One of the numerous benefits of using Viesso is that our pieces are extremely customizable. We can build any of our models in whatever sizing and configuration you are looking for, and we strive to find a way to make our designs work for your particular needs. But before you can accurately select the pieces you want us to build, you should take a detailed look at your space. Here is the best way to go about doing that.

The first thing to do is think about exactly where you would like your furniture to be placed, and in what configuration you want to place it. Here are just a few questions to ask yourself:

Placement

- Is the furniture against a wall, or free floating in the middle of your space?

- Where is the TV, fireplace or window view, or is there another focal point in the room?

- Do I want to section off the room, or keep it as open as possible?

Configuration

- Do I want a one armed sofa plus a chaise to create a fixed setup, or a two armed sofa plus an ottoman to increase the flexibility of your configuration?

- Do I want a corner L sectional, or a standard sofa plus some chairs?

- Is this space used primarily for movie watching, talking, listening to music, lounging or other activities?

- Will I be moving soon or should I be specific to my current dwelling?

These questions plus many others that address significant issues in your environment are essential. Depending on your space and the needs that come with it, your placement and configuration can vary greatly.

Size.

Here are three easy steps to determine the appropriate size for your space:

1. Consider how many people you would like to accommodate with your furniture and select appropriate sizes.

2. Next, we suggest determining what the maximum space you have to work with is, given the constraints of your space as well as the existing pieces of furniture. The best way to work through this is to take some blue painters tape (to prevent harming the floor) or masking tape, and place it on the floor in the shape of the basic outline of the piece you are creating.

3. Measure what you laid out, take any notes or details about your arrangement, and proceed to the next avenue of inspiration.
