Do you notice that your room is missing something? Do you dream of having a magazine room but do you see that it is still far from resembling one? Today we suggest you check the wall on which you support the sofa.
It is true that we are taking for granted that you have a sofa leaning on a wall. But we do it because it is one of its most logical locations considering that the sofa is one of the largest pieces of the room and that supporting it to a wall facilitates its distribution. Above all, if you have an elongated and narrow hall (one of the most popular in the plans of any promoter).
That we are not saying that it seems bad that the sofa is not leaning against the wall. In fact, if it has given you to open spaces and you have removed many walls to make a large living room with dining area with an open kitchen, the lack of walls can convert to the sofa in a key piece to zoning and separating spaces. Good proof of these new uses and distributions are the appearance, in recent times, of the curved sofas designed to occupy a central area, without being supported.
Going back to the sofas leaning against the wall. Just look at any of the beautiful houses published in magazines and publishers (in Decoesfera in our open doors section) to see that On the walls where the sofas are, things always happen.
It may be that there is a window (it is not the ideal distribution but sometimes there is no choice), a mirror, a painting or several or, at least, moldings. The thing is that something happens.

Tips to decorate the wall on which you rest the sofa.
- If you have a large piece such as a mirror or a large picture place it centered with respect to the sofa and remember that half of the frame should be approximately 160 of the eyes.

- A couple of vertical frames (50 x 70 cm) placed together and centered can serve. They can also serve sets of three or four smaller sheets.

- Yes the picture or the mirror is smaller or is a unique piece, Better place it on one side of the sofa, because if you place it centered on the sofa it will seem like lost.

- The same thing with you is not making holes in the wall. I know people who panic. Then at least, turn to painting and dare to paint the sofa wall a dark tone even better, just like the sofa.
- Likewise, in the absence of everything else, an XXL lamp on the sofa or a wall-mounted sculpture are resources that give movement to the space.

- It is important that you have as many colors and materials to place on the sofa. You can choose the same color range as in the rest of the room or use some color that contrasts with this color range and that attracts the eyes. In spaces of Nordic styles, black and white will give strength to gray and white tones.
