1. Room Size and Proportion
The first step before buying furniture is to measure your space in detail. Record the length, width, and height of the room, then choose furniture that fits those proportions. Furniture that’s too large will make the room feel crowded, while pieces that are too small can make the room feel empty and unbalanced.
Extra tip: Create a simple sketch or use an interior design app to visualize furniture placement.

2. Function and Needs
Choose furniture based on your needs, not just because it’s trendy. For example, a sofa for the living room should not only be comfortable but also match the number of family members. For the bedroom, consider whether you need extra storage under the bed or a wardrobe with larger capacity.

3. Material and Quality
Material determines both durability and aesthetics. Solid woods like teak or mahogany offer strength and a luxurious look, while MDF or plywood can be more budget-friendly with a variety of finishing options. Make sure you know the differences between each material, including how to care for them.
At BMN Living, every material is selected to meet high-quality standards for long-lasting comfort and durability.

4. Color and Interior Style
Furniture colors should complement your home’s interior theme. For smaller spaces, light colors help create a sense of openness. For classic or industrial styles, darker tones and natural wood textures can add warmth and elegance.
While it’s fine to consider trends, prioritize timeless designs so your furniture remains stylish for years to come.

5. Budget and Delivery Time
Set a budget early to narrow your search. Keep in mind that custom furniture usually takes longer to produce than ready-made pieces. Plan your purchase well in advance if you need the furniture by a specific date, such as for a new home or renovation.

Buying furniture requires a balance of aesthetics, function, quality, and budget. With proper planning, you can find pieces that are both beautiful and functional for the long term. BMN Living is ready to help you choose or create custom furniture that fits your needs and your home’s personality — making every corner of your space feel comfortable and inviting.
