In the previous blog we talked about the first model of sofa which was the loveseat. We mentioned a very precise and sleek model and now is time to continue with the other types of sofas.

Modular sofa – Mario Bellini sofa

The modular sofa is one of the most chosen types when people have a more spacious place since they tend to be larger pieces than loveseat or regular ones. 

According to Simplicity Sofas, the average size for a 5 seat sectional configuration with equal sides is 95″ x 95″ or 98″ x 98″ with depths of 36″ – 40″. We must mention that exists multiple options such as the Mario Bellini sofa that has the following dimensions: Height: 26.4”, width: 113.4”, depth: 37.8” .

The Camaleonda sofa, as many people also called, is the perfect example of a modular modern piece because it shows very clean and dynamic lines, light color, and sleek material which is the iconic aniline leather.

Floor sofa – Togo sofa

The floor sofas have a more relaxed and informal appearance. They are recognized for having a lower height than regular sofas.

An example of this type of sofa is the Togo sofa.

Within the furniture world, there are plenty of styles and designs that we must be aware of when we intend to decorate or remodel our spaces. So, if you are about to remodel or decorate your home for the first time, it is important that you previously nourish yourself with information about the structures that best suit you. Today we will show you three types of sofas that are the most used in the homes of American families. These three sofas are adapted to certain needs that we will show you later, let’s get started!

Loveseat – LC2 sofa

The loveseat is basically a two-seat sofa that has an average size of 58 inches. This is perfect for apartments or condos. Thanks to its dimensions, it adapts perfectly to the rooms that the apartments and regular condos have configured. As an example there is the LC2 sofa or Le Corbusier sofa which reflects a quite elegant and functional style that combines with various pieces and color palettes.

The LC2 sofa is fully upholstered with Italian leather, which makes it a truly durable and versatile piece, and besides, who doesn’t love leather?

Walls are a real basic element in Interior Design, among the very bones of the structure of one space. Walls have a clear functional role, but they are perfect to show some décor and to express ourselves;  so all décor features are welcomed. As usual, balance is our best guiding principle, and is easy to tell when  one wall is overcharged with excess of portraits, shelves, or another element.

The relation wall – furniture is key to get a balanced room. When it comes to color, neutral hues are most of the time used in our walls to allow our  furniture shine by itself with bold choices. At the same time, walls may bring that special touch of contrasting color carrying our wall art,

High res photo or metal design. Among the most trendy wall elements for décor we have:

Macrame nets.

Very trendy nowadays, there are endless possibilities and models of hanging macramé nets bringing you a natural, warm experience when you see it every day. Macrame tend to be associated with light woods and clear colors, and is natural thinking in a Scandinavian décor as the ideal trend where Macrame can bright at its best. A Shell Chair is a great furniture addition in front of a wall with some macrame style.                                                              

Wall Art.

Traditionally wall art (paints, portraits, photographs) is a standard for almost every home. Walls are a great medium to expose or express our feelings and principles. Art is always well received. Nowadays,  High -Res photographs are a little passed; just like too extended personal or familiar images. Any image of set of images related to personal experiences and relations must be properly “cured, so you can show only the proper information. A colorful piece of furniture, like the Womb Chair, may fit really great in in a expressive set up.

Metal Wall Art.

An interesting choice that brings texture and beauty  to your wall. There are infinite possibilities in materials, designs aWomb Chair,nd size to get some character. You have to worry only about choosing an interesting theme, coherent with your style. Industrial furniture or Mid Century  Modern style are great trends to mix perfect with metal décor. The Barcelona Chair, with a stainless steel “X” shape frame and its black leather is a natural choice.

This time looks like the stunning advances in printing, transform wallpapers into the ultimate décor tool.

In the previous blog, we talked about why design lovers love leather so much and explained a brief overview of the LC2 sofa. Taking into account the aforementioned model, it should be noted that within that same collection – Le Corbusier’s LC collection – there is another sofa with the same upholstery and stainless steel. The piece we are talking about is the incredible LC3 sofa.

The LC3 sofa is a variation of the LC2 sofa for when you have more members in the family and you want to offer a comfortable backrest. As all sofas in this category it is upholstered in fine and soft leather. The LC3 sofa also has the same padding as the previous one, but compared to the LC2 sofa, this one doesn’t have a double cushion.

Another of the perfect options for this 2021 is the Florence Knoll sofa. This type of sofa generally falls into the modern / mid-century category because it reflects the traits that both styles share. These traits are basically the clean and defined lines, the leather material, and the steel accents. As you can see, this sofa has a similar description to the previous one but the difference goes back to the beautiful and striking buttons that this sofa has inserted in its backrest. These buttons are what give them that retro touch that subtly contrasts with the modernity of their structure.

Man’s love for leather is a persistent sentiment in any field. Whether in fashion or furniture, people’s preference for leather is something that has not changed, not even in the last few years that have been so revolutionary.

Leather is a resistant material and tends to captivate with its shine and natural finish. The properties that confer these characteristics on leather usually vary from one leather to another. For example, aniline is one of the most used leathers in the world of furniture design, this type of leather is much loved by manufacturers for its organic appearance since it has the slight stains or darker tones of the original leather. Within this category of leather there are several modern sofas that are an excellent option for this 2021. Today we have brought you a small list of options in case you want to configure a new vibe or look for your living room. Let us begin!

The LC2 sofa

The LC2 sofa is a creation made by the iconic designer Le Corbusier which has external tubes made of stainless steel, in order to demonstrate elegance and the organic lines representative of modern design. This sofa is upholstered in aniline leather and is filled with high-density foam.

In the previous blog, we talked about the etymology of the word couch and how this helps to understand the difference between couch and sofa. In case you haven’t read it yet, we recommend that you do so before continuing.

Now, as what the couch is has already been explained, it’s time to show you what exactly the sofa refers to and see how an LC3 sofa can help us to completely understand the difference. Let’s continue! 

According to Wikipedia, a classic sofa consists of a “wooden structure lined with fabric and padded in some areas (for example, on the armrests). To it are added cushions of various fillings that make up the seat and the backrest…A typical sofa seats one to four people and has armrests for both”.

These are the keywords to understand the differences, basically sofas structures include both arms and they are created to satisfy the necessities of more users than the couches. Let’s see the LC3 sofa and the Togo couch. 

LC3 sofa

Togo sofa 

As you can see, the formal LC3 sofa has two arms and seats 1 to 3 people. On the other hand, the Togo sofa only has a seat for 1 or 2 people and it has a more casual chaise lounge type structure.

Have you encountered this question before? Do you say couch or do you say sofa? Is there any difference? Scroll down and find out the slight difference between these two terms widely used in the furniture world, using our beloved LC3 sofa as a reference.

The word sofa and couch are commonly used to refer to the same piece of furniture, the one that stars in all rooms and that is responsible for offering back and lumbar support to thousands of families. Now, is there a difference between these terms? To clarify this doubt we have investigated in a number of blogs and we have come across a constantly mentioned difference, which is understood by first understanding the etymology of one of the two terms, let’s see.

The term couch comes from an old French verb “couche”, which means “to lie down”, therefore couches structures need to satisfy this meaning. These structures do not normally have arms and possessing them commonly only one of the two is seen. In addition, the couches must be smaller and can offer support for 1-2 people. 

That being said, sofas are the opposite of this, let’s see the LC3 sofa structure to understand this point. Click to get know the general description of sofas.
