“The Parker Button-Back Sofa is especially versatile. It features a stylish contemporary design, however it can be easily tempered into a more traditional look with a scattering of cushions. The best part is that it is available in (deep breath) 14 different sizes, 96 fabric choices and six leg options.”

For curling up

“While we're all for snuggling up with the family on a comfy sofa, sometimes you want somewhere to curl up on your own with a book. The Mabel Snuggle Chaise in Plush Velvet Airforce Blue, priced at £975 is ideal for that. The modern shade of the sofa works beautifully with greys, neutrals and other blues, perfect for slotting into a small reading nook.”
