The beautiful and comfortable new home has finally been decorated, and the furniture is also very particular, and the knowledge here is quite simple. Let’s learn about the taboos of furniture placement.

[1] Taboo 1: Avoid violent sunshine. Fierce sunshine will fade the surface of the sofa and directly affect the durability of the sofa. Therefore, no matter which material is made of the sofa, it cannot be placed next to the window for a long time, especially if the room faces west, it should be avoided.

[2] Taboo 2: The position of audio and video equipment should be away from the windows

The position of audio and video equipment should also be away from the windows. There are two reasons: First, when the fluorescent screen of the TV is illuminated by light, it will produce a reflective effect, which makes people feel uncomfortable when enjoying TV programs. Secondly, when approaching the window, it will be contaminated with dust. When it rains, rainwater may splash on the equipment, affecting its operation, and even leakage occurs.

[3] Taboo 3: The installation height of chandeliers should not be too high or too low

Most lighting on the market are mainly chandeliers and must be used properly. If the house is too low, you must pay attention to the height of the chandeliers. Too low will hinder your movement. The chandelier is installed in the middle position and the light will be more even. As for the height of the chandelier, the ideal distance is about 50-60 cm from the tabletop. If it is too high, it may make people shine. If it is too low, it will hit the head.

[4] Taboo 4: The desk of the writing desk should be lower than the elbow

The desk of the writing desk should be lower than the elbow to facilitate movement. The distance between the top of the wall cabinet and the ground should not exceed 2 meters. If the art cabinet has two floors, it is best to see the objects placed inside with a straight view as the ideal height on the first floor, and it is best to lift the things with your hands up to get things.

[5] Taboo 5: The bed should not be facing the mirror

The bed should not be facing the mirror, because the mirror reflects other things. When people are in a blurred state, they may be frightened.

[6] Taboo 6: The bed should not be located under the beam

The bed should not be located under the beam, because lying under the beam, the subconscious will feel oppressed.
