Summer for many is more than just a season – a state of mind
that is a time of both work and rest but in British climates it can come and go
so subtly that many of us don’t even realise its presence.
Luckily for us, this year, we have been lucky enough to
experience scorching temperatures, heat waves and even bank holiday barbecues, which
are a rare treat.
However, with recent weather changes and temperature
declines it seems that summer is coming to an abrupt close – just like that.
Now, here may be the time to take stock and gather your
thoughts on the next season to come – Autumn. For many a disappointing season, however,
at Kings we think this season provides the perfect opportunity to sit and watch
nature changing right before our eyes, all while sat in the comfort of your own
home.
From the exterior to the interior of your home, Autumn
preparations can not only bring richer and more earthy tones of colour but also
different styles and new furnishings to help you prepare your home for the
impending winter when you really will be cosying up in front of the TV and
fire, with a good book or loved ones.
Here, we take a look at some of the ways you can use your
living spaces practically, stylishly and comfortably this autumn.
Social and
entertaining
With the right kind of sofa choices you can make your home
into a comforting social space to entertain your guests over the cooler months
while remaining firmly indoors. You want something stylish to showcase your own
personality but also functional to fit your guests seating requirements.
As many of you will know, choosing the right type of fabric
or leather upholstery to cover your sofa is entirely down to your own tastes so
the options then fall down to the sizing requirements and shapes that you want
to suit your living room or entertainment space.
Here are 3 different
styles you may want to consider:
The Loose Cover Goodwood Sofa
With comforting plump cushions and curvy lines, this sofa
provides a traditionally functional role for your guests and is large enough to
provide plenty of room.
The Alstons Padstow sofa
Doubles as a sofa bed for those guests that will want to
stay the night and avoid the cooler temperatures. This sofa has classic lines
and shape to fit most interiors – available in a variety of fabric colours and
designs.
The Luxury Florence
Sofa
Termed luxury for its rich and fine upholstery this style of
sofa
has seat cushions which are hand stuffed with duck down and duck feathers for
maximum comfort for you and your guests – although whether you’ll want to share
the seating is another matter.
Cosy night in
Of course when the weather takes a turn for the worst, rain,
snow or winds start picking up speed you will want to avoid leaving your home.
This is the point where snuggling up in front of the fire with a good book or
television with a decent film will seem more attractive. But is your sofa as
inviting as you think or is it time for a new one?
While we all may want a deep and plump cushioned sofa that
has chunky lines to sink into, this isn’t always possible for all rooms. Your
choice of sofa or settee will all come down to the size and shape of your
living space so do bear measurements in mind.
Here are 3 different styles you may want to consider for
that cosy night in:
The Duresta International Emperor
With this sofa, you can fully customise your sofa to fit the
shape and size of room that you have. Modern and contemporary without
compromising on function, you can happily sink into the corners of this sofa –
all you have to worry is about the choice of upholstery. A Duresta sofa is an investment
for many years as it comes with renowned high levels of craftsmanship.
Contrast
upholstery Keats midi sofa
A high quality traditional shape of sofa
with a coil sprung base and feather down interior for maximum levels of comfort
and style. This midi sized sofa is also perfect for smaller living spaces or if
you just want a sofa to stretch out on and have all to yourself.
Parker and Farr sofa
If you want to keep all the luxury for your home then a
Parker and Farr sofa could be just what you’re looking for. Sofas of character
and showmanship promoting flair and style with stunning curves and a wide span
of upholstery styles, this sofa will be one you’ll learn to cherish not just
for the winter months but all year round.
At Kings Interiors, we know that furniture is an intimate
part of a person’s home and should not only suit a purpose but be an investment
that will also communicate the homeowner’s distinct style.
With all of our sofa styles, we provide a large variety of
upholstery fabrics and sofa designs for you to choose from because the furnishings
in your home are the most honest reflections of you.
