What is a U shape sectional sofa?
A U-shape sectional sofa is a large, spacious seating arrangement designed in the shape of the letter "U."
It typically consists of three connected sections: two long sides and a central, curved or straight middle section that connects them, forming a U-like shape.
Are there any dimension restrictions for U shape sectional sofas?
A U-shape sofa is ideal for spacious living rooms or open areas.
It generally needs at least 300cm in width and 200cm in depth.
How many people can sit on your U shape sectional sofa?
A U shape sofa can typically seat 6 to 8 people, depending on the size and configuration.
The two long sides of the sofa provide seating for several individuals, while the central section offers additional seating or space for lounging.
Larger U shape sofas with extended lengths can accommodate more people, making them a great choice for larger families or gatherings.

How to choose what fabric to use?
Choosing the right fabric for your sofa depends on various considerations:
- Texture considerations: boucle fabrics offers a distinctive textured surface whilst suede is soft to touch and provides a plush feel
- Washability: polyester blended fabrics or cotton blended fabrics are most ideal as they are typically machine washable
- Families with pets: Opt for scratch-resistant pet-friendly fabrics to withstand wear and tear from pets
- Ease of maintenance: Most fabric types we offer with the exception of suede fabric, can be treated for water resistance
What makes pet friendly fabric scratch resistant?
Pet-friendly fabric is designed with a tight weave, which enhances its durability against scratches and snags.
The effectiveness of scratch resistance is verified through snagging resistance tests conducted by testing agencies like SGS.
What is stain and water resistance treatment for fabrics?
Stain and water resistance treatment involves applying a coating that makes the fabric hydrophobic and oleophobic.
The treatment prevents water and oil substances from wetting the fabric, causing spills to bead up on the surface. This provides you with extra time to clear spills and prevent fabric staining.
However, the effectiveness of this treatment wears off over time and needs to be reapplied periodically to maintain optimal performance.
What is easy clean fabric?
Easy clean fabric is coated with nanoparticles that prevent dirt penetration.
This means dirt and stains remain on the surface and can be washed away with just water.
For non-water-soluble stains, such as grease, the application of soap together with water is required for effective cleaning.
What is the benefit of choosing white sofa?
White sofas bring a sense of purity, elegance, and spaciousness to any room. The colour white is associated with simplicity, cleanliness, and serenity, making it an ideal choice for creating a bright and airy atmosphere.
A white sofa can enhance natural light, making small spaces feel more open, while providing a timeless, sophisticated backdrop for any decor style.
What design styles work well with white?
White sofas are highly adaptable and complement a wide range of design styles, including:
- Minimalist: White sofas are perfect for minimalist interiors, where clean lines and simplicity are key.
- Modern: In modern spaces, white sofas create a sleek and polished look, especially when paired with bold accents or metallic finishes.
- Scandinavian: White is a core element of Scandinavian design, enhancing the feeling of light and warmth in the room.
- Coastal: White sofas fit beautifully in coastal-inspired interiors, evoking a fresh, breezy vibe.
What cushions work well with white sofas?
Cushions in neutral tones like grey, beige, or taupe offer a subtle, sophisticated contrast to a white sofa.
For a pop of colour, pastel tones such as blush pink, light blue, or mint green can add a soft, refreshing touch.
Bold hues like navy blue, emerald green, or mustard yellow can also bring a striking contrast, while metallic accents add a touch of luxury.
What rugs work well with white sofas?
Neutral rugs in shades of beige, cream, or light grey enhance the elegance of a white sofa.
Textured rugs such as shag, wool, or jute bring warmth and depth, while patterned rugs, including geometric or Moroccan designs, add interest without overpowering the space.
For a minimalist look, a monochromatic rug in white or off-white provides a seamless, cohesive style.
What wall colour work well with white sofas?
Soft, neutral wall colours like cream, beige, light grey, or taupe provide a warm and balanced backdrop for a white sofa.
For a more dramatic contrast, darker shades like charcoal or navy blue can create a bold statement.
Alternatively, soft pastels such as pale pink or light blue can add a gentle, calming effect while still maintaining the room's brightness.
