Furniture Design Dilemma

Two couches or couch and loveseat

5 years ago

Instead of going with a sectional, I want to get either two couches or a couch and a loveseat. The room is quite large and open, so I am thinking two couches because I have the room. I would probably L them, instead of putting them across from each other. Design wise, will it look ok to have two couches? Or should I go with a couch and loveseat?

Always choose 2 couches over couch/loveseat combo or sectional. Much easier to work with in various room layouts and better seating for guests.
