The Best Tufted Leather Sofas for Open Plan Spaces
In an open plan space the back of the sofa is often the first thing people see, so the tufted leather sofas that work best are finished on every side. They also need enough scale to hold their own in a larger room without blocking views to the garden or between the kitchen and living area.

We cover getting the scale right, leaving comfortable walkways behind a floating sofa and adjusting for ceiling height in extensions. We look at defining the living zone with a console table, a large rug and layered lighting, choosing a leather colour that works with kitchen units and floors, and practical points for busy family rooms....
