Tall pieces of furniture (breakfronts, secretaries) should be placed against (and parallel with) walls.

Seating furniture should be arranged along walls, either parallel or at right angles. Chairs and chaises may also be placed with straight side parallel to the wall, away from heat, and so as the receive light fro the left.

Paper patterns of piano to lay on the floor for experimental purposes are available from most manufacturers. Breakfronts may be placed opposite a door of equal height, between two windows, or facing a sofa.

This, of course should be balanced by a large group at the other end of the room. One group is usually centered around a fireplace.

Whenever possible, unit should be balanced with pieces of similar or equal design. Pairs of chairs, tables, lamps, etc, help in this. The entire room should be “tied together” with something common –style of wood, color, period, some design or motif, or just common feeling.
