7 Curvy Couches to Round Out Your Living Room

Curvy couches are everywhere for a reason: they perfectly express the trend towards more relaxed, freewheeling design. Following years of very buttoned up, relatively monochromatic design, we are embracing the idea of more playful looks. The idea of “wabi-sabi” design is that, roughly, things look sort of thrown together into a happy accident of beauty and harmony. Curved and rounded shapes – like circular coffee tables – free up the lines of a room to break out of a grid. The sofa is usually the largest item in a room, so a sofa with some curves can really change up your look.
