Decoratinga a Room with a White Sofa

White sofas are lovely pieces of furniture which can add an elegant and stylish look to any room. The white colour will also make the area look cleaner. Of course, you don't want your living room to look like hospital, so you will need pieces of furniture in other shades to add more life to the area. The main problem of white surfaces is that they tend to get dirty really easy. And this it true not only when it comes to furniture, but for every item painted in white. That's why some people do not fancy the idea of buying white t-shirts or white sneakers. Moreover, sofas are not that easy to clean, so you have to keep them in good condition and spend time on a regular basis for maintenance. The point of this article is to show you how to properly decorate your room around the white sofa. So, just keep on reading and in a few minutes you will know what accessories and decoration are appropriate.

First, you will have to choose a nice colour to contrast with the white sofa. Decorating specialists recommend to choose one of the following shades:

-emerald

-lavender

-cerulean

I know several home owners, who chose exactly these colours and I have to admit that I was very pleased when I saw their rooms at the end when everything was set. So, you will not make a mistake, if you go for these colours.

If there are no accesories yet on the sofa, this is the perfect time to add some pillows. 4-5 pillows is usually a good number, but of course, it depends on the size of the furniture. Here it is up to you to choose the colour. But still I will suggest you not to buy all your pillows in the shame shade. Choosing different shades of the colour is a good way to contrast and at the same time to complement the piece of furniture .

Once you have added the pillows to your sofa, place a rug to complement the furniture. Again choose whichever colour you like. You can take a sample of the sofa and bring it to the rug store to check out how both will look like and then take the final decision.

Now, let's not leave the rug like this and place a table, for example, on it. A glass coffee table will be a good choice. If you are a fan of wood furniture, it will be better not to use wood tables or brown coloured tables, because they will not match the white sofa.

Next, you can consider placing a few accessories on the coffee table. A book or several magazines are a pretty good option. A vase with flowers will also look well.

Follow the mentioned tips and you will provide better atmosphere and cozy feeling to your place. Don't forget to spend time on a regular basis for the proper maintenance of the surfaces in your home. For example, for tough stains on your carpets or just for routine cleaning refer to carpet cleaning professionals at Covent Garden. They will get you rid of the dirt and dust on carpets, curtains and mattresses.
