What to look for in apartment seating?

When choosing furniture for apartment or downsized living, it's all about finding pieces that maximise both comfort and space. Opt for a versatile reclining or stationary sofa, designed to provide premium relaxation without taking up too much room. Armchairs are a great addition, offering cosy seating with style, while complementing the rest of your décor. Whatever style you choose, make sure it reflects your unique taste.

Top tips: How to start your small-space seating search

Size matters

Before you dive into the world of recliners, accent chairs, or chic coffee tables, grab that tape measure! Make sure your new furniture fits like a glove in your space. Size is about how a piece relates to the room, while scale is how it stacks up against other furnishings. Nail this, and you’ll create a cosy vibe in any apartment!

Start the hunt at La-Z-Boy

Keep your eyes peeled for special deals and don’t shy away from heading into our showroom after you browse online. There’s nothing quite like sinking into those comfy cushions or testing the materials firsthand.

Kick off with a colour palette

Your small space has its own vibe, so channel your inner interior designer! Decide on two or three accent colours that pop and make those choices shine. Focus on your living room first and let your colour palette guide your furniture selections for a cohesive look.

Partner your furniture wisely

Once you’ve nailed your colour scheme, look for furniture that complements your style—be it classic, modern, or quirky.
