START WITH A SOFA...

FIND YOUR SOFA SOULMATE AT SOFA.COM AND USE IT AS THE MAIN INSPIRATIO­N WHEN DECORATING YOUR LIVING SPACE

-

Making your sofa the heart of your living room scheme is a no-brainer – it’s the biggest piece of furniture in the room and the most used, so it’s the smartest starting point when decorating.

CHOOSE YOUR CENTREPIEC­E

If your old sofa has seen better days it’s worth upgrading to a new style. And if budget is an issue, sofa.com offers finance plans that let you spread your payments over six months up to four years. Need help deciding? Visit one of their showrooms – they also offer free virtual and in-store design consultati­ons.

PICK YOUR COLOUR SCHEME

Try following the decorating 60-30-10 rule for a steer. Decorate 60% of the room in your dominant colour, 30% in the secondary shade and 10% in an accent colour. Each sofa.com piece is handmade to order in a whole host of colours making your style choices far easier to make. Once you’ve decided on the style of sofa, plus any matching armchairs and footstools, the fabric and colour options are a huge considerat­ion too. Thankfully, every sofa from sofa.com comes in a wide range of sizes and in over 100 fabrics, so you can tailor your choice exactly as you wish.

BALANCE PATTERNS AND PLAINS

Decorate the wall behind the sofa in either a contrastin­g or a paler, co-ordinating colour, so that your sofa really stands out. Next, add a clutch of cushions, plus rugs, tables, art, vases and candles and so on - sofa.com has an extensive range of furniture and accessorie­s to help bring your scheme to life. So if you start by deciding on your dream sofa, the rest of the decorating puzzle will fall into place.
