ASKING YOURSELF HOW TO CHOOSE A SOFA COLOR FOR YOUR LIVING ROOM? WE CAN HELP.

How to choose a sofa color for your living room? We understand your stress. When you invest in a sofa, you’re making a huge home decor decision. As your largest piece of furniture, the color of your sofa will largely determine future decor choices. From paint color to throw pillows, your couch has a very wide range of influence. And while neutrals are tried and true, you might find yourself hankering for something a little different.

MATCHY-MATCHY

Matching your sofa to your wall color is a good, safe choice. Of course, that thinking ties you to a specific wall color and sofa color… for a long time. Instead, try thinking of your wall or sofa colors as the beginning of a palette. What is the neutral that will best work for your color choices? If you love pinks, reds, and oranges, your best choice might be a soft camel tan. Tend towards dusky blues and sage greens? Look for a grey with similar tones. Instead of planning your room around a single piece, focus on the colors that you gravitate towards naturally, and collect pieces in that palette.

CONSIDER YOUR MATERIALS

Your lifestyle dictates the best material choice, but for this post let’s assume you’re a clean, functional adult who can take care of things. Quality leather is a timeless material. It ages well, cleans easily, and holds up to common household pests, such as dogs and children. It also manages to stay cool in the summer and get cozy in the winter. A leather sofa also allows for other textures to have play in your space without overwhelming. You can keep your space fresh and up-to-trend by adding funky throw pillows or a blanket, but rely on the solid goodness of a clean leather backdrop. Leather also tends to be available on that new neutral scale: deep chocolate browns, caramel tans, olive greens, and clay-reds. Of course, leather isn’t always the right choice for your lifestyle.

This year, as a continuation of this vision, Tuna Ofis has developed a creative business plan, starting from the fact that increasing employee productivity and happiness in office life affects the entire success of the office. Freedom@Work is the concept of the new collection that the company presents at the next edition of Orgatec. With this collection, Tuna Ofis tried to adopt a more flexible discipline to the work spaces.

Since almost 50 years Tuna Ofis is working to design office environment that increases the quality, creativity and ergonomy of the work spaces.

The Freedom@Work concept includes not just certain areas of the office but product designs that can transform all areas into a working space, even those outside the office. Everything around us is in constant interaction; people, eating spaces, break areas, meeting rooms, open areas. Tuna Ofis has designed products that have inspiring stories and allow people to work everywhere, at the same time, together as a piece of the whole, and in a state of interaction.

The new wool and felt rugs created by Belgian designer Charlotte Lancelot for GAN

With this proposal, however, Lancelot has gone even further with framed coloured areas that appear superimposed over one another. “The idea was to explore the technique’s possibilities,” explains the designer, who is particularly interested in bringing traditional craft to the present.

CANEVAS GEO is a warm and balanced composition, thanks to its wise combination of planes and colours. “The textures intermingle to create areas of different colour and density,” explains Lancelot. The effect achieved is reminiscent of the view of crop fields from an aerial perspective.

If you were to head up to the town of Heinola, in Central Finland, you’d discover that the answer is fewer than you think. You see, in spite of its position as a global lighting brand for discerning architects, Secto Design certainly keeps it real. Its busy factory employs just a couple of dozen craftspeople – home-grown, Finnish cabinet-makers every one of them.

Secto Design products never forget where they’re from.

Each and every piece that’s produced is authored, as it were. Initialled by the artisan who constructed it. Know this: it’s no easy task making a Secto lamp. Its formal reduction and simplicity belies its innovation, the latter requiring a great deal of know-how, patience and perfectionism. The diligence and passion of the team, however, means that they can nonetheless respond to even the largest of orders.

High-quality, PEFC-certified Finnish birch veneer is form-pressed into blanks, which are then cut into slats. These are sanded and finally connected using rings of aircraft plywood. The slats are then glued and nailed to the rings. A proud craftsperson’s signature may be one thing, but that doesn’t mean the lamps avoid a rigorous quality inspection before leaving the factory.
