Choosing a sofa is not only about finding a special model with a color scheme that matches the interior.
There are many more nuances than those who go in search of upholstered furniture think. Here are some tips to help you make the right choice.
Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told what to pay attention to when choosing a sofa.
1. Where will you place the furniture?
If the furniture is not going to be placed near a wall, then you need to take a closer look at models whose back is as beautiful as the rest of the body.
You also need to think about armrests, which you can hit if the furniture is blocking the passage.
If you need to zone the space, it is better to choose a corner model.
2. Two sofas instead of one
Suitable for large rooms where large groups often gather. This option encourages conversation in a cozy atmosphere.
It's also the best way to do this when you need to place furniture in a slightly different position than opposite the TV.
3. Form
It is important that the model fits into the interior not only in color, but also in shape.
This could be elegant furniture on legs or massive furniture that provides comfort.
4. Upholstery
It should match the color palette of the living room, and the material should match the style of the room.
5. Functionality
You need to think right away whether the sofa will be used as a sleeping place, whether it will need storage space, or whether it will simply be a place to watch TV.
