Retain High Minded Style with a Sofa for Small Spaces

1. If you live in a small apartment, have a small living room or any other kind of limited living space, it can be a challenge to find the right fit for a sofa to be the focal point of your room. Luckily, there are several options if you are on the lookout for couches for small spaces. Here are the different types of small-space furniture options you can choose from…

2. Loveseats usually are two-seaters --often with tufted upholstery -- that are ideal for those who don't have the living space for larger sectional sofas. For this reason, loveseats sometimes are referred to as apartment sofas. There are also settees, which are bench-style, one-seat cushion loveseats. You can find loveseats either with or without armrests. If you have a small apartment or small living room, a nice tufted loveseat could be the perfect option for you. A sectional sofa is exactly what it sounds like. Typically, sectional sofas have two or three "sections" that connect to make a whole sofa. A chaise can be placed on the side of a sectional and is used for putting your feet up while sitting. If a chaise isn't your thing, you can get a reclining sofa instead. Reversible sectionals allow you to change the side of the sectional the chaise is on as it is removable, not attached to the sofa. Sectionals can be a more difficult fit than a loveseat or some of the other options, but small sectionals can be a great choice for those dealing with smaller spaces. A sofa that reclines when the individual lowers the sofa's back and raises the front. Rather than using a chaise to rest one's feet, the occupant can simply extend the footrest. Modular sectional sofas come in individual pieces that can be put together to form a whole sofa. They are great for those with smaller spaces as they are fully customizable and can be assembled in any formation with as few or many pieces as you wish. Looking for a convertible sofa that can also be used as a bed? Do you often have guests staying over at your place? Then sleeper sofas may be for you. Sleeper sofas -- not to be confused with sofa beds -- are great for those who want an additional bed. Though while sleeper sofas typically are more comfortable, those with small spaces may be better suited using a smaller sofa bed.

3. Sofa beds are similar to sleeper sofas as both are convertible sofas that conveniently can be used as beds for comfortable sleeping. However, sofa beds are ideal for small spaces like a studio apartment or a small living room. Single sleepers may prefer a sofa bed while couples prefer sleeper sofas. Another convertible sofa option, futons are best for those dealing with small spaces and therefore most commonly used in small apartments. Futons are mattresses that can fold into a couch-like piece of furniture that has either a metal or wood frame. Whether you need small living room furniture, or maybe even something to put in your home office, a futon is an excellent choice. The Chesterfield sofa, named after the Earl of Chesterfield, is a rounded-arm sofa characterized by its Victorian style button tufting.
