More people are opting to fill their small living room with a sectional set rather than trying to get a large couch, love seat, and recliner as many people have done in the past. What is the thinking behind this trend? We’re going to show you three sectional features that make them the perfect choice for a small apartment or living room.
A Chaise Sectional Makes Better Use of the Living Space
The first reason that people are falling in love with more compact living room furniture is that the 2-piece sectional with chaise can comfortably fit in just about any room. A small sectional sofa allows at least three people to sit and gives room for a coffee table.
When you add the chaise in, another two people can sit there, or one person can recline. While some people may malign the chaise sofa for being armless, they’re still a good way to accommodate guests.
There are also options for reclining sectionals that are still small enough to help people sleepover without having to use bulky, large sleeper sofas. All in all, a sectional couch that makes use of the half u-shaped designed offers plenty of sitting space for the whole family, and a chaise add-on to the sofa set is perfectly versatile.
Home Decor Considerations and Variability
A major issue that has caused people to seek modern sofa designs in smaller rooms owing to apartment and duplex designs. Often, people will find that a large sectional cannot fit in the family room because the armrests are not situated properly. As a result, the small sectional sofas and chaises are becoming a popular means to obtain furniture that is perfect for a small space.
For example, there are reversible sectionals that can be constructed so as to put the armrests on either side. The same can be said for a reversible chaise. The modern chaise lounge, as part of a 3-piece sectional set, is thus nearly modular in that it can conform to most room layouts. There are even sleeper sectional sets that are modular and can be swapped as necessary.
The modular sectionals and reversible sofa models are perfect for small homes, and that has contributed to their popularity. The chance to make a sofa right-facing to suit your space is wonderful and highly desired by people.
Modern Living Room Materials Are High Quality
The final thing that people love about purchasing these small sectionals is that they are made up of a variety of high-quality, variable materials. The benefit of having various frames and seat cushions’ material is that it allows people to show within their means and get the materials they desire.
Starting with the frames of a futon, it’s possible to get them in metal and wood frames. The seat cushions are usually foam cushions, but the coverings can vary. For example, there are microfiber and faux leather coverings. Throw pillows usually come in microfiber for added comfort, but you can get an entirely leather sectional if you enjoy the style or feel.
The upholstery on the seat and back cushions is often customizable so that you get a fair amount of comfort from the headrest. All in all, the materials that are present on these products make them desirable and comfortable.
While most of the formerly popular sectional sofas were once large and bulky, the new modern style has seen a transition to smaller products. The quality materials along with the ability to swap the sections from right arm to left to suit your specific needs are all factors that people enjoy most, and that is why they’re going to keep buying them.
