Sofas
A sofa anchors the living room and supports many parts of everyday life. It is a place to relax, read, entertain guests and spend time together. Our designer sofa collection brings together carefully proportioned seating made with quality frames, durable upholstery and materials selected for comfort and longevity.
The range includes compact two-seater sofas, generous family seating, modular systems, chaise sofas and corner configurations. Explore designs from &Tradition, HAY, Normann Copenhagen, Ethnicraft, Muuto, GUBI and Case Furniture.
From low-profile Scandinavian sofas and mid-century-inspired designs to deep modular seating, each piece offers a considered balance of form and function.
Sofas for rooms of every size
The correct sofa begins with the size and shape of the room. A two-seater sofa can provide comfortable seating in an apartment, snug or smaller living room without dominating the space.
For family rooms and everyday entertaining, three-seater sofas offer greater capacity while retaining a straightforward footprint. Larger rooms may suit our four-seater sofas or five-seater sofas.
A corner sofa can make efficient use of an open-plan room and help define the boundary between living and dining areas. Sofas with a chaise provide space to stretch out without requiring a separate footstool.

Modern, modular and classic sofas
Modular sofas are made from separate units that can be arranged to suit the room. Depending on the design, the layout may be expanded or reconfigured as the household changes. This makes modular seating a practical option for open-plan homes and rooms with unusual proportions.
HAY is known for contemporary sofa systems such as the Mags collection, which combines generous comfort with a clear architectural profile. Muuto offers a Scandinavian approach shaped by soft forms and practical modularity.
Ethnicraft combines comfortable upholstery with relaxed contemporary proportions, while &Tradition brings together archival designs and modern Scandinavian furniture. For more sculptural shapes and distinctive fabrics, explore GUBI.
A modular sofa should still be measured carefully. Confirm the dimensions of the complete configuration rather than an individual module, and check how each unit connects to its neighbour.
How to choose a comfortable sofa
Comfort is influenced by seat depth, seat height, back support and cushion construction. A deeper seat supports relaxed lounging, particularly for taller users, while a shallower seat makes it easier to maintain an upright position.
Low-backed sofas create a clean, open appearance but may provide less upper-back support. Higher backs can feel more supportive and suit longer periods of sitting. Cushion fillings also affect the experience. Foam provides a structured shape, while feather or fibre layers create a softer surface that may require regular plumping.
Measure the intended position and mark the sofa’s footprint on the floor. Allow room for side tables, lamps and comfortable movement. Remember to check doors, staircases, hallways and lifts along the delivery route.
The sofa’s visual scale matters alongside its physical dimensions. Raised legs and a slim frame can make a sofa feel lighter, while a low base and broad arms give it a more substantial presence.
Sofa upholstery and colour
Fabric sofas are available in a wide variety of colours, textures and durability levels. Wool is naturally resilient and comfortable, while woven blends can offer greater resistance to everyday wear. Bouclé introduces a tactile surface, and velvet gives colour additional depth.
Leather sofas develop a patina and can become more characterful with age. Different leather types vary in softness, surface protection and natural marking, so review the individual material specification and care guidance.
Neutral shades such as grey, beige and soft brown provide flexibility as the surrounding room changes. Green, blue and rust can create a more distinctive focal point while remaining versatile when paired with natural timber and restrained walls.
Brands such as Normann Copenhagen and HAY offer broad selections of contemporary upholstery, while Case Furniture focuses on refined silhouettes and materials suited to modern living.
Completing the living room
The furniture around a sofa should be proportionate and easy to reach. Browse our coffee tables for a central surface or add one of our side tables beside an arm.
A contrasting chair can make the seating arrangement more flexible. Our lounge chairs include upholstered armchairs, timber-framed seating and recognised design classics.
Layer the room with a designer floor lamp for ambient illumination and a table lamp for softer light beside the sofa. You can also explore coordinated options in our living room lighting collection.

Whether you need a compact couch, a spacious family settee or an adaptable modular sofa, this collection brings together furniture designed to provide lasting comfort and a strong foundation for the room.
What size sofa do I need?
Measure the intended space and leave enough room for movement, tables and lighting. Marking the sofa’s dimensions on the floor can help you understand its scale before ordering.
What makes a sofa comfortable?
Seat depth, cushion filling, back height and frame construction all affect comfort. Deep seats suit relaxed lounging, while shallower seats provide a more upright position.
What is the advantage of a modular sofa?
A modular sofa is made from individual units that can create different layouts. Some systems can be expanded or rearranged as the room or household changes.
What sofa colour is the most versatile?
Grey, beige, cream and soft brown work with many interiors and allow accent colours to change. A muted green or blue can also provide colour without becoming difficult to coordinate.
How should I care for a fabric sofa?
Vacuum it regularly with a suitable soft attachment and blot spills promptly. Use only cleaning methods approved for the specific upholstery fabric.
How do I know whether a sofa will fit through my doorway?
Compare the sofa’s width, height and depth with every doorway, hallway, staircase and lift on the delivery route. Removable legs may help, but this depends on the individual design.
