How to choose the right Habitat sofa

Gaya A. Gaya A.

When remodeling your home and buying new furniture, you should consider shopping at the Habitat shop. Yes, there are plenty of sofa shops around but if you want something unique and beautiful, the habitat UK is the best place to be. Since 1964, this company has been known to produce beautifully crafted and functional home furnishings from retro sofas, armchairs, dining lighting and many more. To help you choose the best sofas from Habitat, here are some tips.

Size and dimension

An oversize sofa may look nice is a big room but it will definitely look out of place in a smaller one. If you do not like your couch to take most of your living space, you need to pay close to the size and dimensions of your place. Measure the available space in your living room, taking into consideration the needed leg room and the amount of space you need for other things. After measuring the size of your room, measure the width of your doorway to make sure that you will be able to get the new couch inside the room.

Functionality and practicality

Functionality and practically should be one of your top considerations when buying a sofa. If you have limited space at home and you want to maximise the use of whatever space you have, you may want to invest in a sofa bed. On the other hand, if you plan to spend a lot of time on your couch watching TV, you should consider getting one of those sofas with recliner feature and a built-in drink holder or food tray.

Materials

Leather sofas are very comfortable but they get easily scuffed. If you have little kids or pets at home, you may want to forego buying that expensive leather sofa. Instead, you should consider getting one of those couches that come with easy to clean and detachable fabric covers.

Colors

Your sofa is one of the most noticeable furnishings in your home, so you should choose the colours of your sofa well. If you want to brighten up your room, you may go for white or bold and vivid colours such as deep purple, red or blue. On the other hand, if you want your room to have a cool and subdued ambiance, you should go for deep gray, brown or black.
