Mid-Century Sofas

Mid-Century Sofas for a Clean Silhouette

Get retro with a bold mid-century sofa in your living room, family room or basement. Traditionally, these sofa frames sit high with angled arms and deep seats, giving them old-school appeal with the comfort and quality of modern sofa design. Look for sofas upholstered in neutral tones such as off-white, beige and light grey for a blank canvas you can update seasonally. Add vivid floral-patterned throw pillows to the couch in the spring and summer, swapping them out for brick red, olive green and moody navy in the winter months. Alternatively, create your own mid-century sofa with our custom upholstery planner. Design a couch that fits your style and space—choose a frame, then select a color or patterned fabric you love. Finally, pick a leg finish, and keep in mind that mid-century sofas often feature exposed legs. After deciding on a sofa style, consider how your decor can highlight the unique details of the couch. Your sofas’ clean silhouette and exposed legs allow you to see beneath or past the piece: stay within this theme by arranging minimalist lamps and vases on a glass coffee or accent table. For example, hang a round mirror on the wall above a button tufted sofa to subtly accentuate the circular motif of the buttons. Look for mirrors framed in metallic brass for extra flair.
