One Seater Sofas

One-seater sofas can be part of a set with larger sofas that match the rest of the room or placed on their own as a design feature.

1-seater sofas are the perfect option for smaller spaces instead of a regular couch. They can also add a splash of contemporary colour and design elements or seamlessly blend into what you already have.

You have more options than just using your one-seater sofa chair in the living room. Adorn any area that needs a soft touch, like a reading nook or the spot in your living area that best catches the morning sun.

Where to Place a 1-Seater Sofa

Here are some stylish placement ideas to consider before you purchase your one-seater sofa. 

Trendy Living Room

As it is a single piece, you won't have to worry about adding unnecessary bulk to your living room or any space that requires extra seating.

With houses across the UK incorporating unique touches to their spaces, you could easily add modern single couches to a pre-existing lounge suite. Do so in matching tones or boldly add striking upholstery designs for a contemporary aesthetic.

Master Bedroom

Having an area in the bedroom dedicated to seating projects elegance and comfort. Easily create a space for a cosy morning coffee or somewhere by the bed to catch up on reading with a well-placed armchair.

Single-seat sofas come in dimensions that are small enough not to be obtrusive yet serve their purpose. Set it up to overlook the view from your window or in an open corner, receiving the most light for stunning camera shots. Elevate the areas further with a beautiful throw or cushion to make the place an additional oasis.

Home Study or Office

Each room in your house should reflect your flair, and your study should be no different. A work desk and office chair are essential, but armchairs that scream 'business' are a nice extra stylish touch.

Colours and design are your friends and opting for a more standard design or upholstery choice for your home office furniture would be the perfect option.

Choosing the Perfect Sofa Design for Your Living Space

Whether it's additional seating space for guests or that missing piece of furniture you're after, 1 seater sofas are a great addition to your living room.

Lounges have always been and will always be the centrepiece of houses worldwide. You should always choose a design that complements the flow of your house and adds a comfortable feeling.

There are some important things to note when deciding what style your modern single sofas will be. Consider the product quality and durability over trending designs, as these can be fleeting.

These are the 5 most important things you need to consider before buying a new 1 seater sofa:

Size

Our single-seater sofas online can range between 80cm and one meter in width. One-seat sofas can also have chair depths that vary. A bigger frame allows for a more relaxed feel than chairs you may have to squeeze into to get comfortable.

Ask yourself if you’re looking for a deeper seat and a high backrest area. Or do you prefer something with higher seats and would be easier to get in and out of? As for the armrest, are you looking for armrests that are the same height as the rest of your chair, or perhaps something lower for a more relaxed fit?

Many couches have legs and feet, which must be considered when deciding your ideal armchair size.

Shape

Nowadays, sofas and chairs come in all shapes and sizes, inviting you to sit down and enjoy their unique designs. Considering the shape when choosing a sofa will add to the aesthetics of your living room.

Single-seater sofas are often square-shaped, so they can be placed in several spots or corners. The lines of your sofa should enhance your space and complement the rest of your furniture and interior design aesthetic.

When choosing one seater sofas, consider the minor details of their shape. If the rest of the pieces in your sitting area have rounded and soft edges, opt for a sofa with the same look or create contrast with a sharper, more streamlined effect.

Material

There is a range of options available when choosing the best material for your personal sense of décor. Options for upholstered fabric include faux leather, linen, velvet, wool and more.

Your choice depends on the comfort and durability you require and your personal preference. Thick cotton might work well with children and pets in the house, whereas a luxury velvet-upholstered sofa may work better in an adult-only house.

We stock popular 1-seater sofas made with plush velvet fabric for an extravagant and elegant feel. Leather recliner options make cleaning easy while adding a sophisticated feel.

Style

Finding a sofa that fits the tone and feel of a room does not have to be daunting. A plain armchair tastefully fashioned with the right cushions can make a world of difference and create a relaxed or edgy look, depending on your desired expression.

Showcase your personality with gorgeous accessories. Adding patterns and textures through accessories such as throws and cushions shows individual aesthetics and comes in a vast range of styles to choose from.

You should also carefully consider whether your sofa's armrests and legs match or complement the rest of your furniture.

Colour

Knowing exactly which shade would suit your interior style can be more complicated than it seems. While your favourite colour may be black or turquoise, might not always be the most practical idea. Vibrant shades may clash with existing elements, and darker hues are not ideal for houses with light fur pets.

Neutral colours, like grey or beige, allow you to accessorise with bolder prints and patterns. This allows you to create a living area that suits the tastes of your entire family.

Bold and rich hues are the perfect option when making your sofa the focal point of your living area. The rest of the colour palette can then be made to follow the lead of this one piece of furniture that is meant to stand out from the rest.

Since a 1 seater sofa is rarely your main sofa, you can be as bold as you want.

Quality Products

The quality of the frame is all about a solid construction that can hold a good weight. The ideal sofa has a hard frame that is covered in quality plush fabric with extra padding to add that comfortable look and feel.

When looking for a sofa or recliner armchair, make sure to look for a quality frame that can stand the knocks that come with daily life. As for the fabric used, be sure to opt for something that would withstand daily wear and can be easily cleaned.

All of our 1-seater sofas are made to UK standard quality, and you can rest assured that even our PU leather is of the best in the upholstery market.

Measurements

While a single-seater sofa chair will not take up all of your free space, it is still important to get the dimensions right when you purchase one. Ensure you use a measuring tape before clicking on the 'order' button to carefully curate the perfect spot in your house.
