A 10x12 living room is 120 sq ft (11.1 m²). Choose a sofa of 72–96 inches on the 12 ft wall, a 60-inch coffee table 18 inches in front of it and a 6 × 9 ft rug, and you can seat 4 people. From the sofa the TV is about 8 ft away, so a 55-inch screen is ideal.

What size sofa fits a 10x12 living room?

A sofa of 72–96 inches, about two-thirds of the 12 ft wall. A 96-inch sofa is the sweet spot, and anything longer than 96 inches crowds the wall.

What size TV is best for a 10x12 living room?
