Castlery|Mar 20, 2024

Your living room is the heart of your home - a place where you relax, entertain, and create lasting memories. If you’re looking to turn your space into a chic and inviting oasis, modern living room sets are perfect for you!


In this guide, we’ve curated a list of the best living room sets for your home. Whether you’re a minimalist enthusiast or simply seeking the perfect combination of style and comfort, we’ve got you covered.

5 modern living room sets


Sleek and minimalistic elegance


Modern living room sets often feature sleek lines and a minimalist design - perfect for those who appreciate the beauty of simplicity.


Sofas and chairs with a minimal style typically feature straight arms and backs, giving them a streamlined appearance. Also, this design style often favours a neutral colour palette like white, black, grey, and beige. These neutral tones create a sense of serenity and provide a versatile backdrop for accent pieces or accessories.


Consider a living room set with a low-profile sofa and matching armchair or ottoman, such as the pieces from the Dawson Collection.

Complement the sofa set with a sleek coffee table like the Cupid Coffee Table that features a unique structural base and glass table top.


For something a little more cosy for movie nights or large gatherings, consider the Dawson Pit-Sectional Sofa from the same collection. This large sofa makes for the best lounging sessions as all the pieces fit together to form a makeshift bed.

Contemporary comfort


Contemporary designs refer to a design style that prioritises both aesthetics and comfort. It combines the sleek and stylish elements of contemporary design with a strong emphasis on creating a comfortable and inviting space for relaxation.


As the goal is to provide a soft and comfortable seating space, look for plush sofas and chairs with deep seats and soft cushions. These elements are often a characteristic of this style, allowing you to sink into the furniture.


Consider picking sofas from the Hamilton Collection as they boast a modern contemporary vibe with their sleek lines and plush seats. The sofa is also lifted off the ground by stainless steel legs that give it a floating effect.

Pair this sofa with other pieces that feature curved or rounded edges, like the Peri Coffee Table or Paloma Bouclé Armchair, to soften the overall look of the space.


Modular versatility


Modular sofas are great for many reasons - they can be arranged to fit any layout, they are ideal for small and big spaces, and they are easy to manoeuvre!


As they usually comprise individual pieces that can be fitted together easily, this provides you with versatility and freedom of customisation right at your fingertips.


Sofas in the Marlow Collection feature a modular design and would fit right into a minimalist home. The sofa’s channel tufted design helps to conceal the joined parts so your sofa looks like one full, cohesive piece - no matter the configuration.

You can separate them and use each unit individually as armchairs. Marlow is also fully upholstered in performance fabric, giving it spill and stain-resistant properties.


Pairing Marlow with an equally unique armchair like the Sacha Performance Bouclé Armchair can create a well-rounded look in the living room.

Oversized and spacious


Oversized living room sets are great for spacious living rooms to create a more inviting feel and minimise the negative space in the room. If you’re one to host, getting large sofas ensures that your family and guests always have a place to sit and lounge.


If this sounds like something up your alley, consider the living room set from the Mori Collection. The sofas are deep and spacious, offering ample seating for the ultimate lounging experience. Mori is also lifted off the ground with wooden slab legs, giving off a Japandi and minimalist aesthetic.

The Mori Build-Your-Own Living Room Set consists of a Sectional Chaise, Side Ottoman, Side Table, and Coffee Table.


Some pieces in the same collection come with alligator clips, such as the Mori Side Ottoman and Mori Side Table, so they can fit perfectly together when connected with the sofa. This gives you the flexibility to create a large and unique seating arrangement for your living room.


Bold and unique designs


If you’re all about making a statement in the living room, opt for sets that feature bold colours or unique designs. This can include sofas with asymmetrical backs, irregularly shaped coffee tables, or chairs with exaggerated curves.

Consider choosing colours like sapphire blue, cumin yellow, or moss green to add that pop of colour. If you prefer to go with a sofa that’s more neutral, accent with colourful pillows and throws, or introduce colour with a statement armchair.
