There’s no better time to slumber on the sofa. Perhaps you should upgrade?

The effect of an impeccably-designed sofa on an interior is not to be underestimated. Such a central piece deserves to have a good amount of thought behind it; after all, it’s where we put our feet up after a long day, watch our favourite show, read a book or ⁠— perhaps more often than we care to admit ⁠— have a cosy catnap. Functionality and exquisite craftsmanship are both front and centre within this selection of sofas and, importantly, they’re easy on the eye.
