Essential living room furniture typically includes a sofa or sectional, coffee table, end tables or side tables, and a TV stand or media console. Additional pieces might include armchairs, ottomans, and storage units.

Accent chairs are primarily used to enhance the décor of a space by providing a focal point or contrast to the surrounding furniture and walls. Armchairs prioritize comfort and functionality over purely decorative elements, though they can still be stylish and come in various designs to suit different interiors.

Coffee tables come in various shapes (rectangular, square, round) and materials (wood, glass, metal). Choose one that complements your overall décor style and provides enough surface area for drinks, snacks, and decorative items. Consider the height relative to your seating for convenience.
