Knowing how to turn furniture in The Sims 4 is incredibly important. Rotating furniture gives you a lot of control over the layouts of your homes in The Sims 4, and prevents all your chairs and tables facing the same direction, which just looks weird. The ability to turn objects and move them freely also helps you get more out of occasionally limited space, and can open up a cluttered room.
