Interior Tips: Guide To Buy Perfect Sectional For Your Space
“Luxury is more of a feeling rather than a physical thing. A living room can be very beautifully designed, but it will only feel luxurious when someone can enjoy the experience.”
Do you all get excited when buying furniture for your homes? I don’t know, when it comes to me I become obsessed with finding the right look, fabric, and color. I would visit numerous designers and their website to scour through the catalogs and find what I want.
You enter into someone’s living room and see their furniture and it evokes that pang of jealousy, more often wanting a better one in your own living room. Take, for instance, put a Mercedes next to a Suzuki and you would want that Mercedes in your driveway. It’s easy to notice the finer engineering, comfort and the class as compared to the economic options of day-to-day living. You are investing your time and money in playing around with the designers because they have a vision.
Against the traditional sofas, sectionals are worth considering having in your living room if you have large families or you regularly host parties, or let’s be honest, do we really need a reason to opt for luxury. Sectionals do scream luxury and sophistication, ranging from finer Italian leather ones to the chic linen ones or the royal velvet ones. On the top of it, sectionals are just versatile; they work in smaller spaces like study room or a man’s cave as well as medium to vast sized living rooms.
You should read on to discover everything you can know about sectionals and why they are an epitome of luxury as well as functionality. This is a key to understand various types of sectionals as well as the platform to flaunt how our international designers are using sectionals all over the world.
Sectionals are perfect for the amount of seating and are perfect for lounging and putting your feet up. Depending on their size, sectionals can offer room for several more people than the conventional sofa does. There is a misconception that sectionals are only for large rooms but sectionals can help in maximizing the seating options even in smaller spaces.
Let’s understand the terms associated with the sectionals before scouring further:
L Shaped Sofas
These usually come in three or five pieces. The L-shape design is the most versatile of sectionals, working well wedged into a corner or floating in the middle of a room. Jankhaled Mahallati is the founder and CEO of Mahallati Interior and he has used this beautiful L shaped sectional to emphasize the space by preferring the low seating in one of his project Redoor at Canggu- Bali, Indonesia.
U shaped Sofas
These ones wrap around in the shape of U. If you have a huge space to fill or if you just want to get as much seating out of your sectional then U-shaped style is for you. It is perfect for nurturing the growing families or best to start your families at with its extended arms. McGuire’s from California have an innate sense of Californian living that is shown even in their products. This sectional is for the people who want to capture the essence of casual luxury and unpretentious royalty.

Stationary vs. Modular
Most sectionals come in multiple pieces that are meant to be stationary and are designed for one configuration only. Modular sectionals can be arranged in different ways to suit your changing needs. McGuire from California has this amazing stationary sectional appropriate for the eco-friendly people or who don’t like heavy furniture in their homes.

Chaise
The chaise sectional is essentially a sofa with an extended ottoman attached to one side. Think of it as the simplified cousin of the L-shape style that can go just about anywhere a conventional sofa might go.

Curved
The curved sectional brings the sculptural appeal to space, acting almost as a piece of art with its elegant silhouette. Keep in mind, it’s not your best bet when it comes to small spaces: Because it doesn’t sit flush against a wall, you’ll have to position it farther out into the room. Ashley Furniture, number one retailer in The USA and my personal favorite have these amazing sectionals that would be perfect for any larger living room.
Sleeper
Imagine the ever-functional sectional can get even more functional, making more room not only for sitting but for sleeping too.
