The Ultimate Sofa Size Guide
When it comes to shopping for a new sofa there are lots of things to consider, from style and colour to shape and fabric. Perhaps most important of all is the size of the sofa you choose, as getting this right is imperative for a successful interior design in your home.
After all, this piece of furniture is usually the most prominent within your living area, making it the key focal point of your space. Not only does a sofa need to look the part but it also has to serve its pragmatic purpose of providing adequate seating for you and your guests.
So, with all of this in mind, how do you go about choosing the right sofa for your space?
In this blog post, we explore the range of sizes within our sofa collection, so you can shop for your next sofa with ease.
Chaise Sofas
A chaise sofa, also known as an L-shaped sofa, is the optimum choice for those looking to slot their sofa snugly into a corner of their living room. This design allows you to maximise your space, making room for other key features, such as a dining table and chairs. Due to the chaise’s ability to optimise space, whether you tuck it away to create a stylish cosy corner, or use it to divide your living space into a dedicated lounge area, it lends itself perfectly to both open-plan and smaller spaces.
Each of our chaise sofas comes in both left and right-hand designs, making them compatible with any chosen area of your home. Complete with pocket-sprung seats for supreme comfort, our chaise sofas perfectly balance function and style.

This is a great way to draw the eye and make your sofa a standout centrepiece against the rest of your decor.
