Size

The size of your room is a starting point. If you are looking for something small, then a swivel chair, sofa chair, 2-seater is a good option.

Fabric

While the size and style of the sofa are more about the size of your room and practical functionality, the fabric will enhance the mood and ambiance. The first choice is whether to go for leather or fabric. Fabric tends to be warmer in touch, and comes in plain or pattern, whereas leather tends to create cleaner lines and a sophisticated look.

Having kids or pets also factors into the decision, and some fabrics are easier to clean than others. Think about how durable and practical your settee must be. On the off chance that luxury is the look you are looking for, nothing ticks the box quite like a velvet sofa. Delicate, opulent and advanced, a velvet finish will add a pinch of class to your home. 

Design

There are lots of styles to pick from, both modern and traditional, and as this is an important investment piece, take time to choose one that fits your personality. However, with plump cushions will compel you to sink into them at the end of the day.

Color

You probably have a good idea of what color couch you want to go for. However, there are a few things to consider. Darker colors such as navy and black are helpful if you have kids or pets, as lighter colors will show any marks or stains easily. Neutral colors like cream, gray and subtle blush tones are easy to accessories and suit most home decors. Choose a bold pattern or bright color such as mustard yellow that is sure to be the perfect statement furniture piece in your home. 

Living room furniture

Once this choice is made, it’s time to choose complementary living room furniture. If you find you always end up hosting for movie nights with your family and friends invest in an armchair or two for extra seating – perfect for when you are entertaining. A storage ottoman is an extraordinary method for hiding that much-needed storage with a stylish item and will work with those armchairs as well. Keep all your travel books and fashion magazines in order with a roomy bookcase.

When you’re setting up your house for the first time, invest in some multi-functional furniture too. If you’re living an open plan, consider using a console table to break up space, or if space is what you’re looking for, add a pair of small side tables. Whichever you choose, add a table lamp which will give your room a soft light and cozy ambiance. Add some color and texture to your room with a sofa throw and some gray cushions. Not enough space for an extra settee? Try using two or three comfortable bean bags and sink down to relax at the end of a long, hard day.
