Choosing the right piece of furniture for your home can be a daunting task. With so many styles, materials, and sizes to consider, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Whether you’re looking for the perfect sofa, dining table, or accent chair, finding a piece that suits your space, lifestyle, and aesthetic can make all the difference in how you experience your home. That’s where our expert tips come in—and if you want personalized guidance, our In-Home Design Service is here to help you make the best decision with ease.
One of the most important factors when buying furniture is understanding the size and layout of your space. Measure your room carefully and consider how the new piece will fit within it. You’ll want to ensure there’s enough room to move around comfortably, especially in high-traffic areas like living rooms and dining spaces.
Expert Tip: Use painter's tape to outline the dimensions of the furniture on your floor. This gives you a visual guide and helps you imagine how the piece will fit into the room. Our In-Home Design Service can also create a custom floor plan for you, ensuring every piece is perfectly proportioned to your space.
Your furniture should reflect your personal style while complementing the overall aesthetic of your home. Do you prefer a modern, minimalist look with clean lines and neutral tones, or are you drawn to more traditional pieces with intricate detailing and rich finishes? Think about how each piece fits within your existing decor and how it can enhance your space.
Expert Tip: Create a mood board with photos of furniture pieces you love and the style of your home. This will help you stay focused on a cohesive look. Our In-Home Design Service can assist by curating furniture options that align with your style preferences, ensuring a harmonious design throughout your home.
A beautiful piece of furniture should also be comfortable and functional. Consider how the piece will be used—will it be a daily-use item like a sofa or bed, or a statement piece like an accent chair? For daily-use items, comfort is key. Think about fabrics, cushioning, and ergonomic design to ensure you’ll enjoy using the piece for years to come.
Expert Tip: Always test out furniture in person when possible, whether that means sitting on a sofa or lying down on a bed. For those who prefer convenience, our In-Home Design Service brings samples and swatches directly to you, allowing you to experience the comfort and quality in your own home.
Furniture is an investment, so it’s important to choose pieces that are durable and will stand the test of time. Pay attention to the quality of materials, construction, and craftsmanship. Consider how your lifestyle might evolve—will you need versatile pieces that can adapt to changes, like modular seating or an extendable dining table?
Expert Tip: Look for furniture with timeless appeal and solid construction that will last through trends and wear. Our In-Home Design Service can guide you in selecting high-quality pieces that suit your needs and provide value for years to come.
Color and texture play a significant role in how a piece of furniture will feel in your space. Consider how the color of your new piece will work with your existing decor, wall colors, and flooring. Mixing textures, such as pairing a velvet sofa with a rustic wood coffee table, can add depth and interest to your room.
Expert Tip: Start with a neutral base and introduce pops of color through accent pieces or fabrics. Our In-Home Design Service offers personalized color consultations, helping you find the perfect palette and textures to create a harmonious and visually pleasing space.
