A decade ago when people were splurging on bigger homes, huge rooms and enormous pieces of furniture were in style. Now, furniture shoppers are demanding smaller sizes as people downsize, tire of excess, or retire to smaller homes. New York lofts, beach bungalows; or a townhouse in San Francisco, many living spaces are smaller than suburban homes. Regardless of the size of your place though, there is no reason to trade in style just because you have a small home.
If you needed small furniture, it usually came in limited fabric choices. There was nothing classy; nothing trendy was ever in small sized furniture. If you needed scaled back pieces, you were pretty much out-of-luck in the quality and style department too. A decade ago, smaller scaled furniture looked cheap and unattractive; like it belonged in a sorority house and not for an adult.
Many furniture and home design and décor stores now have collections for small spaces. One prominent and popular upscale furniture maker has literally redesigned and scaled down part of their gorgeous furniture and accessory collection. Now, the person that could never have their furniture because of it being too big for their homes, has a whole new shopping experience awaiting them.
Dining tables are usually 6 or 8 foot long; sometimes you can find a 4-foot table, but typically, it will look like a “kitchen table” rather than a classy dining piece. Now, you have many more options available for smaller and narrower dining table options. Typically, couches come in 6-8 foot lengths. Five-foot loveseats might be available, but good luck if you need a sofa in any other length. Now, you have many choices. More furniture makers are producing modular styles, where you can buy the seating arrangement you need; can place as many or as few together to get the desired length of seating you want.
Depth is a new design focus for smaller-scaled furniture. A traditional sofa depth is about 37″. A deep sofa may be 42″. Now, you can order sofas with a 28″ depth, saving even more room for other furnishings or walking paths in your living and family room.
