Velvet sectional options for cozy living spaces

If you're in need of a living room seating upgrade, consider a cozy velvet sectional from West Elm. These gorgeous sectionals come in a wide selection of shade options to complement any room's color scheme. And since the velvet sofa cushions look as good as they feel, they'll add style and comfort to your space.

West Elm sectionals come in several shapes and sizes, allowing you to maximize your living room seating. For large rooms, classic l-sectionals or u-sectionals are great choices. In small spaces, two-piece velvet chaise, reversible or sleeper sectionals are popular options. You can also customize the fit by choosing between small or large width sectionals and standard or extra deep seat depths.

choosing your perfect velvet

Sectionals at West Elm are available in dozens of fabric types, including microfiber, linen, twill and vegan leather. While deciding on a velvet sofa narrows your options down considerably, you'll still have three types of velvet to choose from: distressed, plush and performance. Distressed velvet is a brushed fabric that's soft to the touch but has a notably textured surface and a slight sheen. This subtle shine gives distressed velvet sofas an ultra-luxurious look. Plush and performance velvets are both short-pile fabrics with matte finishes. These matte fabrics are a great choice if you're looking to create a living room with sophisticated, polished appeal. While all velvet types are durable, fade-resistant performance velvet is the best option for high-traffic areas.

After choosing your perfect velvet fabric, the next step is to settle on a color that will work with your existing color scheme. If your living room needs a focal point, choose a shade like deep blue or green. These jewel-toned velvet sofas make an incredibly glamorous addition to any living space. There are also many neutral color options to choose from, including taupe, gray and light pink. You can then stick to a neutral monochromatic theme, or pair with a bright velvet armchair, patterned throw pillows or abstract over-the-sofa wall art to add color to your seating area. Complete the look with useful extras like a matching ottoman and sofa table to create a living room you'll love to use for relaxing and entertaining.
