Small loveseat/snuuggler for bay window

7 years ago

Can anyone recommend a loveseat/smuggler which is both shallow and not wide? It's to fit a shallow bay window within a small living room! Really an armchair would be better but we're desperate for soft seating as only have one 3 seater sofa in the whole house!

I like the look of this style best from sofa.com

But they are always way too deep!

So we've been looking at this instead:

Also sofa.com Fingal (72cm deep x 113 wide). Maybe in bright pink to liven it up! And because it's a dark uncosy room right now. This is smallest we've found but the arms are so high. I think the traditional style with lower arms would be more 'open' but no good when they are 130 wide x 107 deep!!

Also like antique style like this in a bright colour but don't know where to buy

Any suggestions for teeny seating much appreciated, thanks!!

Congratulations on getting such a beautiful first apartment. I'd definitely start with a sofa and 2 chairs, and NOT a loveseat! A lot of us houzzers are anti-loveseat. Two chairs offer so much more flexibility than a loveseat. I'd place the sofa on the wall opposite the fireplace. The two chairs would go in the window with a small table between them. You said you wanted a "big old sofa". I hope that was just a figure of speech as what I think you'd be far better off with is a sofa that is of a nice size, but not too big. I'd look for one with skinny arms so that you have more seating space which is what a sofa is for, after all! A sofa that is 84" long will fit in most homes nicely. Watch the depth of the sofa too as lots of them have gotten far too deep. I'd go 39" deep max. Remember that this is your first apartment, but not your last so stick with pieces that aren't too big. Pay attention to the size of the chairs also. I'd stay under 35" wide, and again with narrow arms. My recommendation would be solid fabrics for both the sofa and the chairs. You can have fun with pattern when you get around to a rug and pillows. You'll also need a coffee table, plus a table to go between the two chairs. I adore the faceted mirror table from West Elm below and would make it a must have. The coffee table below with the marble top is lovely as long as you don't spill red wine on it!

Hi Pannacotta, I think the etsy one may be unique rug store, they overdye vintage rugs. I really like the rug from westelm, will it be too modern though if you didn't like the JL striped one? What do you think of their Cadiz one? I can't decide if I like it! Try both of these links from ebay, you may like a couple, they're over budget if you go for the new size but under if you go for 2x3 http://stores.ebay.co.uk/rugmartoutlet/_i.html?_nkw=Faded+vintage+retro&rt=nc&_pgn=1&_ipg=48 http://stores.ebay.co.uk/rugmartoutlet/Modern-Patchwork-Rugs-/_i.html?_fsub=7903057012

I would put the large chesterfield facing the window (where the grey fabric chair is) and have the fabric chair at an angle in the bay (facing the fire place) with a table next to it. Move the TV from above the fireplace - I think a TV above such a lovely fire detracts from it. You could put it on the opposite wall where the small two seater leather chesterfield is. (Do you need to keep all three seats?) Put a table in front of the fire place so it brings the furniture together, making it a comfortable space rather than a waiting room feel. If you do keep the TV where it is (and keeping all chairs) I would situate the chairs closer around the fireplace as photo show above. And put a free standing unit on the small wall. Keep the wall colour light so the room is flooded with light. Look forward to seeing the end photos. Shannon

So, unfortunately I had some computer problems, so had to take photos of the screen, but how about something like this? Two 2 1/2 seat sofas and a loveseat (I used the Izzy from Sofa.com for size). A window seat in the bay window could be cute. And under the other window a play area for the little one(s). You could use the cupboard space next to the fireplace for wood storage or for shelves to display lovely items
