When it comes to furnishing your home, whether it’s a one-bedroom apartment or a four-bedroom house, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. With so many rooms and spaces to consider, it’s important to have a plan in place to ensure that your selections will work together seamlessly.
Luckily, the furniture and design experts at Fireside Furniture in New Jersey are here to help! In this article, we’ll go over some key tips and considerations to help you pick out furniture for your home.

Start with a floor plan
Each room in a four bedroom house will have a different function, so it’s important to consider this when selecting furniture. For example, the master bedroom should have a comfortable bed and a place to sit and read, while a guest room may only need a bed and a nightstand. Likewise, a living room will need a comfortable seating area, while a dining room will require a table and chairs.
Establish a style
When it comes to selecting furniture, it’s important to establish a style that will tie all the rooms together. Whether you prefer a modern, contemporary look or a more traditional style, having a clear sense of what you like will make it easier to select pieces that will work well together.

Think about scale and proportion
When selecting furniture for a four bedroom house, it’s important to consider the scale and proportion of each piece. This is also important when you have a smaller home, too.
It means that you should select pieces that are in proportion to the size of the room and the other furniture in the space. For example, if you have a large living room, a large sofa would be appropriate, while a smaller room may be better suited for a loveseat.
Don’t forget about storage
We tend to acquire a lot of stuff these days, and whether you have four bedrooms or one, storage is an essential consideration. You’ll want to select furniture that has built-in storage, such as a bed with drawers or a dresser, and consider adding additional storage pieces such as a bookshelf or a console table.
Add accessories
Once you have your furniture in place, it’s time to add accessories to complete the look. This includes things like pillows, rugs, art, and lighting. These elements will help to tie the room together and make it feel complete. Luckily, Fireside Furniture has a ton of great accessories to add that flourish to your home–in addition to all of our great furniture!
