Home decoration, choosing a sofa is very important, so what are the taboos in choosing a sofa?
8 taboos in choosing a sofa for home decoration
1. Don’t ignore style
When choosing a sofa, never see a beautiful sofa in the store and buy it right away. After buying it, I found that the style that looks good in the model room is very awkward to put in my own home. When choosing a sofa, you must pay attention to the harmony between the style of the sofa and the overall decoration style. Compared with the basic decoration of the family, in addition to the use function, the sofa also plays a role in setting off the environment. Therefore, the style and color of the sofa must be unified with the main colors of home decoration and decoration.
2. Don’t consider the size
When choosing a sofa on the market, you will find that there are many sizes of sofas, and there are hundreds of them. Brand sofa stores generally have exhibition halls to display their products. It should be noted that the visual sense given to us by the exhibition hall is relatively broad. If you only use the naked eye to estimate the size of the sofa, there will often be a large deviation. It becomes crowded; the sofa size is small, and the proportion of the overall space is out of balance. Therefore, when choosing a sofa, in order to avoid being misled by the wide exhibition hall, you should first understand the area of your living room or bedroom, and then choose a suitable sofa.
3. Don’t consider your family’s living habits
In addition, when looking at the sofa, you must also fully consider some of your family’s daily living habits. For example, the elderly like to read newspapers on the sofa, children like to eat snacks on the sofa, and young people like to drink some coffee when watching TV. In this case, You can choose a sofa with an open grid and armrests, or a sofa with a movable shelf. Use the open grid or shelf for storage, which not only saves space but also facilitates life. Small-sized living rooms do not allow space In particular, it can be used for reference.
4. Do not consider the diameter of the sofa
The back is one of the most sensitive parts of the human body. The diameter and depth of the sofa directly determines whether people feel comfortable. The common size of the sofa diameter on the market is 95 cm, which is suitable for people under 1.7 meters in height; people with a height of 1.7 meters or more should choose a sofa with a diameter of 105 cm in depth, which can completely relieve the tension on the back . For young people who are usually under a lot of work pressure, you can choose a sofa with a large diameter and depth. For example, the Boloni sofa deepens the diameter to 125 cm, so that your whole body can sink into the sofa completely loosely.
5. Do not consider the load-bearing capacity of the sofa
The load-bearing capacity of the sofa determines the service life of the sofa, and the frame of the sofa directly determines the load-bearing capacity of the sofa. To choose a durable sofa, first of all, it depends on whether the frame of the sofa is durable and not easily deformed. The frame of the sofa must be made of solid wood, and imported eucalyptus is the first choice for the solid wood frame. The main frame of the sofa made of eucalyptus can be guaranteed for at least 6 years, which is unmatched by ordinary wood.
6. Do not consider the resilience of the sofa
If you have children at home, families whose children usually like to jump around on the sofa should pay attention. When choosing a sofa, you should consider whether the sofa is easy to deform. Generally, only serpentine springs are used in the traditional sofa frame. Such a sofa is prone to deformation and collapse after a period of use, which affects the appearance and use of the sofa. Nowadays, sofas with better resilience generally use a combination of serpentine springs and bandages, so that the firmness and resilience of the sofa will be doubled, and even if your child jumps wildly on the sofa, the seat cushion will not easily deform.
7. Do not consider the comfort of the cushion
Sofas that are too hard or too soft are not suitable for the normal sitting and lying of the human body, and will have a certain impact on the human spine. The comfortable sofas on the market now use a new type of seat cushion with sponge and down. The bottom of the sofa frame is first covered with multiple layers of sponges with different resilience to ensure that the seat cushion is evenly stressed during use. At the same time, down is added to the sponge. In this way, the problem of softness or hardness in the traditional sofa cushion process can be solved, and the newly added down can ensure the sofa’s load-bearing while satisfying the needs of human comfort to the greatest extent.
8. Do not consider the wear resistance and cleanability of the sofa
If there are old people and children in the family, it is necessary to choose sofa fabrics with good anti-fouling and wear resistance. In addition to leather fabrics, suede and twill fabrics are the first choice. This material has a delicate feel similar to animal fur. Its warp and weft threads have a high combination density, which is wear-resistant and not easy to deform. It has strong waterproof, anti-fouling, anti-oil stain, anti-tear function, very suitable for families with pets. At the same time, when buying a sofa, you can also order an extra set of sofa covers, which is convenient for frequent replacement and cleaning.
