Sofa and Loveseat Set
Your sofa and loveseat set is pretty important. It is, after all, where your guests will naturally gravitate when you’re hosting a party or gathering – and it’s where you will naturally crash after a long day. It is, in fact, the crux of the living room. Choosing a sofa and loveseat set, then, is not a task to take lightly!
Buying the Right Set for Your Home
Before buying a sofa and loveseat set, ask yourself these questions:
- What’s the seating like throughout the rest of the house? As the adage says, a home’s style and colors should ‘flow’ from room to room. Cohesion of these elements (at least a little bit) will help to ‘pull everything together’ – making a home feel like a home (and not two or three different homes)!
- Will I need any additional seating? If you want to add in an accent chair, don’t be afraid to choose one that ‘mixes’ with the set you are buying (as opposed to ‘matching’ with it). An accent chair, after all, is designed to accentuate, and not necessarily to blend in. To help make sure any additional seating, accent chair or otherwise, you choose to include in your living room will mix well with your sofa and loveseat set, opt for at least one matching element. (So, with brown fabric furniture, consider incorporating a brown leather accent chair – and if not, then a leather accent chair in a different color of your choice!) This will help to ensure a ‘link’ uniting your main set from your accessories – while still allowing your accessories to stand out on their own.
