Bold colors and strict lines are the ideal choice for the interiors in modern style while rounded shapes and neutral tone sofa designs will blend harmoniously in a traditional or classic style interior.

In case you made such a mistake, a few bright pillows will highlight it and make it stand out.

It is equally important to choose your new sofa so that it complements your existing furniture. Prestigious manufacturers offer additional furniture pieces like side tables, coffee tables, ottomans, etc. which will add to the finished look and of course, to your convenience.

Upholstery – It is easy to recognize a high quality upholstery and exquisite craftsmanship. Choose a dense, durable fabric that does not allow contaminants to penetrate deep into the fibers. The upholstery must be well stretched, evenly and properly secured. The seams should be flat, without protruding threads and stitches must be of the same size. Chenille, suede, velvet, linen, natural leather – these are all high end materials and a great choice for a sofa.
