A sofa set is the piece you’ll use most, and the one guests notice first. A solid teak frame should last decades; cushions can be redone when they wear. Here’s how to choose the right one.

1. Choose the layout

3+1+1 is the classic Indian living-room set: a three-seater with two single chairs. It suits most rooms and is easy to rearrange.
3+2 works when the room is long and narrow.
L-shaped corner sofas suit open living-dining spaces and seat more people in less floor area.
Sectionals can be rearranged as your home changes.

2. Measure

A three-seater is typically around 6–7 feet wide. Leave at least 2.5 feet of walkway between the sofa and the tepoy and other furniture. Check the lift and doorway too: corner sofas are delivered in sections.

3. Pick a style

Slatted or lattice arms: light and airy, good for smaller rooms. See the Classic Slat-Arm Sofa Set.
Cane panels: traditional and breathable, cool in summer. See the Emerald Cane Sofa Set.
Carved: a statement piece for larger rooms and older homes.
Fully upholstered: softer and more modern, with the teak frame showing at the base.

4. Cushions and fabric

We make cushions in-house for every sofa. Firmer, high-density foam keeps its shape and is easier for older family members to get up from. For homes with children or pets, choose darker or patterned fabrics, or covers with zips so they can be washed.
