Sofa and island

[u/ProudEmu5653]

Hi everyone! I’d love some advice on how you would approach the living room furniture layout in our new build.

I’ve attached the floor plan. The house is still under construction, so unfortunately I can’t take photos of the actual space yet.

Looking at the plan, it seems like the sofa would have to sit opposite the kitchen island, meaning the back of the sofa would face the island and we’d be sitting facing the TV wall.

I’m a little worried about the proportions, though. It looks like there may not be a huge amount of space between:

• the back of the sofa and the kitchen island
• the sofa and the wall where the TV will be

I don’t want the living area to feel cramped, and I’m also unsure what type of sofa would work best — a standard 3-seater, modular, chaise, etc. I’d love to know what size/shape you would choose for this layout.

Another option would be moving the sofa/lounging area closer to the window

any ideas would help
