Help with Sofa for Bedroom

5 years ago

I have an empty wall in my bedroom that I am trying to decorate. This is the last part of the room that needs finishing.
I think I have space for a small sofa and I've taped it out. It seems like it would fit but I'd like to get some input. The sofa I'm looking at is 60 wide and 30 deep. I saw it in store in a light beige but it is also available in a off-white boucle fabric.
I'm attaching photos of my room. I've photoshopped the mirror and artwork that I have already ordered. Table lamps are on their way too. Most of these items are contemporary as my furniture was leaning too traditional for me.
Please let me know what you think of the sofa. I think it's so cute, I love the round design.

    I wanted to add a profile photo of the sofa. It's 30 deep but the sides are actually less deep.

    If you love the sofa, why not? Maybe give it a pillow and a throw?


    I have in my files a similar sofa, but I don’t know how it compares in price and measurements

    Agree -- why not? Although, usually when I've seen chairs or loveseats/sofas in bedrooms, they're located to take advantage of the view out the window or for sitting in front of a TV or fireplace or set up as a reading area (with table and sidelamp), not really just next to the wall without a purpose. But hey -- it's your bedroom and if you really want it go for it!

    I like the sofa too. Very cute!! What materials do they come in?
    What are the options.
    It looks like it might be a tight squeeze on that wall. I might put the dresser there instead.
    And the sofa on the dresser wall.
    Or maybe at the foot of the bed.

    Instead of art. Would you consider wallpapering the walls? I think it would add so much depth to the space.

    Is it a weird spot to place a sofa? Originally I was planning for an occasional chair in the corner with a large leaning mirror perpendicular to the bed. I've attached a photo of the chair I had in mind. However, I had a hard time finding a mirror that I liked (within my budget) and opted for a mirror over the dresser instead. Would a chair in the corner and an end table be better? I have a lot of artwork that I will probably hang as a gallery on the wall. Would that work?

    I like the sofa better for sure

    I think the sofa will look cramped on that wall next to the bed. If you want the sofa, does it fit at the end of your bed? I'd use a chair instead. It can sit more in the corner and give you more space along the wall, while still functioning the same way. You don't need to fill every bit of floor space. Some artwork on the wall above it is all you need.

    IMO you do not have room fro this piece. Post a to scale floor plan of your room if you really want help. If you love it maybe a the foot of the bed

    Thank you Patricia and Calidesign. I am doubting I have the space too. I am now considering an occasional chair in the corner instead. My only challenge is filling the wall space above. I don't want it to look too bare.

    Would you have room for a narrow chaise?


    Not suggesting these in particular but more to indicate a possible set up for that wall


    a chaise

    A plant stand at the foot of the chaise with a substantial plant with height

    Is this a better set up? Maybe add a small drink table by the chair and artwork above. The current chair will go to another room and I'm thinking of this occasional chair in it's place.

    Yes, that looks perfect. Functional, without crowding the room so you keep your serene vibe. Once you have some art on the wall the space will be wonderful!
