Find best furniture to go with the style of your flat

Living room sofas and armchairs should be comfortable and have the right dimensions. When looking for the best ones, it’s worth thinking a little bit about the style. For a Scandinavian style living room, slender armchairs would be ideal (for example, Tego). If you have a living room in Scandinavian style with a fire place, we recommend a wingback chair with or without a footstool, for instance Ducon Malmo or Ducon Velvet. 

Finding sofas and armchairs for your living room can become a real pleasure. When looking for a living room armchair, you can play around with patterns, colours and different types of upholstery fabrics. For a living room in retro style or one that combines various styles, you can go for armchairs with stitching or quilting. Models such as Fox or Ducon Velvet would look great in such a living room. Their vivid and intense colours will become a distinctive feature in a day room with bright walls. A sofa with an armchair upholstered with dark, velvet fabric would look stunning in a living room with darker walls.

Living room sofas are pieces of furniture that should not only look great, but also be comfortable and ensure an enjoyable rest. An armchair placed next to the sofa should allow you to “sink” into it with a cup of tea or coffee and just relax, almost without thinking. Magnus armchair is one of pieces that would fit that description. It looks beautiful, is comfortable and its wide seat allows you to sit and relax well. 

When choosing an armchair to go with the sofa that you already bought, it’s worth looking for models that have the same or similar upholstery fabric colour.

It’s worth keeping in mind that living room sofas and armchairs should have backrests of a similar height. Additionally, the sofa should be a larger piece of furniture.
