Sectional Sofas

L-shaped sofas can work really well in living rooms of all dimensions. As they create a natural division between spaces, L-shaped sofas are ideal for open plan living spaces that need to be divided into separate ‘zones’. If your lounge is a little smaller, you can place your L-shaped sofa in the corner of the room to create a comfortable and generous seating space.

If you need a large, spacious seating area, sectional sofas are the perfect choice. Their clever design means sectional sofas can be as large as you need them to be, ensuring there’s plenty of space for everyone in your Australian household.

L-shaped sofas look fantastic when piled high with stylish cushions. Run your cushions along the length of the sofa to ensure everyone gets a cushion and the sofa looks balanced.

Sectional sofas come in a variety of configurations to suit any room layout and lifestyle:

• Pit Sectional Sofas: Designed for the ultimate gathering space, pit sectionals are typically square and offer a communal feel, ideal for lounging and socialising.
• L-shaped Sectional Sofas: Perfect for corner placement, L-shaped sectionals maximise seating in limited spaces while defining areas within larger rooms.
• Chaise Sectional Sofas: These sofas extend one end into a chaise, providing a built-in footrest or extra seating that's perfect for stretching out and relaxing.
• Reversible Sectional Sofas: Offering flexibility, reversible sectionals allow you to switch the orientation of the chaise from left to right, adapting easily to any room changes or moves.

Each configuration has been thoughtfully designed to enhance your living space's functionality and aesthetic, ensuring there's a perfect sectional sofa for every home.

Small spaces demand careful consideration when choosing furniture to maximise function without overwhelming the area. Sectional sofas, with versatile configurations, can optimise tight quarters by fitting snugly into corners or delineating living areas in studio or open-plan layouts.

For small spaces, consider compact-sized sectionals, such as those with fewer sections or a more modest chaise. Reversible or modular sectionals offer the flexibility to adjust configurations to match your living space’s layout and needs over time.

Traditional sofas are single, non-segmented pieces that come in standard shapes like two-seater or three-seater options. On the other hand, modular sofas and sectional sofas offer more flexible seating options that accommodate larger group sizes or unconventional living spaces.

Modular sofas consist of individual pieces that can be arranged and rearranged to fit various room layouts and functions. This design allows you to add or remove sections as needed, which is ideal for those who enjoy customising their living space or often move furniture around.

Sectional sofas, on the other hand, typically come in fixed configurations such as L-shaped or U-shaped arrangements. They are designed to provide ample seating and make efficient use of corner spaces or large areas. Sectionals are great for those who need a lot of seating and want to define larger living spaces.

Here are some tips for cleaning your sectional sofa:

• Routine Maintenance: Vacuum the sofa regularly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris from the surface and crevices. This is particularly important for sectional sofas as they often have more creases and corners than standard sofas.
• Spot Cleaning: Address spills and stains immediately to prevent them from setting. Use a clean, damp cloth to blot spills gently. For tougher stains, use a solution of mild detergent and water, but always test it on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn’t damage the fabric.
• Professional Cleaning: For thorough cleaning, especially in the case of deep stains or accumulated dirt, consider hiring professional upholstery cleaners. They can provide deep cleaning services that are safe for your sofa’s specific material.
• Rearrangement and Care: One advantage of sectional sofas is their configurability. Periodically rearrange the sections to ensure even wear and tear, especially if certain sections receive more use than others.
• Protective Measures: Use throws or covers to protect your sectional from spills and stains, especially in high-use areas. This is also a helpful strategy to prolong the life of the fabric or leather.

To determine the best layout for your sectional sofa, start by measuring your room and noting the locations of doors and windows. Consider the flow of traffic to ensure the sofa doesn't block pathways. Balance the sectional with other furniture to maintain a cohesive look and optimise its placement based on its primary use, whether for watching TV or socialising.
