Just as the pandemic led to a renaissance of slouchy loungewear, people now want their homes to feel as comfortable and cozy as their stretchy outfits of choice, and that’s why curved furniture is on top right now. Our brains are inherently drawn to circular forms and curved lines, which are associated with safety and calm. After a stressful couple of years spent mostly at home, it’s no surprise that people are seeking out comfort in their furniture choices. Curved furniture was recently called out as a top design trend, and rounded corners, soft edges, and arched shapes are popping up at furniture retailers ranging from high-end luxury to budget brands. How to incorporate a curved sofa into your living room? Let’s find it out!
Enhance Natural Colors
Enhance the calming qualities of curved sofas with colors that feel equally soothing. Look to nature for inspiration, and bring in hues reminiscent of the earth, forest, or sky. Apply these colors through the furniture itself, or establish a serene backdrop with walls, window treatments, flooring, and more in tranquil tones.

Prefer Natural Textures
Curved forms appear often in nature, so borrowing other elements from the outdoors is a natural way to round out this trend. Incorporate organic texture with furniture and accessories made from materials such as wood, stone, and natural fibers. Combine various rugged, smooth, nubby, and soft textures to re-create the balance found in the natural world. Get inspired by the ideas we’ve gathered!
