For the first time, model corner sofas appeared in Italy in the mid-80s of the last century. Many buyers liked them for their originality and uniqueness. Many soft goods makers have started to produce such unusual models.

Modular corner sofas are in great demand today. Almost every manufacturer of upholstered furniture offers in its assortment several models of comfortable and practical sofas of the modular system.

Peculiarities

The modular corner sofa includes several sections. By design, it is very similar to a constructor. Modular sofas are characterized by the absence of a strict configuration, as well as rigid fixation of the sections.

Corner models can be used to design a variety of styles. They fit perfectly into the interior of the living room-kitchen, spacious halls.

The main advantages of modular corner sofas:

• the size of the product is completely individual. You can independently buy the required number of modules that fit perfectly into the dimensions of your room. Some models include about 60 sections. For a spacious living room, you can use a combination of 4 or 5 modules, which are ideal for a study, sleeping section and watching TV;
• the size of the protruding part can be adjusted. Usually it includes a roomy box for storing bedding and things, as well as a convenient cabinet;
• if desired, you can easily change the configuration of the model. To do this, it is enough to separate the ottoman from the entire structure;
• the corner module often contains a convenient shelf where you can mark out various little things;
• if necessary, all sofa modules can be securely connected to each other. This option is ideal for a home where there are small children, since they take the sections with great pleasure;
• some models have wide armrests that are used as a coffee table;
• characterized by lightness and simplicity of transformation, compactness and functionality;
• such a model is ideal for zoning spacious rooms, as well as for saving space;
• modern manufacturers offer a wide range of models, shapes, dimensions.

If we talk about the disadvantages of such sofas, then difficulties arise when choosing modules for small rooms.

Such models are not cheap, since manufacturers pay attention to the reliability of the design, which allows for numerous permutations.

Varieties

The modular corner sofa is distinguished by the originality of the structure, which allows it to be modified. Due to the variety of modules, the structure can be lengthened, additional elements can be installed, and the angle of placement can also be changed.

Modern upholstered furniture in a corner configuration is presented in two varieties:

• The sectional version includes the presence of different blocks that are interconnected. It will take some effort to separate the sections or swap them.
• The transformable model is characterized by the absence of rigid fixation of the sofa elements. With the help of special fasteners, you can easily replace any module, change the angle or disassemble the upholstered furniture into parts. In this case, some models can be used as independent elements.

In order to choose the right sectional model for a particular interior, it is necessary to pay attention not only not to the upholstery of the product, but also to take into account the dimensions of the back and armrests, as well as the depth of the seat.

Sectional upholstered furniture is characterized by its versatility, since it allows you to create various configurations depending on the wishes of the owners.

A transformable sofa can be selected for small rooms, but you should be extremely careful so as not to overload the interior of the room with unnecessary details. These sofas are ideal for a variety of contemporary styles such as minimalism, loft, modern or hi-tech.

Selection Tips

The modular corner sofa is ideal for decorating interiors in different styles. But you should be careful when choosing a model so that it fits harmoniously into the interior of the room.

The main criteria for choosing a modular corner sofa:

• the area of the room and the size of the modules - large sections muffle the presence of decorative elements;
• location - it is worth paying attention to the corner in which the sofa will be located, and also take into account which side will be elongated;
• quality and materials of the product - you should not buy cheap analogs of modular sofas, since they will very quickly lose their original appearance, and transforming elements may fail;
• with limited financial resources, it is worth purchasing the basic modules, and eventually supplementing them with additional ones;
• style purpose - models of upholstered furniture should harmoniously fit into the interior of the room.

Do not forget that the modular sofa can be used for sleeping thanks to the transformation mechanism. Unfolding should be quick and easy. The two-piece sofa section can be pulled out by pulling on the hinge.

It is worth paying attention to the internal filling of upholstered furniture. Many products include spring or springless units. Foam rubber, synthetic winterizer or synthetic fluff is used as a filler. Each material has advantages, but the main thing is an environmentally friendly filler.

When choosing a sofa, you should take into account which room it will be located in. For example, for a living room, you can choose a model in a bright color that looks more elegant. A soft corner for a children's room or bedroom should easily turn into a sleeping place. For the kitchen, it is worth purchasing practical and roomy modules.

If you choose the right modular corner sofa, it will delight you with its ergonomics and functionality.
