- A standard sofa should be between 80 to 95 inches in length and 34 to 37 inches in depth for optimal comfort and appearance. - For coffee tables, aim for dimensions around 30 to 36 inches in width and 16 to 18 inches in height to maintain a balanced and functional space. - When selecting end tables, ensure they are roughly the same height as the arm of your sofa, typically between 24 to 26 inches, to avoid awkward reaching and enhance usability.
