If you are considering updating the sofa in your living area, there are a few things to keep in mind.
First, the sofa is the main piece of furniture every living room needs. Not only is a sofa a decorative piece, it must be functional. Sofas should be comfortable and large enough to accommodate your needs, but not so large that it overwhelms the room.
The second thing to consider when updating your sofa is the color or pattern. Choosing a sofa that is too light in color may not last through the normal wear and tear of family use. Also a sofa that is too bright may clash with other colors in the home. Neutral is always a safe option because it leaves room for adjustment, changing color schemes and decor is easier when the sofa can blend well. However, don’t fear patterns or color, just be sure that it’s something you can live with and work with.
The last thing to consider is the type of material on the sofa. Deciding if you want vinyl, leather, micro fiber, suede, etc. is an important decision. This decision is even more important if you are recovering your current sofa instead of replacing it completely.
