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 brown sofa?
Brown sofas bring warmth and a sense of comfort to any room. The colour brown is often associated with stability, reliability, and earthy tones that create a cosy and welcoming atmosphere.
Depending on the shade, brown can evoke a rustic charm or a refined elegance, making it a versatile choice that complements various interior styles.
What design styles work well with brown?
Brown sofas are highly versatile and can fit seamlessly into a range of design styles, including:
- Rustic: Brown enhances the natural, earthy feel of rustic spaces, particularly when paired with wooden furniture.
- Traditional: Rich shades of brown are perfect for creating a classic, timeless look in more traditional interiors.
- Modern: Darker brown sofas can act as a grounding focal point in modern interiors, particularly when combined with sleek lines and contemporary accents.
- Eclectic: Brown can work with a mix of patterns and textures, adding warmth to an eclectic setting.
What cushions work well with brown sofas?
Cushions in warm neutrals such as cream, beige, or soft grey complement brown sofas beautifully.
For more vibrant options, burnt orange, mustard yellow, or deep green can add depth and warmth.
Gold or bronze accents can elevate the look, while darker shades of brown or burgundy offer a harmonious, earthy palette.
What rugs work well with brown sofas?
Neutral rugs in cream, beige, or light grey can balance the richness of a brown sofa.
For added texture, a patterned rug with brown elements or geometric designs can enhance the overall aesthetic.
Plush, shaggy rugs in complementary tones can create a cosy atmosphere, while natural fibre rugs, such as jute or sisal, can further emphasise a rustic vibe.
What wall colour work well with brown sofas?
Neutral walls in shades of soft white, cream, or light grey allow a brown sofa to stand out without overpowering the room.
For a more dramatic look, deeper tones like olive green, rich burgundy, or charcoal grey create a striking contrast.
Warm beige or taupe walls can also provide a harmonious, earthy backdrop.
