There is nothing more frustrating than buying your dream sofa, only to realise that it is far too big and overwhelming for your living room or lounge space. Despite being a popular trend across social media, oversized sofas have their place, but not in smaller apartments or compact rooms.
Investing in the wrong sofa can quickly become a costly mistake; therefore, it is crucial to carefully consider the available space and the needs of your household to ensure you make the right choice. Take the necessary time to thoroughly research the options available to you and explore GlobeWest’s collection of 3-seater sofas, as well as other trusted brands, for guaranteed quality and value.
The Evergreen Loveseat
There is nothing more stylish and trendy than sustainability, and the Evergreen Loveseat manages to deliver an eco-friendly furniture option in a beautiful package. This silky smooth velvet sofa, with gently sloped armrests for maximised lounging, is made using sustainable materials and practices, including recycled fabrics, ethically sourced materials, free repairs and an innovative sustainability program that will find a new home for your furniture piece if you ever choose to get rid of it.
If velvet doesn’t excite you, the loveseat is also available in hemp upholstery and can be purchased in eight different colours to suit any home interior. It can be delivered pre-assembled or in individual pieces for at-home assembly, and while it may not have back pillows, it provides the ultimate statement.
Mercer 41 Rhylin Reversible Upholstered Sectional
The Mercer 41 Rhylin Reversible Upholstered Sectional with Chaise is a chic, durable, and incredibly comfortable sofa option for smaller spaces. The pillowy and rounded armrests are perfect for resting your head, and the raised legs and soft chenille material give the piece a stylish and modern finish.
The sofa is delivered in vacuum-sealed bags and requires at-home assembly, which is relatively simple to navigate, albeit somewhat time-consuming, with all the necessary tools and materials included and clearly labelled.
Sunday’s Get Together 3-Piece Modular Sofa
It is safe to say that modular sofas are the trend of the future, and Sundays’ Get Together 3-Piece Modular Sofa is an ultra-comfortable, durable, and chic example of this. Despite its modern development, the design is both polished and traditional, making it a suitable addition to any home, whether old or new. Made from high-quality, moisture-repellent, stain-resistant, and washable fabric, the modular sections allow you to easily add and remove pieces to perfectly fit the space.
If the 3-piece sofa is too overwhelming for your smaller lounge area, consider selecting the smaller Movie Night 2-Piece Modular Sofa, which still delivers the comfort and style of Sundays’ craftsmanship but at a more manageable size.

Floyd Home Two-Piece Form Sectional
A common complaint for overly cushiony sofas is that they can often look crumpled and misformed, requiring plenty of pillow-fluffing to maintain aesthetic appeal. But the Floyd Home Two-Piece Form Sectional manages to maintain a modern and stylish finish without compromising on comfort.
The modular sofa is available in over 15 colour options and has a sturdy and cosy build with clean lines and plenty of back support. Durable and easy-to-clean fabrics ensure the upholstery retains its quality appearance.
Article Braam Sofa Bed
Sofas and beds are two types of furniture that can quickly take up an excessive amount of space in your home. However, for smaller spaces where function and comfort need to be accommodated in a more compact area, Article has created the perfect sofa bed that works as a small and cosy couch which can fold out to a queen-size bed.
Ideal for a working office space or a small guest room, it is made from thick and high-quality material with a durable frame that will keep your guests comfortable and well-rested. However, similar to regular bed sizes, taller individuals may find their feet hanging off the end.
Room & Board Metro Sofa
If you are after a simple and classic sofa with the perfect level of firmness for both socialising and lounging, the Room & Board Metro Sofa will be the ideal choice for you. A standout feature of this pick is the impressive customisation. Available in seven sizes and 225 fabric options, you can effortlessly design a sofa that seamlessly fits into your home setup.
Although it is on the more expensive side, you can view it as an investment piece that will easily pay for itself in the long run. The durable materials stand up exceptionally well to everyday wear and tear and the added mess of pet ownership.
