Furniture is also a part of the interior and the main component of a comfortable and cozy atmosphere in the house, especially upholstered furniture.

Therefore, you cannot take the choice of a sofa lightly and make a decision without weighing all the pros and cons.

Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told how to avoid mistakes when choosing a sofa for the living room.

The main thing is the size

The first thing to pay attention to is the dimensions of the upholstered furniture. In a large room, a small sofa can get lost, and in a small room, bulky furniture will look ridiculous.

It also happens that furniture cannot be brought into an apartment or room due to narrow doorways and non-collapsible design.

Don't forget about style

Mixing styles speaks of bad taste. Therefore, a model made in the loft style will be inappropriate in a classic interior.

At the same time, it is important to remember that museum furniture will look funny in a typical apartment, and a classic model will simply be inconvenient in everyday life.

Of course, the color of the upholstery should be in harmony with the rest of the furnishings.

Finally – the price

You can't skimp on quality by choosing the cheapest model. In this case, there is a risk that the upholstery will wear out faster, there will be problems with the filler, mechanisms, etc.

And if there are pets in the house, it is better to immediately look for a model whose upholstery is made of vandal-proof material.
