Not sure what type of sectional sofa fits your lifestyle and layout? Don’t worry; we’ve got you covered. Read on for tips and inspiration to help you find the right fit.

Things to Consider When Choosing a Sectional Sofa

Before selecting a sectional, it’s important to think about how you’ll use it—and how it will sit in your room. From sizing to comfort preferences, these core considerations will help guide your choice.

Size

Measure your space carefully. The best sectionals feel generous without overwhelming the room. Small sectional sofas are ideal for compact living areas or corner seating groups. Large sectional sofas shine in open floor plans where they can help define zones and offer plenty of seating.

Fabric

Upholstery matters—both for durability and design. A modern sectional sofa in performance fabric can stand up to daily use and messes, while velvet or leather adds rich texture and luxe appeal. Consider how your sectional couch will be used day-to-day, and pick a fabric that suits the space.

Seat Depth

Do you prefer an upright sit or a lounge-all-day feel? Standard seat depths offer support and a clean silhouette, while deep sectional sofas like our Felton Corner Sectional Sofa create a relaxed, sink-in spot for unwinding. If the room is more formal or space is tight, a shallow seat depth may work better. 

Types of Sectional Sofa Configurations

Finding the right layout is just as important as choosing the right style. From versatile pieces that adapt to your room to iconic silhouettes that define a space, here are a few common configurations to know.

Modular Sectional Sofas

Modular sectional sofas feature individual components that can be arranged to suit your space—and rearranged as needed. Ideal for changing layouts and flexible seating, modular sectional sofas are perfect for family rooms, lofts, or anywhere you want to maximize versatility without compromising on style. You can build your own layout piece by piece with designs like our Buckley Modular Sectional Sofa. 

Chaise Sectional Sofas

A classic chaise sectional sofa adds an extended seat for lounging while keeping a compact footprint. These sectional couches are great for apartment living or anyone who loves to stretch out. With the right styling, a chaise sectional offers relaxed comfort with a tailored edge.

Corner Sectional Sofas

Designed to wrap around and define a room, corner sectional sofas provide generous seating and a built-in sense of structure. Whether L-shaped or U-shaped, these large sectional sofas are ideal for entertaining, giving everyone a seat with room to spare. Use one to ground a great room or create a focal point in an open-plan layout.

Sectional Sofas with Ottomans

A matching ottoman can make your sectional even more functional. Use it as a footrest, a coffee table alternative, or extra seating when guests arrive. Many ottomans can be moved around or tucked away, giving you more control over how you use your living space. We love the sink-in comfort and flexibility of the Carson Modular Sectional Sofa with Ottoman for shaping a dynamic, open-plan layout. 

Sectional Sofa Shopping Tips

Remember, shop for your space. Think about how a sectional will live in your home. Is it your main lounge spot, a spot for entertaining, or the heart of family downtime? How does it play with the room’s lighting, rug, and other furniture? This will help guide your style and layout decisions.

Also, think about how the sectional fits into your overall design. A small sectional sofa like the Belmont Sectional Sofa by Ginny Macdonald can cozy up a family room, while a corner sectional can bring symmetry to an open room. With so many shapes and configurations available, it’s worth taking the time to find your perfect match.

However you style it, a sectional couch is a foundational piece that offers both comfort and impact. Loved ones and visitors alike will feel drawn to it, so make it a piece that reflects the way you live—and want to live.
