When you are purchasing new furniture for your living room, it can be difficult to choose between a cozy sectional or a traditional sofa. Both options offer their benefits and look great in any space. You want to be sure you fall in love with the seating arrangement you purchase. Consider these three factors before deciding to go with a sectional or a sofa.
Space
If you have a large open space, you are not limited in your options. You can go with a sofa or sectional. With a sectional, you can divide the room up a bit to create different spaces within the living room. A sofa provides a traditional elegant feel and allows for plenty of walking space.
If you have a smaller space, you can still go with either option since both are available in various sizes. A sectional can help your space feel cozier whereas a sofa will help your room look bigger.
Use
If your seating arrangement for your family to kick back and relax, or will it be used for providing sparse seating during dinners and parties? If you want to create plenty of space for people to sit and feel at ease, a sectional is your better bet. A sofa can serve this need, but it does limit how many people can sit down.
Feel of the Room
Traditionally, a sectional creates a more relaxed atmosphere than a sofa. While both items are available in a range of sizes, colors, and styles, you need to consider how you want the room to feel before making a purchase.
Regardless of which option you choose, both seating arrangements provide optimal comfort after a long day of work. With Regency Furniture’s large selection of sectionals and sofas, you are sure to find one that matches your taste, space, and budget.
