Collection: Sofas and Armchairs

No. Matching pieces can make the room feel coordinated, but mixing different shapes or fabrics often works well if the colours and proportions still feel balanced together. If you are combining separate pieces, compare their seat heights and overall scale so one does not look noticeably too small or too bulky beside the other.

An armchair can be a better option if you need one extra seat without committing to a much wider sofa. It also gives you more freedom to position seating around a window, fireplace or television, so think about whether you need extra capacity in one fixed place or more flexibility around the room.

Look at how each person actually sits rather than trying to make one sofa suit everyone. One person may prefer deeper lounging, while another may want firmer support or a recliner, so combining a sofa with a different armchair can be more practical than choosing identical seating throughout the room.

It can if you need occasional sleeping space as well as everyday seating, but check how much floor space it needs once opened. A compact convertible seat is most useful when you can leave enough clearance to unfold it properly without having to move several other pieces of furniture each time.
