Which colour rural sofa suits you best?

Before we get started with specific colours, it might be smart to take a closer look at the rural living style as a whole. What materials and colours do we encounter there? If we list all the points, it will be easier for you to exactly choose the elements that make you happy.

 

When we look at the materials, it is striking that genuine primal materials such as oak, tree trunks, wool, linen and cotton are used. The latter materials are of course perfect for any accessories. The real wooden elements can be used, for example, in your coffee table, wall shelves or tv furniture.

 

The sofa is an ideal piece of furniture to reflect the rural colours. The most common colours within the country style are off-white, taupe and warm grey. But colours such as greyed blue, green and pink also find their way into the rural landscape.

 

But how do you choose the right colour for your rural sofa? It’s smart to take two factors into account. First of all, we advise you not to just look at the sofa itself, but at your living room as a whole. Choose a colour that matches the rest of your furniture and accessories well. This way you can be sure you maintain the balance. Also, carefully consider the lighting. Do you have a lot or little sunlight in your living room? With a lot of sunlight, a relatively dark colour can appear a lot lighter than you would initially think.

 

What is the best material for a country sofa?

In terms of material, you have an incredible number of options with a rural sofa if you mainly focus on the colour. The colour already reflects the rural character and that’s why you can consider many different options in terms of material. The best thing about the Table du Sud sofas is that all of them can be composed as desired. Think of the shape and colour, but also of the material.

 

You have the option of going for a leather sofa, but you can also choose from dozens of different fabrics. Each fabric has unique properties and if you match them with your colour there are a ton of possible combinations. It can be quite difficult to choose the right fabric.

Fortunately, there are two ways to make the right choice. For example, visit one of our furniture stores in
Heeze, Utrecht, Rotterdam, or Deventer. Our furniture store employees are ready for you with various fabric samples and appropriate advice. We also have a special materials chart on which we have collected our most popular fabrics.

 

Which furniture and accessories go well with rural sofas?

If you go for the total picture, it’s smart to take a close look at your living room as a whole. This offers the ultimate opportunity to harmonise everything nicely. When we look at the other furniture and accessories, we automatically come back to the used materials.

 

As mentioned, tree trunks and oak lend themselves well to coffee tables, occasional tables and sidetables. But don't forget your rug, for example. With a wool rug you can create some beautiful accents in your living room.

 

What size rural sofa do I need?

Use a tape measure and a piece of tape in your home to tape the perfect size on your floor. This way you’re already closer to your perfect size. Good to know: the images of our sofas merely give you an indication of what’s possible, like the tip of an iceberg. All our sofas are available in different sizes, colours and fabrics. In addition, we also have different shapes in store for you, such as corner sofas and U-shaped sofas. Tip: is the rural living style just not your thing? Check out our other living styles.
