Top 5 characteristics to prove the beauty of a contemporary sofa
A contemporary furnishing style refers to current trends, as opposed to a more traditional design with an old-time charm, although timeless and widely appreciated.
In order to understand the factors that distinguish a contemporary aesthetic from a classic style - in this case referred to sofas and couches - here are the main features of this look:
- Classy and dynamic design
- Simple and clean lines
- Comfortable seats and sofas, with bold outlines
- Sturdy natural materials and fine fabrics
- Neutral colour palette and strong hues
Let’s go over each point in detail.
1. Classy and dynamic design
Comfort and style : this is the technical-aesthetic duo reflected by contemporary interior design.
What makes a contemporary sofa fascinating and comfortable is its elegant and dynamic design.
This ambivalence is aimed at improving the sofa’s comfort, and, at the same time, making it an element with a great decorative potential, to complete the living room layout.
2. Simple and clean lines
Contemporary design in seats and sofas requiressimple and clean lines, focused on their comfort and aesthetics.
Contemporary homes are often minimal: the furniture looks light, agile and visually captivating, while maintaining a modest and serious appearance.
3. Comfortable seats and sofas, with bold outlines
Contemporary seats and sofas feature bare rectangular/square shapes, and a simple profile, outlined by bold and square profiles, mixed with soft curves, to ensure the maximum comfort.
This kind of sofa is generally characterized by a raised base with metal or golden finish legs - depending on the end costumer’s taste - without any decorative excess.
4. Sturdy natural materials and fine fabrics
Contemporary seats are often made with strong and long-lasting materials (for the frame), and customized with precious details and alluring upholstering.
Specifically, they feature golden or silver buttons on the vertical seam lines, diamond-pattern or button-tufted upholstering (with a great classic appeal reinterpreted in a contemporary fashion) and fine fabrics with different colours and patterns, such as:
Velvet
Smooth and soothing fabric to encompass all your senses. Apart from making the seat look richer and finer, it is eye-catching, thanks to its iridescent reflections and intense hues.
Wool and linen
Natural materials that make the seats look serious and elegant, as well as light and warm.
Cotton
Natural high-quality fabric, fresh and soft to the touch. The most prized is the Sea Island cotton, with long silky fibres, used in the finer workmanship.
Available in solid colours and patterns, cotton is stylistically versatile, elegant and essential.
Satin

Available both in solid colours and with fine patterns and embroideries, it is ideal for any interior design concept: from classic style to contemporary interiors.
