Corner Settee

Look! This room has no ceiling! Ahhh! But nice corner sofa, isn't it?

Three piece suite or corner settee? Some people get concerned about fabric and style nonsense when looking for sofas. That’s something to consider with interior decorating or home improvement projects, but to my mind it is not the first by any stretch of the imagination. When picking sofas for your flat the number one thing to think about is how you are going to use them. So you’re thinking, “I’m going to sit on them”. Brilliant. Not all of them at once I hope? No, you don’t select living room seating for your own personal uses, it should be selected based on the company you keep.

A three piece suite, the three seater sofa, two seater, and matching chair, is a bit more formal. Or maybe classy is the right word. It’s the preferred option if you envision your living room as a place where perhaps other couples (assuming you are in a couple as well) will come over and chat over wine and cheese. Not only does it look more traditional but it is more functional for that purpose. You can move the seats around to form three sides of a rectangle, put a little table in the middle and voila! You have a great environment for conversation.

On the other hand, if you’re building your living room around the telly, you might want to go for the corner settee. Whether you’re throwing back some pints while watching sport with your mates or having a few pints with friends during a fierce round of Call of Duty on your Xbox, the sectional sofa is going to be your best bet. It typically seats as many as a three piece set (usually 6) or more, and doesn’t waste valuable corner space with silly end tables with fancy lamps that are just going to get knocked over when you hook the Wii up.

Material is something to consider as well. As a general rule, leather is easier to clean, but fabric can look nicer. You see where I’m going with this now? If you’re leaning towards a three piece suite, you might also consider leaning towards fabric. If instead you find yourself drawn to the sectional sofa, leather might be the smart way to proceed. It all comes down to wine and cheese vs. beer and crisps. Then again, wine does tend to stain terribly so you might actually want leather all around. Come to think of it, stick with the corner settee also, and the beer.
