Different Types of Sofas to Make Your Den an Ideal Place to Relax and Unwind

A den can be many things: an entertainment center, a guest room, your own private sanctuary, or a combination of all three. Good sofas are the key to making the den a great place to relax and unwind.

While there are many types of couches available on the market, it's important to select one that suits the main purpose of the room. Here are the common types of sofas found in dens and a brief description of each: 

Love Seats
Designed to seat only two people, love seats work best for smaller rooms. They can be made of a variety of materials, and often offer the most diverse options in appearance. A love seat made of wood and upholstered with brocade is an elegant and practical furnishing for a den. Some love seats can be purchased individually, but some also come with a matching three-seater couch.

Recliners
These large pieces of furniture are a good choice for dens with a large amount of space, especially those intended for use as family rooms, as they extend and allow you to put your feet up on a built-in footrest. Recliners come in a large variety of sizes, and some even have built-in massagers or heaters.

Convertibles
Convertible couches provide you the option of turning your den into a guest bedroom, since they unfold and convert to a full-sized bed. Some types are designed to have the bed portion hidden away, while others simply readjust the seat cushions to lie flat, creating a mattress. Convertible sofas can be very large when unfolded, so be sure to take that into account when positioning it in your den.

By taking into account the space available in your den and the purpose the room will be used for, you can easily choose a sofa to fit your needs.
