Seating – Sofa & Chair
Seating arrangements, should be conductive to conversation and relaxation and further the feeling of togetherness. Seating furniture, meaning chairs and sofas, are the nucleus of a good living room. This means chairs and sofas to suit different tastes and purposes ; a sofa on which one can stretch out ; a chair offering head and neck support with perhaps a footrest ; a chair that is comfortable for needlework or reading. Think out of possible ways of sitting and relaxing before making a final choice.
Two seater sofas are useful because they take up much less space than do two easy chairs. They also give mass and weight to the composition of your furniture, which might otherwise look disjointed. Bear in mind that while three seater sofas will look nice in a large room with generous proportions that need to be complemented with a large furnishing element, neither great comfort nor any real conversation is achievable by three people in a row – two talkers area all that they will happily accomodate, although they will, of course, take three TV watchers or listeners to music.
