A sofa is a centerpiece in any living room, it’s what makes a statement, creates a mood and supports or even sets the style of the room. What color to choose for your main furniture item? Black and tan are classics that are already boring, white is too dirtying, bright colors aren’t for every space and when you change the surroundings, they may not match. I have a solution: brown! Brown is a soothing earthy color, among those that are so popular now, and unlike tan it’s not that banal. Brown can easily blend into many spaces and it’s very compatible, almost any color will work with it.
What Brown Sofa To Choose?
There are many types of upholstery depending on your needs, conditions and how many (if any) children and pets you have but the most popular upholstery fabric for a brown sofa is leather. You can find many other fabrics, too, but a brown leather sofa can become that timeless piece that will be always in, whatever renovation you decide to make. Go for a timeless mid-century modern design and it will easily blend into many interiors.
As for the shades, they are many, too, and you may go from lighter to rich and darker shades, choose colder or warmer toned upholstery, just consider the interior that you already have.
