Tips for combining sofa and armchair

For the choice of color, both of the decoration and that which will go on the walls, it is vital to think carefully what is the best choice for the room.
Regarding a living room with a sofa and two armchairs, our extensive experience makes us have different recommendations, so you can find the perfect chromatic balance that fits with the personality you want to give to the room. A fundamental and basic point is to use the same color for the sofa and the armchair, if you are looking to create a relaxed space. On the contrary, you can choose to create contrast with opposite colors in the chromatic circle and give more personality to the room.
Textures and patterns for each element
The texture or prints that we should choose, to combine the sofa and the armchair with the rest of the decoration, is another important point to create the best harmony within our room. To combine these two factors there are two options; opt for a mix of textures following the same pattern or combine plain elements with a pattern. These textures can be applied in decorative cushions, tablecloths, curtains, paintings, etc.
