Planning on re-decorating your space this year? When blessed with a deep rectangular living area, sometimes we wonder how to fill up that space behind the sofa. Especially, when the TV screen is on the opposite wall.
Remember, there's a maximum distance that needs to be considered to properly view the TV depending on the size of your LCD/LED screen. For instance, the sofa should not be more than 11 feet / 3.35 meters away from a 32" screen. If you have 42'' TV, maximum distance should be less than 15 feet / 4.57 meters.
Placing a work desk is an ideal way to utilize that empty nook behind your sofa. This arrangement allows openness and direct view of the TV as well. I have always hated working on a desk facing a wall. The best scenario of course for a private work desk requiring quiet contemplation is to face a window with a great view or positioned right at the center of the room surrounded by inspiring pieces to spark creativity. However, for those who would like to check their emails quickly while not wanting to miss their favorite program, this layout works best.
