How to Choose the Right Size of a Modern Sofa for Your Living Room?
-Seat Capacity: Determine how many people you want the sofa to accommodate comfortably. This will help you decide on the appropriate size, such as a two-seater, three-seater, or sectional configuration.
-For the Depth: Consider your personal preference and how you plan to use the sofa. For average depth, aim for around 36-40 inches (91-102 cm). The deep seated sofa has a depth greater than 40”.
-For the Height: Measure from the floor to the top of the seat cushion to determine the seat height. Most standard sofas have a seat height of around 18-20 inches (46-51 cm), but this can vary. Choose a seat height that is comfortable for you and your family members.
-For the Length: Consider the proportions of your living room and other furniture pieces. As a general guideline, allow for a sofa that is around two-thirds the length of the longest wall in the room. This helps create balance and visual harmony.

What's the Difference Between a Sofa and a Couch?
Essentially they are the same thing, with 'couch' being a more popular term in the United States. It comes from the French word 'coucher', which means 'to sleep'.
'Sofa' is a more popular term in British English, most commonly used in the United Kingdom and India. The origion of the word is thought to come from the Arabic word 'soffah', a raised part of the floor for sitting and covered with cushions and carpets.
