After you have gone through the initial planning, you need to select the best materials to fit the plan
Also, fabrics come in a variety of colors to match any interior.
- Light colors are prone to getting marks more quickly so if you have fallen in love with a pale-colored couch set, remember to look for removable, washable covers or at least make sure the upholstery is pre-treated to repel stains.
When thinking of easy to clean fabric, opt for cotton because any natural blends such as cotton-wool mix or cotton-linen will have to be cleaned professionally. Complex fabric blends tend to shrink in the wash, but you can always spot clean with upholstery detergent.
Leather
Leather couches bring a touch of luxe to your living room. If cared properly, they can last you as long as a fabric couch. It is a suitable option for homes with adult guests since there is minimal chance of spilling and stains. However, you need to consider that if leather is exposed to direct sunlight, it can result in a quicker aging process. There are four types of leather, which are considered top quality -- full grain, semi-aniline, top grain and nubuck.
