SOFAS MADE FOR LIFE

SOFAS MADE FOR LIFE

Your sofa is so much more than a sofa. At its most basic level, it’s a comfortable surface for you to flop onto at the end of a long day. A vantage point for your TV or the centrepiece of your living room.It’s also a counsellor. A secret keeper. An ice-breaker. A friend. It’s seen you at your happiest and your most vulnerable. It’s witnessed your good jokes and your dodgy dinners. It’s invited new friends, family members and possibly even a pet or two to come in and stay a while. It’s held you when you’ve really needed a hug. It’s even forgiven you for the time you spilled red wine on it’s newly steamed slipcovers and tried to turn them over. It’s stuffed full of memories, and if you pick a good one, you’ll be safe in the knowledge that your sofa will be there for you –come rain or shine, hell hangover –for the rest of your life. And so, you see, a sofa is so much more than a sofa.

SOFAS ARE FRIENDS FOR LIFE

In its lifetime, the average sofa will witness around 1800 hours of cuddles, 2700 hours of reading, 1000 date nights, 3000 films and 2300 phone conversations. Which means,if you’re looking to invest in a forever friend, there’s so much more to consider beyond price and colour. The silhouette, fabric, texture, height, colour and surface area all work together to create a couch that will evolve with you and help you make memories, as you move from one space and dynamic shift to the next.To celebrate the launch of our new campaign and to help you find your sofa for life, we’ve put together this handy guide to choosing your long-term love.

 

 

LET'S BE PRACTICAL

Planning ahead is an important part of investing in a couch. If the last year and half have taught us anything, it’s that we can’t predict what’s around the corner, but it is possible to have some sense of the direction you want life to take, whether it’s downsizing to a more compact, inner-city home, adding to your family or upsizing your space in the next few years. Key components to consider would be the colour and sturdiness of your fabric choice – bearing in mind that darker fabrics are a lot more forgiving if you’ve got young children or pets arriving on the scene soon. A sofa with washable slipcovers is another way to keep your options open as it’s the most durable couch for families because you can keep your couch cleaner for longer or change up the colour when you feel like a refresh. The Anna 3-Seater couch is a natural choice for this as it comes in 22 colourways, meaning you don’t have to commit to one look and feel for the rest of your life.

BUILDING BLOCKS

Sometimes you don’t know which direction life is going to take, and that’s also okay. A modular L-shaped couch is a good safety net in terms of planning for any eventuality because it can shape shift as your space does. These couches also suit a range of tastes, whether you’re going modern or country casual for your corner couch. The best part about a modular couch is being able to shift the blocks around so that you’re always at your most comfortable, come impromptu sleepover or movie marathon.

When you meet the right sofa, you’ll know. It’s not just about how it looks in your space, it’s the feeling you get when you sit or lie down and everything feels right with the world.

Each of our sofas has been designed to enhance your life in different ways, whether you’re opting for soothing Japandi silhouettes in the form of our new Aya 4-seater or the classic yet pretty Anne 3-Seater in Agnes Brown.
