Country Sofas
Your sofa style will make a big impact in the room. It lets you know what your specific design style is. This is a big investment so you want to make sure that you focus on shape and pattern as well as color and the lines. You can find a sofa that will work with almost any design style or get one that is very specific to the theme. Here are a few tips for figuring out which design is right for you.
A country sofa style can incorporate a lot of different themes. It could be shabby chic, country, cottage or even French country. Each of these types will have a distinct feeling to them. They all do have something in common though. They do tend to use color instead of a more neutral color palette. You can also incorporate a lot of different patterns. Some of these sofas may even have mixed patterns with a variety of checks and floral prints. In this case you want to keep your walls and the rest of your furniture neutral so that the fabric is really the star of the room. This way your space won't seem too overwhelming.
This sofa style is perfect for a family with dogs or kids. It usually uses durable fabrics that are already a little bit faded or worn. Plus, they are very oversized and comfortable. It will provide a lot of seating. The downside to this is that it might seem a little bit overwhelming like you have too much furniture in the room. However, you still want to make sure that you get all of the functionality and seating that you need in your space.

Modern and Contemporary Sofa Styles
Modern and contemporary sofas are very neutral. They might have a few stainless steel or wood accents, but usually they are just a plain color of fabric. They really do make a big impact in the room. This is perfect for smaller spaces. They also might not be as comfortable as more overstuffed pieces. However they do have a very chic city feel to them.
When picking this type of sofa you'll probably want to stick with either a white or black fabric. This will give a lot of contrast to the room. It can be feminine or masculine depending on how you style it. Plus, this type of fabric will really be durable and versatile. You'll be able to make it work with a lot of different design styles quite easily. You can always change out your color palette in the rest of the room. This makes it perfect if you are using a dramatic wall color because then your eye will have a place to rest.
Traditional and Elegant Sofas
A traditional sofa is something that will last for decades. It's great if you are only planning on buying furniture a few times or you want lasting pieces. This usually has a curved arm for a little bit of a shapely look. Then it can have overstuffed cushions that will be quite comfortable. If this is the sofa style for you then you want to make sure that you buy quality. You don't want the cushions to feel lumpy after a few years.
There are several different materials that you can go with four this kind of design style. Leather furniture is always a classic as long as you keep the colors and lines quite subtle. You can also find chenille, which might not be perfect for all lifestyles, but it can be very comfortable and soft as well as elegant. Another fabric option would be a basic cotton or twill in a taupe or tan color that you can use with all different kinds of design styles and color palettes.
This is the perfect style if you have a formal living room. This furniture doesn't have to be expensive or impractical. It's just a matter of finding something that will work for your lifestyle and budget that still has a little bit of a upscale feeling to it. This might require a little bit of shopping and you may even have to pay for used furniture. However, it can really be worth it in the end when you get that opulent feeling.
Common styles that work with this theme are French and Tuscan. These are both very elegant styles. In the French case you would want to find a piece with wood accents that are carved as well as a curved back. Usually it will have a patterned fabric. These sofas are formal, but they aren't always the most comfortable. For a Tuscan style you could go with a warm rich leather sofa that can either a brown or deep red.
