Select your sofa first.try to keep
it half the length of the wall it will be placed against.
This general rule-of-thumb will not work in a small
space.

Consider your wardrobe when selecting your sofa fabric.
Do you were mainly dresses or more suits? Do you want
a feminine floral or a masculine solid, stripe or textured
fabric?

You can use as many as four patterns in a room unless
you're the renown designer Mario Buatta.he uses a whole
lot more! The most important floral pattern should be
that of your sofa - it should be the largest pattern.
Smaller patterns in coordinating mini-florals, plaids
and checks or stripes will work well with other seating
selections or window treatments for the room.

Also, it is important to consider the weight
and color of the fabric in regards to the wear and tear
on a sofa or chair. Keep in mind what activities will
take place in the room.

You can choose a neutral colored, textured
fabric if you don't intend to purchase another sofa
for a long, long while. Then you can satisfy your love
for florals or geometrics with big accent pillows. It's
also nice to change accents with the change of the seasons!

Textures play an important role in enhancing the character
of a room. Mix chenilles, velvets and leathers to keep
the upholstery scheme interesting.
