Living room, one-point
Sofa, coffee table, bookcase and a door seen straight on at 28 mm, camera 1.5 m: the classic one-point room.

What to look at
Every receding edge of the furniture goes to the one vanishing point on the horizon.
The sofa top (0.8 m) is below eye level, so its seat is visible; the bookcase top (1.8 m) is above it, so it is not.
The door at 2.1 m is a taller-than-eye-level object: its top edge slopes down toward the vanishing point.
