Thanks to the variety of styles and design solutions, you can add personality to any room. The classic style will emphasize the conservative views of the owners. High-tech is chosen by modern people who follow new products, but are unpretentious in everyday life. The idea of making a semicircular sofa the center of the living room fits into the concept of a creative person. Such furniture attracts attention, and the unusual interior will be remembered by guests for a long time.
Accommodation
The issue of sofa placement is the main issue that cannot be delayed. Before purchasing a semicircular product, the first question that arises is where to place it. The location should be convenient and functional. There are many options. Free space is of great importance. In a small room, a semicircular sofa is unlikely to be appropriate. And in a spacious apartment, a semicircular sofa will be a godsend. The location in the center of the room guarantees an attractive layout and zoning of the room. With it you can easily divide the living room into parts. There is an option to place two semicircular sofas opposite each other. This will create a cozy corner for communication; this space will become a favorite place for evenings and meetings with friends. Opposite the sofa there is the opportunity to place one or two armchairs. This will add the number of seats and create a separate recreation area for household members and guests. If you have limited space, place the sofa in the corner. This will save space and look presentable. There is a good feature about the location of a round sofa: if the sofa is placed against the wall, then behind it there will be free space in which either a floor lamp or a color composition can be placed. It is advisable to place a TV in front of the sofa, which promotes family relaxation. An original solution would be to install a fireplace opposite the sofa. A fireplace increases the level of comfort and coziness in the room. If your apartment has curved walls in its layout, then the choice of place for a corner sofa is obvious. Lay a plain or unusually colored rug in front of the sofa. It can be a small carpet or a large carpet. It will easily elevate the look of your living room. A coffee table, which you will need, will help complement the space next to the sofa. Place a vase of flowers or a laptop on it.
Product Features and Benefits
Radius sofas are semicircular furniture with a seating area curved in an arc. They are often supplemented with original armrests or functional niche bars. The shape of the backs and legs is limited only by the imagination of the designers. The rounding angle may be barely noticeable. But there are structures curved almost 180 degrees.
An unusual furniture solution not only attracts attention. According to psychologists, curved lines give a feeling of peace and tranquility. Rounded corners are more easily perceived by the brain at the subconscious level. The shape is not only harmonious, but also more natural.
A semicircular sofa creates a cozy atmosphere. Round furniture fits well into the space, gives the interior a delicate charm, and adds airy lightness to it. Even the simplest sofa can make the design of a room exclusive.
The disadvantage of radius upholstered furniture is that it requires space. You can find a solution by choosing a modular model. Its dimensions can be easily adjusted to fit a spacious living room of a country house and a small kitchen of a typical high-rise building.
Another drawback is the high price. These sofas are at the peak of popularity today. In addition, they require high costs from manufacturers. Both factors affect the final cost, preventing it from remaining in the economy segment.
Semicircle sofas easily turn into a sleeping place. To do this, it is enough to swap the design modules. Monolithic models are equipped with transformation mechanisms. But you most likely will not be able to find bed linen of a suitable shape. Round and oval sheets and decorative capes will have to be ordered.
Upholstery:
• Textiles • Leather • Leatherette

Materials used
When making the frames of round sofa beds, metal is most often used. The metal structure can withstand the heavy weight of heavy massive furniture, but transporting it will be extremely difficult. Models with slatted bases are made using wooden slats, but sometimes there are variations with metal slats (such beds, as a rule, are not equipped with a folding mechanism). In addition, furniture manufacturers occasionally produce premium collections made of solid wood, as well as models with a frame made of laminated furniture board.
Filler
The soft elements of the sofa (its seat, back, armrests) are made using a special filler - synthetic batting, of different thicknesses and densities (usually in the range of 200-400 g/m2). It, in turn, is made from cotton, linen or wool. Sometimes manufacturers use this material as a filler for a sleeping place, and the remaining components are filled with synthetic padding or polyurethane foam.

Upholstery
The upholstery material is:
- Textile. If the sofa bed is mainly intended for relaxing and sleeping, then this is the best option. Furniture with textile upholstery looks stylish, and its surface is very pleasant to the touch.
- Leather. Such sofas look noble and very presentable, but this material is rarely used as upholstery material for a bed. Firstly, genuine leather requires constant care. Secondly, lying on such a sofa without bed linen will be extremely uncomfortable (its surface seems sticky in summer, and too cold in winter).
- Leatherette. This is a good alternative to genuine leather, thanks to which the cost of a furniture product is set at a lower level. However, such a sofa is again not suitable for constant sleep. It is best to put it in the kitchen and use it as an additional sleeping place (for example, for guests).
The best upholstery for a sofa bed is high quality tapestry, jacquard or velor.
Leather or textiles?
Most round sofas belong to elite class furniture, and very high-quality textiles or leather are used for their upholstery. Kazha can be not only real. Modern polymers that copy it are not similar to the familiar “dermantine”: they are breathable, reliable, with a natural texture, and it is not very easy to distinguish them from a natural material. This kind of material is sometimes called “ecological leather”.
Elite-class textiles include materials made from natural and synthetic-based fabrics of difficult weaving with multi-color patterns: jacquards, tapestries. Unlike leather, fabric better withstands the effects of sharp objects (for example, the claws of a four-legged pet), is not prone to stretching, and is repairable.
The positive qualities of leather are its resistance to wear and durability. But the main quality for which sofas with leather upholstery are selected is their strikingly representative appearance. They not only set the style of a living space, but take it to a new level!
Bed dimensions
When choosing a suitable round sofa bed, you need to pay attention to the following dimensional parameters:
- bed diameter;
- length and depth of the sofa when folded (if there is a folding mechanism);
- bed height;
- backrest height (if available).
Even the smallest model will be quite massive and large. Its diameter must be at least 2 meters so that two people can sleep comfortably on the bed. The optimal size of a sleeping place varies from 2.5 to 2.7 m, but owners of spacious bedrooms can afford all 3 m.
When folded, the length of the sofa will be, accordingly, equal to the diameter of the bed - from 2 to 3 meters. The depth of its seat at the widest point should be about 70–100 cm. As for the narrowest part, it is about 50 cm.
Advantages and main features of sofa beds, design options
The lowest sofa beds are models from children's collections. Their height is usually 60–70 cm. For adults, this figure should be at least 70–80 cm. Variations in height of about 1 meter are allowed. As a rule, such beds additionally have a pull-out linen drawer underneath.
The height of the back of a round sofa bed can vary from a minimum of 50–70 cm to 1 meter or more. It all depends on what role she plays. If the bed does not have a folding mechanism, then the headboard does not have to be high. If the backrest reclines and forms one of the soft elements of the sleeping place, then it can easily reach 100 cm or more.
