Sofa Strut (reclining related)

[CBear]

I keep my comfort and style separate, but both are necessary. Front room gets a modern couch a la this thread. Lounge gets a crazy comfy sectional.

I'm really partial to a classic, florence knoll

in grey fabric or cognac aniline leather.

Top one for sure. The arms on the second one are too low to be functional but high enough to be really annoying if you're sitting on the end of the sofa. I also prefer two larger cushions to three smaller ones and the subtly angled arms.

That one I posted is a Parker Knoll - strange coincidence in furniture names.

I like the top one too. Comfort is a huge factor though. An uncomfortable sofa sucks no matter how cool it looks.

Damn dude??? this is like George Jetson's pad.

Aser's pad really is that awesome. You should see the wine cellar!

Haha! Whoa!

Good way to put it....but I still like the second one more!


And leave it to Aser to put it in perspective...buttons work better with leather imo.





I like clean lines, but the first couch is a little severe for me. Not that it's the same thing as severe, but the first one is also the more 'masculine' of the two.


Funny, that the lack of arms on the second denote lack of comfort to some; the softer lines on the second one look more inviting to me.


Anyway - I am sure that house will look camera-ready when it's done! Make sure to show us.

Final decision went to:

Closing on house tomorrow afternoon.
