Just as there are many different types of living room layouts, sizes, and styles, there are various types of sofas that are used to accentuate them. Some are large, some are compact, and others are medium sized. If you’ve been wondering what type of a sofa you should use in your living room, here are some useful ideas and tips to keep in mind:

This maximalist style sofa usually comes with a large girth and is specifically designed for living rooms that are oversized, fancy, and have an open floor layout. They have a bold presence and come in many styles – even modular ones where each sofa module can be rearranged in any kind of a layout you want depending on the size and dimensions of your space!
2. Plush 3-seater

If your living room is narrow on top of being small, then you should go for a good old 3-seater couch that’s set-up against the wall. The good news is that this 3-seater sofa can be as stylish and unique as you want. From plush leather La-Z Boy style to eclectic velvet upholstered designs, you can choose your pick according to the interior design theme of your homes.
3. Minimalist style
