Having a small space doesn’t mean you have to skimp on comfort. You simply need to be smart with the types of furniture you have in your space. And that’s as true with a sectional or sofa as it is with any other piece of furniture. The key is to look for a couple of qualities that optimize it for a small space.
- Find sofas for apartments
Believe it or not, there are actually sectional sofas designed specifically for small spaces. Basically, they are more streamlined designs that take popular designs but adapted for apartment living. Of course, they tend to be smaller and often fit two people comfortably. But if you put your mind to it, up to three people can fit! - Modular designs
One of the problems with small living rooms is that there may be small hallways and doors leading to them. This means that sometimes, even if a sectional sofa theoretically fits into your room based on its dimensions, it can be difficult or impossible to get it through doorways and into the room. One way to avoid or solve this problem is to choose a modular design sofa! A modular or sectional sofa comes in pieces that are designed to be easily assembled into your space. They also often allow you to rearrange the pieces as you wish as your needs change. - Sofa with storage
If you really want a large sectional, that sometimes means you won’t have room for much else in your space. This is perfectly fine, unless storage becomes an issue. To help avoid clutter in your small space, consider a sofa that does double duty and has interior storage! Some options have chaise lounges that open to reveal a hidden cubbie to store blankets, extra pillows, games, and more—whatever you want to keep out of sight!
