When you think of a sofa, you often think of the living room. But there are so many other spaces and places in your home where you can create a cozy sitting area. And that doesn't necessarily have to be a powerhouse of a sofa. No, with modular sofas and many separate elements you can go in all directions. There is always a setup that suits your space. From a handy bench in the hallway to a nice seat in a home office: in this blog we share 5 inspiring ideas for extra sitting areas in your home.
sitting area in the playroom or children's room
Children also need comfort and like to have a place where they can relax or retreat with a book. Elements are also easy to detach. This allows you to use the elements for other purposes. How about building a fort? Add some pillows and blankets and voilà; we bet your kids will love this?!
The X6 – our deep lounge sofa – is the perfect addition to a seating area in the playroom or children’s room. We have furnished our own children’s room seating area with element 5 in #03 beige and footstool 1 in the cozy #10 teddy ecru ECO . Teddy fabric and children? That works better than you think. The polyester teddy fabric is easy to clean.
bench for the hallway
The hallway is a functional, but often unused space. Our solution? The hallway bench: the piece of furniture where functionality and design go together perfectly. Nice to take off your shoes without any hassle or to flop down after a long day before you enter the living room. With a nice design, it is immediately a good eye-catcher.
Setting up a sitting area in the home office
For some time now, (partial) working from home has been the new normal. If you have the space, a comfortable workspace at home is very nice. Think beyond the standard office furniture, such as a desk and office chair. With a few elements you can easily create a small sofa for your home office. Perfect for an informal online meeting or if you need a moment of rest between work.
The X2 – our extra spacious modular sofa – fits perfectly in your home office with its relaxed comfort. With element 2 and the semi-circular footstool 12 in #09 beige melange you create the perfect organic, small sofa.
what to do with an empty corner in your house?
It sounds like a luxury problem, but what can you do to fill that empty corner in your home? Create a cozy sitting area of course! Every empty corner can use some love and a round seating element is the match made in heaven for empty corners in your home. You can use this sitting area for a surprising number of purposes: from an extra sitting area for visitors to reading a book or to take a break from the rest. That will be a fight for the best spot in the house!
Element 13 of model X6 (in color #03 beige) has the perfect shape and size to place in a 90 degree corner. Add a side table and a nice coffee table book and your cozy corner is ready.
