Deb Saunders: Plump, curvy sofas in earthy tones are a winner right now

What's happening in the world of sofas? Well, they are looking a whole lot plumper, softer, curvy and fuller lately. A bit like they've indulged in some iso eating and they're all the better for it, I say.
There are no hard angles, they are easy on the eye — and the behind too.
We are noticing seat cushions are fuller with a sizeable amount of sofa seat between you and the floor, which makes them so comfortable and creates a visual impact. There are curves too, lots of lovely curves.

The new breed of sofa is made for ramped up relaxing — think weekend vibes all week long. They not only feel good, but they look amazing too. Get ready to sofa snooze in style and with comfort at the forefront of sofa design right now — you might never want to leave your living room.
Earthy hues are taking centre stage when it comes to colour. You can find so many beautiful colours, but earthy tones work well back with this rounded soft trend. I'm a sucker for a warm natural palette.
White and linen colours have been popular for a while and are still front runners, but lovely caramels and tans are also gaining momentum.
I've been on the hunt for a new sofa at home and have done some thorough searching.
I've pulled together some of my favourite plump, puffy sofa styles that I'm really loving at the moment. I can imagine gorgeous textural rugs thrown into the mix and some great cushions added for effortless style.
When furnishing your home do what you absolutely love. Many of these sofas are available in other colours too, so get creative go with your gut — don't be afraid to try new styles in your space. Mix it up and have some fun.
