Have you ever had to play tetris with your furniture because your kitchen and living room areas were combined? Or maybe your entire studio is one big room. Sometimes you have to get creative with your furniture placement when working with a combination space and it can be very difficult if you don&rsquo;t have the appropriate pieces. A combination space is when you have one room that performs as two or even three rooms. Makes furnishing pretty hard, huh?
At our store, we provide every size and style of furniture you can imagine to help you out in times like these. All you need is a little strategy when furnishing your room to find a way to make it feel less overcrowded and more open. Follow these tips to get the most space when buying furniture for your, well, space.
&nbsp;
A Multi-Purpose Table
What&rsquo;s one piece of furniture that your kitchen, dining room and living room all have in common? They tend to have a table placed smack dab in the center of them. So, if you are dealing with a combination space, getting a multi-purpose coffee table where the top lifts for more convenient eating would be extremely functional. This would eliminate your dining room table and designate your living room coffee table as your new place to chow down.
You&rsquo;ll also be able to use the multi-purpose coffee table as storage too! Stash away remote controls, blankets, board games, books, and so much more, making your lounging experience that much better.
&nbsp;
The Right Seating
Now that you have a perfect table for your combination space, you&rsquo;ll need some good seating that won&rsquo;t make you feel claustrophobic every time you enter the room. Futons are fantastic pieces of furniture because they are perfect for passing as a couch and also can pull out to be a bed. This is ideal for people who have a combined bedroom and living room, passing as a sofa during the day and conveniently pulling out and turning into a cozy bed at night.

Although, if a futon doesn&rsquo;t appeal to you, there is also the option of getting two comfy chairs and two ottomans. These pieces of furniture are perfect if you don&rsquo;t tend to have too much company over, they are good for relaxing in, and they don&rsquo;t take up much space at all.
If you still aren&rsquo;t sure what kind of seating you need, stop into our store and we&rsquo;ll help you figure out what seating would work best for your home!
&nbsp;
TV on the Wall
In order to give yourself some more space, do what you can to remove as much clutter as possible. For example, if you have a TV in your combo space, purchasing a wall mount for your television will help open up your room a bit. The same goes for framed photos your have sitting on side tables. Remove the photos from the end tables and hang them on the wall &ndash; that way your space will appear more organized even though you barely had to do anything! And with everything removed from your side tables, you&rsquo;ll be able to decide if you really need all these end tables anymore. Keep one or two but remove the rest so your space feels less stuffed.
&nbsp;
Every home has its quirks, whether it&rsquo;s a combination space you need to work with or you happen to be looking for the perfect sectional with very specific dimensions, we have the furniture to fit into any lifestyle. If you are looking for the right table, chair, couch, or something else, we&rsquo;ve got the furniture to help make your home look exactly the way you want it.

Have you ever had guests come over for an evening of fun, only for them to stay so late they had to sleep over for the night? If you don’t happen to have a guest room, this could pose a problem for your company ...

Have you ever had guests come over for an evening of fun, only for them to stay so late they had to sleep over for the night? If you don&rsquo;t happen to have a guest room, this could pose a problem for your company. Worst case scenario, they could uncomfortably sleep on the couch or you could pull out the air mattress collecting dust in the garage and cross your fingers that it still blows up properly.
But, if you plan on having friends over more often to spend the night, you&rsquo;ll most likely want to have a better sleeping situation. That&rsquo;s why having a futon is the perfect, and the most functional sleeping arrangement for anyone planning to snooze at your home.
Not convinced? Here are a couple reasons you&rsquo;ll want these cozy cushions in your house.
&nbsp;
1.&nbsp;They&rsquo;re Functional
If you combine a mattress and a couch together, the result is a futon. That&rsquo;s right! Instead of purchasing a mattress for your guest room &ndash; which may only be utilized a couple times a year &ndash; you could get a completely functional futon that can be used for lounging with friends and family.
Getting a piece of furniture with multiple uses is a great way to maintain your minimalist aesthetic and keep your home uncluttered.

2.&nbsp;They&rsquo;re Comfortable
If you&rsquo;re worried about jumping on the futon bandwagon because you&rsquo;re not sure how comfortable they&rsquo;ll be to sleep on, we&rsquo;d love to have you test them out for yourself! We can confidently say that, although your futon won&rsquo;t provide you with everything a regular mattress may, our futons will still provide proper support and comfort. Let&rsquo;s just say your friends won&rsquo;t be complaining about the crick in their neck the way they used to after sleeping on the floor. Stop by today to pick from our variety of comfy futons!


&nbsp;
&nbsp;3.&nbsp;They&rsquo;re Versatile
One of the best parts about having a futon is that it is completely versatile and looks good in numerous places in your home. Put it in the living room and treat it like a sofa, put it in the office and it&rsquo;s the perfect place for someone to read a book while you play a computer game. And if you have a covered area outside, your futon could even function as luxury outdoor lounge seating.
If you want your guests to have privacy when they stay the night, maybe putting the futon in the office would be best. Maybe you want your futon outside, so you can lay out in the sun whenever you want. It&rsquo;s your futon, and your life, so live it the way that works best for you.
&nbsp;
You may not think you need a futon in your home, but if you&rsquo;ve never tried one of ours, you&rsquo;re missing out! Test out our futons today and you&rsquo;ll understand why getting one is the next step to making your home the perfect sleepover spot for your tired guests.
