Sofa size
When selecting a sofa, consider both the space available and the number of people you want to seat. The sofa is the anchor piece of your living room, influencing the layout and the placement of other furniture.
2 seater leather sofas are ideal for 2 to 3 room HDB flats in Singapore. 3 seater leather sofas or L-shaped leather coaches are perfect for 4 room flats. 4 seater, modular or sectionals are best suited for 5-room flats or larger homes.

Budget
Set a budget for your sofa to avoid overspending. Your budget also influences the type of leather or material you can choose, helping you find the perfect balance between quality, style and cost.
Type of leather
The type of leather you choose depends on your needs, lifestyle and budget.
Full-grain leather sofas, also known as full aniline leather sofas, are ideal if you are looking for durability and natural character. Made from the top layer of the hide, full-grain leather showcases unique grain patterns and is highly long-lasting. It tends to be thicker and firmer compared to other types of leather. (At Grey & Sanders, our full and top grain leather sofas feature the same thickness, offering a perfect balance of comfort and durability.)
Top-grain leather sofas, also known as semi-aniline leather sofas, are perfect if you prefer a softer, more comfortable seating experience. With a more uniform appearance, top-grain leather blends seamlessly into most interiors and is generally more affordable than full-grain leather, making it a practical choice for stylish and cosy living space.
Choosing the right leather ensures your sofa is both comfortable and durable, enhancing your living room for years to come.
