However, when faced with the dazzling array of sofa brands, styles, and materials on the market, do you feel confused and at a loss? Don't worry, this article will provide you with some tips and suggestions for choosing a sofa, making it easy for you to find the sofa you like.

1、 Determine the size of the sofa

The size of the sofa should be selected according to the living room space, neither too big nor too small. Too much space will be occupied, affecting the transparency and functionality of the living room; Being too small can make the living room appear empty and lacking in warmth.

Generally speaking, a sofa occupying about 1/4 of the living room area is more suitable. If you have a decoration designer, you can choose according to their advice; If not, you can refer to the following formula:

Background wall: Sofa size=4:3

This formula means that if your background wall length is 4 meters, then your sofa length should be around 3 meters. Of course, this formula is only a reference and needs to be adjusted according to the shape and layout of your living room.

In addition to the length of the sofa, attention should also be paid to the following two dimensions:

Seat cushion depth: For households with a height of 1.7 meters or more, choose a depth of 105 centimeters; There are no people over 1.7 meters tall, choosing 95 centimeters is the most comfortable;

Seat cushion height: Ensure that when sitting on the sofa, the knees and buttocks are in a straight line, and the height varies, generally between 40-45 centimeters.
