What is a facing left/facing right configuration on an L-Shape sofa?

Have you ever been in a situation where you are trying to decide the best way to arrange a new L-Shape sofa in your living room? One important factor to consider is the facing left/facing right configuration. In this article, we will explore the implications of this configuration and why it's important to consider when setting up your sofa.

Facing left and facing right configurations refer to how the two ends of the L-shaped sofa are arranged. To put it simply, the key point is the chaise part. When you are standing and facing the sofa, if the chaise is on your left eye, that’s a Facing Left sofa. If the chaise is on your right eye, that’s a Facing Right sofa.

What are some tips for choosing the right-facing left/facing right configuration on an L-Shape sofa?

1. Determine the primary use of the sofa. The configuration will depend on whether the sofa is mainly used for lounging, socializing, or watching TV. 
2. Consider the size and shape of the room. Facing left/right may be more appropriate depending on the layout of the room.
3. Take into account the traffic flow in the room. Choose a configuration that will allow for a smooth flow of movement within the space.
4. Consider the seating arrangement and the size of your sofa. Facing left/right may be more comfortable for larger sofas, while facing each other may be better for smaller sofas and intimate conversations.

After considering the factors of space, and personal preference, it is clear that selecting the right-facing or left-facing configuration for an L-shaped sofa is a personal decision. Ultimately, it is up to the individual to determine which configuration works best for them and their space.
