With so many types and styles of sofas to choose from, what make someone choose one over another?6/9/2019 In the end it doesn’t really matter why someone else chooses one sofa over another. It only matters why you choose that particular sofa over another. Every household, place, business, etc that has sofas has a different checklist to which the sofa must fulfill. (or as close to it as possible) So before going out to shop for the new suite, make a list for yourself. They may only be guidelines, but are always handy to be able to refer back to as the whole process can be a little overwhelming. So here are a few guidelines to help in the process.
2. Material Who and what is going to be using the sofa? Choosing the right material is as important as choosing the correct size. Consider who will be using the sofa. While a crisp white fabric sofa may sound like a fantastic option it may not be the ideal choice when you have kids, pets, dirty boots, etc running around in the living room. For the same reasons choosing leather or easy clean fabrics etc might be a better option. Every sofa has several options available, yes sometimes certain options will take longer to be delivered however it can be worth it to wait a few extra weeks and get exactly the sofa you had in mind. 3. Floor space While this may not be the most essential it is something to keep in mind, especially when dealing with limited floor space and/or small spaces. To make the room feel bigger choosing furniture, thus sofa’s, on higher legs allows more floor space to be visible, thus creating the illusion the space is bigger. It helps make the pieces themselves look ‘lighter’ and less ‘chunky’ creating a much more relaxed space. 4. Colour One of the most prominent elements of the sofa. Choosing the right colour can balance a room. Whether you prefer a patterned, light, dark or funky colours sofa is totally up to you, but don’t be afraid to be a little bold! There are some amazing pieces out at the moment in bright, rich velvet. You can choose to just have a sofa, or choose to add a comfortable statement piece! It is up to you! Take all points into consideration and have fun shopping for the perfect piece! All images from Pinterest.com
