It shows the owner has taste, class, and is no small fry at home decor. Well, the purpose of this article is to aid you in achieving the same.
Let’s start by revamping your living room. After all it’s here where conversation starters occur, and evolve further. To encourage that, you must have a great sofa for your guests to settle in. Great sofas make a great living room!
Sofas are the focal point of attraction in the living room. Their proper arrangement is vital to get the decor pieces right else they will be just functional furniture pieces, lending a void soul irrespective of where placed in the room.
A bit of research will help you in making an informed decision about your design, style, upholstery and finally placement. We have shortlisted a few arrangements which we hope will help you in placement of your sofa.
Face to Face arrangement
If you have two love seats, or a single love seat and a sofa, you can put them facing each other, making the setting perfect for indulgent tea conversations.
Feature Sofa
For this placement to be perfect; first get the sofa to match your personality 100%. Then look at particular place in the room where you would like to place it. For e.g. I find chesterfield sofa set a bit similar to my liking, and I would love place them below my bookshelf. Do keep in mind that the entire room’s decor would revolve around this placement.
Family Sofa
This one is for people like me, since it gives the entire family to come and sit together to watch a movie, or a sitcom etc. They are many variants dedicated to the same, generally placed opposite to the television the arrangement sometimes finds itself in the same position for many years.
Fall and sleep sofa
Sofa-cum-beds come in this category, and are ideal when kid’s friends come over to sleep. They are multifunctional being a comforting seating arrangement in the day, while a comfortable bed at night.
The ‘’Diva’’ Sofa
Totally customized to the ongoing fashion trend. This would be an instant attraction to whosoever comes to your house. If you have a small house you can place it near your wall mirror, and your house will look anything but small.
A final word, irrespective of your choice you have find the zone of comfort on placement. I am stressing on this because if it is not comfortable, it bears no essence of being there. You would rather be without it!
