Looking for a new sofa? Why not opt for a modular sofa? This model offers many advantages and is ideal for relaxing after a hard day's work. But to make the most of this equipment, it's best to choose it with care. That's the secret of optimum comfort!
The basics for a successful choice
First and foremost, you need to determine the ideal size for your room. If it's too big, you won't be able to move around, and if it's too small, it'll feel like it's shrinking and won't hold many people. Living in a studio? The two-seater model is for you. A huge living room will be enhanced by a sofa that seats four or more.
You'll also want to take a look at the materials that make up your future sofa. The frame is generally made of wood. It's best to opt for a model with a removable frame for easier maintenance. Fabrics come in many variants: cotton, leather, bamboo, velvet, wool, microfiber? Always choose an easy-to-clean, dirt-repellent covering. And listen to yourself. Hate the softness of velvet? Forget sofas covered in this fabric! The upholstery of the cushions should also be checked. It's best to opt for a sofa made from characteristic materials.
Do you like to be wrapped in softness? Choose a soft sofa. If, on the other hand, you hate curling up in cushions, choose a firm model.
Find the right modular sofa for you
So much for the first criteria to consider. But of course it doesn't stop there, and one of the most important aspects of your choice will be the style of the sofa.
Once again, there's a multitude of models to choose from, and you'll be able to find the ideal one to match your room's decor and style. Play with colors to adopt the perfect model. In a zen or contemporary living room, the characteristic shades will be superb: beige, taupe? Is your room more classic? A model in havana leather will be just the thing. Or are you looking for originality? Choose sofas in the colors of the moment, from duck blue to Very Peri. Flamboyant colors bring dynamism to a room. Pastel shades soften the mood.
You can have fun too. A modular sofa is made up of different blocks that you assemble as you wish. So why not imagine a sofa made up of blocks in different shades? Play on a chromatic range for an elegant effect (a variation of light and dark blue, for example). Use contrasts for a punchy effect (combine red and green or blue and orange). All anyone will see is your sofa! But for a successful decorative effect, if the sofa is strong in color, the rest of the room should be wiser.
Black and white are still the best colors for a refined contemporary ambience.
Do you occasionally need a bed for entertaining friends? Then a convertible model will be perfect. Don't forget, for their comfort, to choose a good mattress to transform your equipment into a quality bed.
Last but not least, adapting the sofa to your room can be a very judicious choice for a successful design. In a square room, you can get away from the beaten path of the corner sofa against the wall by adding a meridienne that extends away from the wall. You can also use pouffes or seat-warmers scattered around the room (provided it's a large one).
