How to Buy a Sofa Online:

A sofa is the largest piece of furniture in a living or family room, so should be chosen with care. Consider these factors:
  • Functional: Make a seating plan for the entire room, to determine how many people the couch will need to seat. If you like to stretch out, make sure the ends can be used to support your head and shoulders. Choose a seat depth and back height of a sofa that match your physique- it’s generally better to get a slightly deeper seat that can be bolstered with decorative pillows if necessary.
  • Style: Traditional sofas often have rounded arms, skirts, and tufted backs. Contemporary sofas usually have external frames that suspend the sofa above the floor. Transitional couches often blend traditional rounded shapes with a cleaner, crisper look.

Color Lovers Go Neutral

Here's a bit of design advice for all you color lovers out there. If you have a thing for color (the brighter the better, you say?) then choose your bigger upholstered pieces (sofas, lounge chairs, settees and living room chairs) in neutrals of beige, taupe, ivory, white, gray and black. Pairing big neutral pieces with favorite or trending colors has become a popular practice as we look to design in more budget conscience ways.

With a neutral canvas in place, you can go wild with a colorful palette you love for accessories, art, accent pieces and walls. If you like things to be fresh and exciting, a neutral base allows you to change things up according to seasonal trends or on a whim. You’ll never get bored with your décor again.

Design Tip: Nothing is bland about neutral tones when you know how to use them to their best advantage. If you tend to like cooler colors such as blue, green and violet then go with a white that has a cool bluish undertone. If you like warmer colors like red, orange and yellow then choose a white with a warmer yellow undertone.
