While of course we at 5th Avenue Furniture think our living
room sofa and loveseat selection is numero uno, just maybe you want
something radical for your space. Sometimes it’s a matter of limited square
footage. Or maybe you’re just an artistic iconoclast, being contrary as a way
of life. Perhaps you DON’T want a sofa or loveseat just because everybody else
has them! You know what? That’s okay. And you won’t have to sit cross-legged or
lie on the area rug if you don’t want
to. Here are some cool suggestions for your unusual, sofa-less living room.
Living Room Bench and Chair Combos
Maybe flexibility is what you’re looking for in a living
room so sofas aren’t for you. No problem. A few strategically placed, funky-design
living room benches and plush chairs
of any size are comfortable and fun to rearrange for a party or to gather
around the big-screen TV for movie night.
Chairs Plus Ottoman Equal Chic
Another design tip is to gather a few accent chairs around
an oversize ottoman for some me time with
your laptop and morning coffee or small-group conversational space that’s not
intimidating. Sit a spell, put your feet up, have a drink, and enjoy!
A Living Room Daybed!
If you’re really keen on economizing your floor space in
style, and a living room futon is too
college-ish for your taste, never fear. A smartly designed daybed may be just
the thing, particularly if you live in a studio apartment. Your room will look
well put together rather than improvised. Throw in a trundle bed and you can
even put up a friend overnight without springing for a sleeper sofa. A living
room daybed may seem to be cheating on the no-sofa challenge here but technically
it’s not a sofa so we’re good.
