The most beautiful sofas

To create a flawless design, upholstered furniture is of great importance. The impression of the room as a whole depends on its appearance. Sofas can surprise and delight, but if they are chosen incorrectly, without taking into account the external environment, they will bring disharmony.

In spacious areas, sofas are given special attention, they are placed in the center of the room, organizing a relaxation area with the help of a large radius or U-shaped product. Sometimes they form a group of several small models, add them with chairs. Such interiors are very attractive, you want to relax in them with friends. But the most enthusiastic impressions are left by rooms with sofas of unusual, unique shapes and colors.

Designer novelties in the world of upholstered furniture never cease to amaze with the imagination of the authors. Sometimes the shapes are so bizarre that you don't immediately understand which object is in front of your eyes, and if you managed to guess, you still have to think about how to position yourself in it.

An extraordinary sofa is impressive either in an empty room or in an environment that "works" for it. Here, it is no longer the model that is integrated into the interior, but everything around is lined up for the sake of non-standard furniture. For example, sofas in the form of many balls are surrounded by round tables and lamps. The same theme is supported by the abundance of flat circles on the ceiling. Real balloons, hovering in space, bewitching with their multi-colored cords, also help.

The interior with sofas is unusually arranged in the form of clouds. Their whiteness and splendor can manifest themselves only against a contrasting black background, to which the atmosphere in the room is subordinated.For more persuasiveness, a picture of a cloudy sky has been added.

Sometimes designers transcend themselves in pursuit of originality. The unusual angular model bends not horizontally, but vertically. The sofa set against the wall is not enough for them; they need him to climb on it.

Animals are a special theme in the design of upholstered furniture. Everyone is already accustomed to children's toy sofas, but look at how believable hippos, walruses and turtles made of dyed leather, intended for living rooms, look like.

The adults' interiors also borrowed the theme of cars from children's rooms. Some models have barely guessed shapes, but there is another, very realistic line of sofas made from real car bodies.

There are also very strange choices for sofa design. For example, not everyone dares to sit on a prickly green cactus. And furniture designers suggest doing this, guaranteeing complete safety.

You can find soft products in the form of a bird's nest, beautiful mountains or hands, gently supporting the seated person.

There are many sofas that are not themed but have their own unique geometric shapes.

Upholstered furniture always attracts attention. Saturated bright color or range of shades. The accent sofa will shape the design of the living room around it, pushing the rest of the furniture into the background.

Sometimes the interior is lined up without bright accents, but in beautiful calm colors, in monochrome, for example, from different shades of blue, brown or another color.

If you want to create a monotonous, light interior, but at the same time highlight the sofa without disturbing the general tranquility, just give it a little shine, make it pearlescent, and it will become a pearl in the "shell room".

The gray scale will help to introduce notes of noble tranquility into the design. To add tenderness, you can introduce a light lilac shade into the setting.

The combination of white, black and red colors attracts, there is something mystical in their combination.

Interesting is the alternation of stripes in the design, the so-called zebra print. It is especially impressive on irregular sofas with a wavy line.

Vigor and a cheerful atmosphere are formed around them by variegated products that are not limited to one or two shades. Designers, choosing paints, do not deny themselves anything. Especially it concerns patchwork techniques (patchwork sewing).

Today, people are increasingly stylizing their interiors, subordinating them to a specific theme, for example, country, modern, minimalism. There are all the possibilities for this: available information on design, a large assortment of furniture for sale. Sofas can be found in all shapes, sizes and shades, but each direction requires a certain type of upholstered furniture.

Let's consider the most popular styles that are most often found in our apartments.

The classic-style interior is a discreet luxury and aristocracy. The furniture contains straight lines and clear geometric proportions. This classic is made from natural materials. The frame, armrests are made of natural wood, which gives strength and durability to the entire product.

Examples of classic sofas:

• extravagant model with impeccable symmetrical shapes;
• expensive classic furniture has a moderate beauty, but no pompous luxury.

Upholstered furniture today skillfully combines functionality and spectacular appearance. Often, models are complemented by tables, shelves, lamps built into the design of the sofa.They do not have the pomp and stiffness of historical models, but they are varied and surprisingly attractive. This can be seen by considering examples of modern interiors:

• a dazzling white model in a minimalist interior;

• upholstered furniture, as if spied by the designer from nature, its forms are similar to a scattering of sea pebbles.

Art Deco translates as "decorative art". This is a French style dating back to the early twentieth century. It absorbed elements of different directions - modern, classicism, constructivism, there are ethnic motives in it, but there is no place for modernity and artificial materials.

Art Deco was able to balance the use of straight lines and ornate images, emphasizing the rich chic of the product. From hi-tech, he borrowed the sharpness and light abstractness of forms. Special attention is paid to spectacular fragments, most often the themes of animals are taken as a basis, folk and colonial trends are felt.

Both styles are based on minimalism, rejection of excessive decor, materialism and clutter. Upholstered furniture is simple, but functional; it can have linen boxes, pillows. The frames are made of natural wood, the mattresses are made of hard fillings, with the exception of the Japanese modern futon sofa.

In the past, futons were sacks filled with wool and cotton and were used instead of a bed. Today these are low sofas with thick mattresses. Sleeping and seating places of upholstered furniture in Japanese and Chinese style are located almost at the very floor.

Modern urban style, the name of which is translated from English as "high-tech". For the first time it became known about him in the sixties of the last century. The high-tech interior is virtually devoid of decor. Its absence is compensated by the play of chiaroscuro, the abundance of light, its reflection in chrome details, glass, mirrors.

In most cases, they are made from leather or a uniform dense fabric. Chromium-plated parts are often introduced into the design of upholstered furniture, for example, legs, handrails.

• A leather sofa with a clear geometry and a chrome frame, made in compliance with all norms of this direction.

• A sophisticated high-tech model on a metal base, complemented by functional shelves.

The style of the French countryside is saturated with the atmosphere of the sea and the sun, which is why it is so cozy and attractive. Unlike high-tech, decor is welcome here.

Measure the parameters and understand in which direction it should transform into a bed.

Then you should inspect the situation in the room, it will help you choose the product in style and color. There can be two options: the tone of the sofa matches the interior, or it is accentuated. For example, a scarlet sofa appears in a black and white setting. In this case, it should be supported by smaller objects - red lamps, a painting, a large vase.

When the general tasks are solved, you should pay attention to the sofa itself. If it is going to be used as a bed, the mechanism must be sturdy enough to cope with daily unfolding. A comfortable sleeping mattress is selected eg with independent springs, orthopedic properties, latex based.
