Can I see a floor lamp next to my sofa before buying?

Yes. Take a photo of your living room from across the room, facing the sofa and the end where the lamp will stand. Find the main product image of the floor lamp from the retailer. Upload both to DecorViz to see the lamp placed beside your sofa before you order.

Floor lamps are difficult to judge from product pages because their height only reads correctly in relation to the sofa they stand next to. A lamp that looks proportionate in a retail display arranged for photography can look too tall or too short beside your specific sofa, depending on sofa arm height, ceiling height, and what else is in that corner of the room.

The lamp base style and finish also matter in context. A slim brass base that reads as elegant in a styled showroom can get visually lost beside a large L-shaped sofa in a wide living room. A more substantial base that reads as heavy in a product shot can anchor the corner of a large room exactly right. These are judgments that only resolve in your actual space.

If you are deciding between a floor lamp and a table lamp, preview both options in your room photo to see which reads better in the specific corner you have in mind. Try it free on your own photo.
