Revamping Your Living Room with a New Sofa
Just moved into a new home? Or perhaps you simply want to refresh your living space in the New Year. Furniture can be an essential aspect of this, particularly if you don’t have a huge amount of time to spend on painting and decorating. Here are a few suggestions for the latest addition to a room that should provide a comfortable space for relaxation and entertainment.
Corner Sofas
Size and scale are essential so you should do your measuring up with care. Corner sofas can be extremely stylish and they come in either right or left hand facing shapes. From sleek leather to beautifully soft fabrics and a variety of colours, you are sure to find one to suit your tastes. What’s more they don’t have to be huge, there are compact sofas on offer for those with a smaller living area. However, they are not designed to fit every room and may block up a doorway or window area. What’s more, you should check that the deliverymen will be able to squeeze them through your house!
Antique Chic
Vintage furniture is not for everybody but if you’re searching for a bespoke piece, there are certainly a large number on the market. Re-upholstered Victorian delights, French salon suites and those made from Edwardian mahogany are just a few examples of the furniture you can discover by searching around online or heading to a local dealer. Of course, you are likely to pay more than you would for the average shop-bought settee if antiques are on your wish list. Additionally, this may not be ideal if you are living in a sleek, modern development.
Two and Three Seaters
Three-seater sofas are great combined with a two-seater for sizeable rooms, particularly if you have a family who want to sit together in the evenings or you enjoy having friends round for a bottle of wine at the weekend. Don’t despair if that three-seater appears enormous in the shop though, try a two-seater and purchase a couple of armchairs to go along with it instead.
No matter what your requirements sofas come in a multitude of shapes, colours and sizes to satisfy a small flat in the heart of the city, a luxurious country villa, or a home where you have kids running around and need something durable and easy to clean! Do your homework, think about the space you are trying to fill and seek advice if needed.
