What styles of 50s sofas are available?
Sofas from the 1950s have a classic, understated look that accentuates clean lines. They usually have minimal ornamentation but often feature a juxtaposition of materials, such as a wooden frame with cotton cushions or brass legs with velvet upholstery. 1950s sofas match well with furniture from the same mid-century period, such as Ercol chairs and G Plan sideboards. They work particularly well in minimalist rooms where the beauty of the design can be appreciated in an uncluttered environment.
How do I style a 1950s sofa in my home?
Although 1950s sofas were traditionally found in the main living space of a home, they work wonders in other rooms too. A 50s sofa in the bedroom adds a feeling of luxury and indulgence, giving more possibilities to what can otherwise be an underused space. If you want to add a real touch of elegance, a chaise longue will turn a humdrum sleeping space into a boudoir fit for a 1950s Hollywood star.
Love cooking but hate missing out on social time? Sofas are a great addition to the kitchen too and can even be used to build an original banquette. They provide a place for friends and family to relax and chat while dinner is prepared. The clean lines of 1950s sofas work beautifully with sleek, modernist kitchens, adding cosiness and interest as well as a comfy place to chill out.
