These sofas will ruin absolutely any interior: a complete list of anti-trends

To paraphrase a well-known expression, we can safely say that not all sofas are equally useful. For your interior, of course.

Expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, spoke about sofas that definitely have no place in your living room.

First of all, you should avoid truly gigantic sofas, which are completely devoid of ergonomics and logic.

The specialist reminds: in order to lie down, you should use a bed, while the main function of a sofa is to sit on it.

Another anti-trend is a sofa-bench or sofa-book, on which shapeless fabric with a dubious print is often hung.

If you see furniture in a store that is stylized as real objects or animals, don’t even think about buying it – a sofa in the shape of lips, a cactus, or other “perversions” is never destined to become the highlight of the interior.

In addition, you should abandon the idea of placing a sofa from the 90s in the living room, the features of which include terrible geometry and massive armrests, which are covered with leatherette or wood inserts.

Finally, put aside any thoughts of getting a sofa upholstered in cheap fabric or its opposite, a rich-looking sofa.
