Here’s why living room furniture matters

The furniture you choose for your living room will have a massive impact on your overall satisfaction with the area. It must cater to all your décor, functionality, and lifespan requirements, as these aren't purchases you make every day. The better the pieces serve you, the longer they will last and the more satisfied you will be in the long run.

In some rooms, the furniture is only functional during certain times of the day, but your pieces get a near-constant workout in living rooms, especially if you have children. They should be exceptionally durable to withstand the activity level you will put them through, yet stylish enough to match your existing décor with ease. But let’s look at even more considerations.

In living rooms where windows are large and sunlight sweeps through the majority of the space regularly, you'll want pieces that are treated to withstand UV rays so that the upholstery does not break down. This is especially true for your couch, as it is often the centerpiece in the room. If treating your upholstery isn’t an option, we suggest window treatments that will deflect the light, especially in the middle of the day.

This room is often a gathering place for friends and family and can even be used to host slumber parties, birthday parties, and movie nights, so your furniture must meet these strenuous requirements. There’s nothing better than pieces you can pass down through generations, and the more thought you put into picking them, the longer they can last.
