Life at home can be wonderfully busy — children, pets, visitors, cups of tea, and the odd little spill along the way. That’s why choosing the right sofa fabric can make such a difference.
For everyday family living, it’s worth looking at fabrics that are soft, comfortable and practical too.
Here are a few examples we've gathered to help you find the right one.
Microfibre or brushed polyester can be a great choice, as they feel lovely and are often easier to care for.
Chenille is another popular option, with its warm, cosy texture and hard-wearing feel. It's luxuriously soft, tufted fabric and yarn named after the French word for "caterpillar"
Woven polyester blends are ideal for everyday use, giving you plenty of choice in colours and styles.
And for homes where life really does happen, easy-clean or stain-resistant fabrics can offer a little extra peace of mind. Celebrity Motion Furniture Ltd. have a great choice of Aqua Clean fabrics for every day life stains.
The best sofa isn’t just the one that looks good in the showroom — it’s the one that feels right at home with you.
At Davies & Davies Furniture, we’re always happy to help you find a sofa that suits your home, your family and the way you live.
