A rectangle is a good shape for a living room, but when the rectangle becomes very long and narrow, it can make the space difficult to furnish and difficult to use functionally.
Here we look at some example layouts of long and narrow living rooms to see how you can work with this type of room shape to create a stylish and comfortable space that works on a practical level.

Narrow Kitchen and Living Room
This long and narrow room has been utilized as an open-plan kitchen and living room. By splitting the space up into two areas, the result is two better proportioned, almost square rooms rather than one very long room, which would be difficult to furnish and use practically.
A peninsula has been used as part of the kitchen to create a barrier between this space and the living room, which works well to visually separate the two areas and define their uses.

矩形客廳布局
This living room is a classic rectangle shape, making it quite long and narrow. A rectangular-shaped rug has been used in the center of the space that echoes the shape of the room. The sofas and chairs are then positioned around the rug, facing the壁爐和電視.
This layout works well both for socializing and for relaxing and enjoying screen time. The narrow width of the room means that there is not enough space for both an ottoman and coffee table without causing overcrowding, so instead, anottomanhas been used that can double up as a footrest and a coffee table if you placed a tray on it for drinks.

Narrow Living Room with Large Window
This room features a large window, so the sofa has been situated on the opposite wall to allow anyone sitting on it to enjoy the view and the direct natural light. The decision not to use any furniture in front of the window helps to balance out the space because it means there is more open floor area.
If a sofa had been positioned in front of the window, the narrow room would have felt even more narrow because the available floor area would be like a corridor. Sometimes the best way to make a space feel bigger is to not overwhelm it with furniture.

狹窄的一室公寓
This long and narrow room is being used as an entire living space, including a bedroom, a living room, and a dining area. The way the armchairs have been set in an L-shape with their backs to the dining table help to create a feeling of separation between the two areas.
A rug with a coffee table helps to define the center of the room as the living room area. This is a good example of how one seemingly awkward room can be laid out in a way that makes it very practical and multifunctional.
