the view is of tree tops and skyscrapers in the distance. So which is better; fishbowl view command position or high energy alignment with front door and beautiful city views?

Lol. I think most Western houses, units and apartments are Feng Shui nightmares. I hope you'll get Cliff's book and keep up watching his videos. Feng Shui is more about energy so you can overcome a lot. Also, if you own the house, you can gradually make improvements. Good luck.

He has to calibrate the 3D printer though. It seems he has a terrible case of under-extrusion which results in the gaps in the top layers. It's probably a combination of high print speed, low temperature and low resolution nozzle. Fix it!

Hi Cliff (?) Thanks for all your videos, i appreciate it ! I was wondering how would you manage a dining and living room almost like your exemple, but with 2 more doors? One double on the north wall, one aside right of the large window to go on the terrace, and one double on the south wall (just facing the north one) ? It s hard to put the dining room and the sofa without being in the circulate area and the optimise the space...

@catmoonkenobi

Little curious why a TV shouldn't be a focal point tbh. If it's the main function of your living room, as you don't socialize, shouldn't be catered to? Similar to how I want main walkways/thoroughfares unobstructed do I not want the equipment I'm using most frequently to be most accessible? You're removing functionality in a sense by not having a frequently used television be a focal point. Feel like that's an individuals pre-conceived notions and bias's on technology coming into play. I still take away a lot from these videos, but I'll work in what works for me too.
@Brynnthebookworm
@Brynnthebookworm Год назад
Agreed, my couch is still in a command position where I can look out my picture window or watch tv, but both the window and the tv can be the focus of the room. It's not really set up for socializing as I don't generally enjoy having very many people in my space. It still works well for me and feels comfortable.

I love your vids!! The tiny furniture really makes my head and heart happy. I have a very weird disjointed apartment layout I hope one similar crosses your path. My front door is diagonal, enters into a mostly closed off kitchen, a wall separates the kitchen and the living room. The dining room is off to the right it’s a puzzle 🧩 Weird apartment. 1011 square but not well laid out like the newer modern ones

My sofa is adjacent to the door with our largest window directly behind it haha ugh On one wall, we have door and window. The wall to one side is where the woodstove's alcove is, so we can't have the sofa over there. The alcove is an inset space with an arch, to highlight the woodstove, but this means we can't place a television above the fireplace. On the only solid wall, the wall is in line with the door like the wall shown here, and it's shorter than our sofa. Opposite the main window and front door, the room is open on 2/3rds to our dining area. The other 3rd is a closet with mirrors. the mirrored closet aligns with the front door. Personally I'm considering swapping the dining area with the living area so we can have fireside dinners and place our sofa along one of the two solid walls in our current dining space. Oh, and covering the mirrors on the closet. Highly dislike seeing a silhouette in the doorway when I walk in if it's night time haha

My living room is impossible to meet these requirements. Huge window. Huge 70s Lava rock fireplace and a large opening for the entrance (no door). It's also the TV room so there's only one way to arrange it for TV viewing. I should try to make a scale model to play with, but I don't see any other way that's realistic to our lifestyle. I mostly watch for entertainment value. My entrance and my bedroom are also Feng Shui nightmares. Thanks 70s house!

What do you do if your couch is aligned with the front door. It's the only place i can put the couch. It looks similar to this drawing, only the longest wall has fireplace and two large windows on either side taking up the whole wall.
@sarahlund-nt3kw

I agree with not having the window behind the sofa, as it would feel like you were blocking the natural light, and then you couldn't really look out of the window, if it's behind you when you're sat down.

I feel like our living room is impossible. We have a fireplace in the SW corner. The south wall has a big window and french doors to the backyard. NW corner is a door to the bedroom. The north wall is the kitchen with a cutout, then a dining room. The NE corner is the front door, with a weird support beam a few feet away from each wall. 😭 It all feels impossible to properly decorate
