How to choose the perfect sofa for your apartment: 3 keys to a good choice

The sofa is the heart of the living room. It should not only be beautiful, but also comfortable, durable, and match your lifestyle. To make the right choice, pay attention to three main components: shape, filling, and upholstery.

1. Shape: for space and needs
– A straight sofa is a classic for small rooms.
– A corner sofa is optimal for large living rooms or studio apartments.
– Modular – for those who like to change the space and customize it for themselves.

Tip: consider the dimensions of the aisles, the folding mechanism and the placement of the armrests.

2. Filling: comfort and durability
– Spring blocks – for daily sleep.
– Polyurethane foam (PU foam) – lightweight and resilient option for sitting and guest sleeping.
– Latex or Memory Foam – more expensive, but most comfortable for the back.

Tip: The filling density should be at least 25-30 kg/m³ for daily use.

3. Upholstery: beauty + durability
– Velor, microfiber, matting are soft to the touch and keep their shape well.
– Leather or eco-leather – look great, easy to clean.
– Anti-claw – ideal for homes with pets.

Tip: Choose fabrics with a wear resistance index of 20,000 cycles (Martindale test).
