Modern Sofas

Upholstered sofas for the living room

The living room is a special place at home, where we spend most of our quality time with our loved ones. A comfortable sofa guarantees relaxation when we want to unwind after a long day and therefore the choice of lounge furniture is the most important decision to make, when determining the layout of your living room. It is on the sofa that we spend time with our friends and family, watching our favourite films and TV. The perfect place for entertaining, the living room needs to have lounge furniture that is roomy enough for all to sit on and socialise comfortably.

Designed to reflect the latest trends, modern sofas not only allow deep relaxation, but also give the interior its style and character. In response to our customer needs, the upholstered sofas available in our SLF24 store are available in an extensive range of designs, fabrics, and colours. There are also many sizes to choose from, so you can be sure you will find the exact match for your space and relaxation needs. You may need a two-seater sofa for a small apartment, or a large corner sofa for a spacious open plan living area. Whatever the size of your home and interior, you can be sure there is a model waiting to be made especially for you, by our skilled team of craftsmen. 

Modern sofa design

Modern sofas for the living room are often distinguished by their simple shape, which blends well with most styles, but especially to lovers of minimalism in interiors. To contrast this, a simple design of sofa lends itself to be adorned with cushions and throws, creating a cosier environment with complementary colour accents, and creating extra visual interest in your room. Our designers love adding clever details to the models, such as quilting on the upholstery, button detailing and solid turned wood legs.

All the sofa frames are constructed from solid wood to ensure the whole structure is strong and robust. The fillings are made from materials, such as highly flexible foam and silicone fibre, which keeps the sofa in shape. The upholstery also contributes to the comfort. Each fabric has been selected for its hard-wearing rub resistant properties, as well as the quality of its touch. For example, our popular, timeless Velluto velvet is beautifully soft, has stunning light reflective properties and looks elegant and glamourous on any sofa model. What’s more it is available in 13 stunning colours. For even greater sophistication, some of our sofas are available with slender metal legs - great for creating a luxe interior.

The best sofas and couches are those which combine functionality with subtle design. The shape of the backrest, cushions and armrests has a great impact on whether a sofa is comfortable. It is also important to determine whether the sofa fits well with the style of the room. Fans of Scandinavian design in particular, will appreciate sofas in neutral colours made of fabrics with a linen style weave. Whereas, if you are looking for a more dramatic tone, then a couch made in a deep navy blue or bottle green will add elegance to the living room. 

We know how important colour choice is in our home and how it can have a soothing effect on our mood, especially if we are choosing calm colours such as a serene oatmeal or a powdery blue. For uplifting and creative spaces then a good option would be an intense yellow or vibrant orange sofa. Whichever colour you decide on, it is important to create a balance by adding contrasts and creating visual breaks in the layout, to achieve a successful, cohesive, and well thought out scheme.

What size of modern sofa is best for your home

Our designers intention is always to create furniture which satisfies our customers varied tastes and expectations. It is therefore essential that there is a good selection of sizes to fit any area in the home. This is why so many of our ranges are available in not just 2- and 3-seater sofas, but corner sofas, armchairs and footstools too. It is not just about checking the length of the furniture but also the depth. A spacious deep-seated sofa allows you to curl up for the ultimate relaxed cosy space, but can your room dimensions accommodate this? If not, you may be better investing in a sofa that has a matching footstool, so you can still achieve that desirable cosiness, but the footstool can be moved to another area when you need the floor space. A corner sofa, although obviously a larger piece of furniture than a standard 2-seater sofa, can work just as well in a small space as well as a large interior, as it offers you the maximum number of seats in the minimum amount of floor space. Whatever size of furniture you decide on, you can be sure we will have the right size for you and your home in our SLF24 store.
