Choosing the sofa for the living room is a very important step when deciding to furnish a new home or to simply refresh the environment. There are many sofa models on the market, perfect to meet your needs based on criteria such as sizes, fabrics, colors and all the amenities provided by this piece of furniture, always indispensable in every home. Now let’s see in detail how to choose the sofa for your living room.
How to choose the sofa for the living room? Based on your goal
The sofa market offers a wide range of proposals. What you need to understand, even before assessing color, shape, size or price, is what do you want to get from that sofa?
You need :
- A sofa bed?
- A comfortable sofa (two or three seats)?
- A fashion sofa (for furnishing)?
- A cheap sofa, for example: for the second home by the sea in the mountains or for the tavern?
How to choose the sofa for the living room? According to the measures
Before going to the store, where you will complete your purchase, or ordering the product online, take note of all the measurements (width, height, depth) of the room where it will be placed, so as not to reserve you unpleasant surprises.
If your living room is small, you could opt, for example, for an elegant and sophisticated two-seater sofa.
- Not being able to welcome many guests, he tries to focus on the aesthetic aspect, investing in the quality of the fabrics and finishes.
- Concentrate also on the comfort and resistance of the seat and back, ensuring you have soft interiors in goose down.
If your living room has large dimensions, instead, you can range in the choice of the sofa, buying the one you prefer (usually the classic three-seater sofa).
- A large sofa ensures greater comfort, for example, thanks to the large seat, where you can lie down, as well as sit.
- These models rarely lack armrests, which are also excellent for lying down, resting your head comfortably.
- By choosing a large sofa, it is possible to obtain additional accessories such as the open/close footrest or corner puffs, which give the room that extra touch of modernity.
How to choose the sofa for the living room? Based on the fabric
Even the selection of the fabric is a cornerstone of the choice of your living room sofa.
- Leather is one of the favorite materials for those who want to create a sophisticated and elegant atmosphere. The choice can be uncomfortable, especially in summer, when you sit or lie down with bare legs, gluing to the leather.
- Silk, often very expensive, is a material that unfortunately tends to ruin quickly.
- The micro fiber is currently the ideal material, as it lasts over time, is washable and aesthetically pleasing, even if not like the first fabrics mentioned.
In any case, if you can’t find the ideal sofa for your living room based on the fabric, you can always buy fabrics or coverings of the material you prefer, to cover the furnishing complement at a later time.
How to choose the sofa for the living room? Based on color
When choosing to furnish a home, it is a good idea to adapt every accessory and accessory purchased based on criteria such as style, size, and colors. So choosing the color of the sofa for the living room can be very important.
It is usually good to opt for pastel and soft colors such as gray, white, beige, Prussian blue, lilac or ocher yellow. It is difficult to select sofas with bright colors, such as bottle green, red, orange or black.
In addition to being difficult to combine, these colors fail to give the room a restful and comfortable climate, typical of an area where relaxation is the most important factor.
If you don’t know, which is the color of a sofa that best suits your needs, try to compare it to those already present in your living room and to understand if it is the case to ” break ” in gradation or to continue giving life to a monochromatic style, sometimes aseptic, but relaxing.
