Of course, if you do not arrange everything competently and tastefully, you will get the impression that this sofa was brought here simply by mistake, because the interior surrounding it does not even come close to the design style of the sofa.

Fortunately, experienced designers who have been specializing in the embodiment of bold designs for many years have discovered some of the secrets and subtleties of such a design.
Color solutions and combinations
In order for everything to look as stylish as possible and at the same time not particularly striking, you need to carefully read what colors are combined and how purple can look in general in the interior.
- If, nevertheless, you decide to install a purple sofa in the middle of the room, then you need to understand that the finish should be colder. Black, white or gray tones are perfect for these purposes.
- You can decorate a room in which there is a purple sofa with various decorative elements or parts of the interior that have a golden or silver surface. This will smooth out the brightness of the odd color of the upholstery and at the same time add luxury to the interior. But the main thing here is not to overdo it. You need to find the very measure that will make the room luxurious, but at the same time not turn it into a scene from a cartoon.
- Regardless of what style of interior you choose, there are colors that will go well with a purple sofa. This is a contrast with mustard, light green, lemon color. Moreover, such an incongruous duet is equally suitable for both the classic style and the modern interior. Thanks to such a bold approach to solving the problem, it will be possible to open completely new boundaries for the stylistic combination of furniture in the interior.
- Blue color in tandem with purple, can look not only stylish, but also luxurious. I often use these two colors in pairs if the designer is trying to create a romantic atmosphere that immediately catches the eye and is remembered for a long time.
- Well, psychologists unanimously claim that purple promotes relaxation. This is why purple sofas can be installed in the break room. But for the living room, they will be very appropriate.
These are the basic principles of color combinations and effects.
The choice of material for upholstery
It will be very important to choose the right material for the upholstery of the sofa, since how comfortable your choice will be will depend on how comfortable you will be to sit on it.
- Genuine leather is considered the most expensive, but at the same time the most luxurious upholstery material for sofas. Dyeing your skin purple is easy. But you need to understand that in summer it will be very hot to sit on such a sofa, and in winter, on the contrary, it will be cold.
- Leatherette looks almost exactly the same as genuine leather, but it costs several times more. But as regrettable as it may sound, the problems of such an upholstery material are exactly the same as those of genuine leather.
- Eco-leather allows the sofa to look beautiful, but at the same time in the summer it will be comfortable to sit on such a surface.
And of course the usual fabric, which is considered a budget option.
