Sofa layout ideas for TV and gaming
Looking for sofa layout ideas to make watching your top shows or playing your favourite games easier and more fun? You’ll find lots of ideas here on different types of sofa and how to arrange them to maximise your enjoyment. Plus tips about how furniture like coffee tables, TV benches and armchairs can help you make sure your space works for TV, gaming and more.

Let’s be together but do different things
You want to watch TV. Your kids or your flatmates want to game. Or maybe the other way around. Welcome to a layout that satisfies everyone. The generous, comfy KIVIK corner sofa is perfect for watching your favourite shows beamed onto the blind from the projector on the JÄTTESTA coffee table.
The gamers have LILLESÄTER swivel easy chairs. They can watch the big screen with the sofa crowd or swivel around, put their headphones on and their feet up, and game at their own TV.
You get plenty of space for remote controls, gaming consoles and magazines etc from the BESTÅ TV bench and the tables. And it’s easy to move the STOCKHOLM 2025 side table around to make sure everyone gets their fair share of the snacks!
A layout that changes shape and saves you space
This compact layout is super easy to adapt to different situations, like friends popping over. The key is flexible furniture including this FRIHETEN 3-seat sofa-bed that works day and night shifts. A BRÄNNBOLL gaming lounge chair gives you two relaxing options – the seat cushion folds out so you can stretch your legs. It’s on castors, so you can have it facing the TV when you’re watching or gaming or facing the sofa for board games with friends. The TINGBY side table is on castors, too. And your TV and electronic gizmos are taken care of by a VIHALS TV bench.
A cosy sofa layout for a young family
A soft VIMLE 3-seat sofa with chaise lounge opposite the TV is great for snuggling up and watching together. The covers are machine-washable and the chaise longue you’ll love to stretch out on even has storage space for things like throws.
A KALLAX TV bench holds your electronic stuff and the four bamboo BULLIG boxes keep your other things organised. Toys can be tucked away inside this SLÄKT storage box with castors. And taking them out and tidying them up goes faster when your kids have a TROFAST box to help.
Snacks and more are taken care of by an OLSERÖD side table. You can easily change it from a coffee table to a higher table that’s perfect for things like TV dinners.
A multigenerational layout with a surprise at the centre
Here’s a sofa layout idea that gives up to seven people a view of the TV and much more – great for a multigenerational family, for example. Two EKTORP 3-seaters give you space and comfort, while Grandma sits in her favourite EKTORP armchair, her knitting handy beside her on a KRAGSTA table.
The two VITTERYD adjustable coffee tables include a nice surprise. As well as getting storage for remote controls, magazines and game consoles, you can also raise the tops to play board games or have a TV dinner.
The open shelves of a SKRUVBY TV bench give you easy access to the things you keep there. And you can organise smaller stuff clutter-free with boxes and baskets.
