Finding the ideal piece of furniture can be quite a challenge. Whether you’re embarking on a complete interior overhaul or simply seeking a fresh addition like a bedside table, the goal is to select furniture that feels like a seamless fit for your living space. At Mad About Furniture, we recognize that the living room serves as the heart of your home, and when it comes to choosing a new sofa, there are several crucial factors to weigh in on.
To simplify this process, we’ve compiled a list of the top 5 things to contemplate when you’re in the market for a sofa.
1. Room Size
Your quest for the perfect sofa begins right at home. Before you dive into considerations of style and colour, it’s essential to understand the dimensions of your room. Often overlooked, room size is a critical factor that you need to consider, and without precise measurements, your sofa may end up either too grandiose or too petite for the space. It’s wise to err on the side of caution by slightly overestimating the required dimensions.
2. Seating Capacity
Ensuring ample seating space for your household is, of course, a necessity. If you frequently host guests in your home, you’ll also want to accommodate them comfortably. Beyond merely counting heads, consider how you prefer to sit on your sofa. If lounging is your style, a corner sofa might be a wise investment. The array of available sofa types is vast, so it’s helpful to establish your preferences in advance. Should the sofa of your choice not have enough space to meet all your seating needs, don’t forget the option of adding an accompanying chair to elevate both style and functionality.
3. Comfort is King
Comfort reigns supreme when it comes to enjoying your new sofa investment. We highly recommend testing a sofa out in person, as this is the only way to ascertain if it meets your comfort standards. Comfort is an entirely personal matter, and a sofa’s appearance doesn’t always necessarily correlate with its comfort level! At the Mad About Furniture showroom in Estepona, we have a fantastic range of sofas for you to explore. Our dedicated interior designers are always happy to show you around our selection and help you find the right sofa for your needs.
4. Choice of Fabric
The choice of fabric is a pivotal aspect of both comfort and style. Are you inclined towards the supple allure of leather or the plush embrace of a velvet-like surface? Additionally, neutral fabrics often imbue your interior with timeless appeal, while vibrant colours can make your furniture piece a vibrant focal point. Keep in mind that your chosen fabric will be your companion for years to come, so it’s important to take your time in our showroom to touch and feel the fabric options to make a well-informed decision.
5. Matching Style
Last, but certainly not least, your sofa should align with the overall style of the room and your personal preferences. Remember that you’re the one who will be looking at and sitting on it day in and day out! At Mad About Furniture, we offer an array of sofa styles, including leather sofas, fabric sofas, sofa beds, chaise lounges, corner sofas, and more. These come in a multitude of colours and size combinations, so we’ve got something for everyone. Visit our Estepona showroom to browse and try them out at your leisure!
