Top 8 Ultimate Furniture Choices for a Home

“The key to life was rearranging the furniture” Robert Ferro.

Furniture is the soul of a house and it must have a personality and be beautiful, and every woman will agree to this without a debate. Furniture is the most loved & Priceless asset in a home that is constantly looked-after by the owner and purchased after careful consideration depending on the type of house décor. A home without classy & fabulous furniture is like cake without a top-icing it will be just a dowdy place lacking the sophistication appeal that is much needed for a house interior. There are a couple of chic options for furniture décor that will help you furnish your home in a vibrant way and frankly my suggestion is to let the women take the lead when you decide to go for furniture shopping as they have a better aesthetic sense in this case.

A Bed to Last a Lifetime

Mostly 1/3 of the day is spending lazing on the bed so purchase a bed that is extremely comfortable, soft and affordable.  Buy a better quality bed even if it’s a tad expensive because it is a long-term investment for more than 10 years or so. Married couples prefer King-size Bed for more space whereas standard size Bed is for unmarried individuals. A bed is the prime point of attention in a “Bedroom” when somebody enters so check for proper size, firmness, surface, and low/high plank and comfort zone. It is always smart to choose a bed design that goes with the bedroom color themes, for instance, spring greens, tropical sense, clean mid-century design in different shades of grey or black & White, industrial Bedroom design with metallic furniture are trending high in 2018. Nightstands are essential with the bed and it is used for the purpose of placing things besides your bed, buy golden nightstands because they are a new rage this year adding a luxurious touch to a bedroom. Bedside lamps are OUT and consider hanging pendant lights near your bed as it will add an irresistible gothic appeal.

A Table to Eat On

Most dining tables are round or rectangular but the oblong design is most popular in 2018 that extends to more seats. Before you invest in a table you might get a plywood tabletop on top of a sturdy base and cover it with a decorative floor-length table tablecloth. Oval Dining table and mid-century modern design is a perfect fit for a dining room.

Classic Dining Chairs

Next to a plush bed and deluxe sofa set, dining chairs are an attractive feature in a home, so buy comfortable yet stylish chairs to add color to a room. Dining chairs must be comfortable enough for you to sit on them for long, for instance, wooden chairs although inexpensive but they are not very enjoyable while upholstered dining chairs are more snug and modern. You can put a slipcover over an upholstered chair to change the look for seasonal touches. Armchairs are luxurious and easily movable in the living area whenever you need extra seating.

An Ultimate Lounge Sofa Set

When it comes to sofa set in the living room, women are possessive about the quality, size, design, color and brand choice for it. The sofa set placed in TV Room is a critical decision because a bad move can ruin the whole look of the lounge room making rest of the expensive furnishing go unnoticed.  Sofas come in different shapes, fabrics, colors, and cost and don’t settle for anything less than a solid hardwood frame and 8-way hand-tied springs and attractive, durable fabric. The sofa set in fashion trend this year includes a U-shaped or L-shaped design with casual-backed sofas approach to give a homey and warm setting. Tight-backed sofas can also be selected as they require less maintenance. Normally neutral tones and earth colors are preferred in TV Room to remain uniformity such as ash grey, olive cream, and brown etc. are IN. You will have to make the choice for arm shape, skirt or no skirt, how many cushions, plain or patterned fabric down or synthetic cushions will best suit your room.

An Ottoman or Footstool

An ottoman is an upholstered stool either large or small that serves as a wonderful footstool and coffee table. Buy a pair of an ottoman and arrange them together and put a large tray on top and since you will be putting your feet on them choose a sturdy fabric or leather for the cover.

A Versatile Armoire

There is no furniture that can beat armoire, it is a piece of furniture where you need to organize your clothes, linen, store things or hide a television. It not only adds beauty but also storage in every room of the house.

Lighting & Lamps

It is good to add floor lamps or table lamps near the seating. Install dimmers on all wall switches in order to avoid harsh overhead lighting. Small lamps are nice for a pair of tables whereas wall-mounted lamps are great beside beds. Don’t crowd your room ceilings with lots of chandeliers; just fix them up in the TV room and Dining room only. Chandeliers add a dramatic finishing to a home and it gives a princely look to any room. Medium size chandeliers with perfect lighting i.e. not too sharpie are preferred and Sputnik, Stone & Beam Classic Four-Arm and Vintage style chandeliers are in hot demand these days.

A Chest of Drawers

A chest of drawers is useful in every room in a bathroom for linens, bedroom for clothes, living room for CD’s, books and office supplies. Select a piece that is fabulous and classic.
