When you enter a home, first thing that catches your mind is of course, sofa settee. It represents the real charm of the interior of that particular home. Though sofa is the heart of a living room, it has now conquered family living room, bed rooms and even upstairs and kitchen.

You can choose sofas according to two criteria – beautiful or convenient. When you buy a new settee for your home, be intelligent to choose one according to your family design. It also depends on members’ taste and total members in your home as well. Cushioning effect settee is best for family living room while normal ones suit official living room. One may choose neutral colours for furnishing materials. Cream, coffee brown, white or black shades suit best for such living rooms. To add attraction to such simple decorations, throw cushions with attractive colours is the best solution.

For family living room upholstery work with dark red, lemon green, yellow or orange can be chosen. For receiving unofficial guests or to arrange family get-togethers, such living rooms are simply the best. Throw cushions with neutral colours can be added here.

Shape and size of settee should suit well the room’s dimensions. Straight designs are best for wooden furniture while curved items of multi-colours may suit modern living room. If it is a traditional home structure, you can make royal designs in your settee too.

Never put fully upholstery settee in a small living room. Not only does it take a lot of space, but also gives a congested-look to your interior. In such cases, legs and hands of settee and chairs should clearly visible outside. For a small family, 3+2 arrangement is sufficient. According to the total member size, you can add more seats as well.

A few persons provide storage facilities for settee, while others may design it as a bed cum settee. Sofas that can be folded or that can be rolled from one place to another are other varieties. In limited areas of flats, you can choose ‘L’ shaped sofas. Sofas that can be separated according to use are also available.

Upholstery gives vital impact your settee. It comes under soft furnishing. Give preference to quality along with beauty also. Now variety of stuff is available for doing upholstery. It is also possible to use ‘mix and match’ strategy. You can experiment the combination of leather and cloth. Patterns with strips, floral, check and leather suit every interior. Texturized cloth never gets dirt easily.
