Mixed material sofas

4 years ago

I need 3 seater and 2 seater settees for my living room. My husband is keen on leather again but I think I fancy a change. To keep the peace I’m thinking of having one of each leather and fabric- possibly with a pattern? I’d love some advice and pics from people who may have done this.

Mixed sofas are very popular and as long as they blend together well you should be okay. I have 2 fabric sofas (one plain and one checked) and a dark brown leather wingback chair and they look fine together. Just be careful with a patterned sofa as they can be difficult to place. I’d go with plain and then jazz it up with cushions and a rug. Good luck!

I've designed a living room in this colour scheme using the same colour as the armchairs in an L-shape sofa and a 2 seater. Worked really well and the client was happy.

Hello comegetme.. the pics are really coming along.. I do feel the red is too prominent with the calmer colours in the room... I would personally try to find something that offers "red" but not quite in such a bold way.. Unless the rear wall was red too... I like the bottom version but the sofa and chair still stand out too much.. I think layering with throws is fine, maybe a beige and a colour that accents the walls of said bottom image.. .. Over 1 side to break up the brown is all you need to do.. Maybe a little table lamp in red too and you have the cushions.. Looking good! : ))

Mixing sofa colours is absolutely fine, in my opinion; I do agree that the magnolia walls may be a bit too bland, however if changing those isn't an option then you could tie everything together with cushions -- using the same ones on both sofas, in a number of different patterns/stripes/solids and brighter colours can work wonders.
