Everyday Sofa - 2.5 Seater with Chaise

It's 198cm wide, 99cm deep and 73cm tall, and that's the whole footprint with the arms included. Between those arms you get 135cm of seat, because each arm takes up 31.5cm. The seat itself sits 43cm off the floor and runs 91cm deep, so it's slim against the wall and surprisingly deep once you're in it. If you've got a 2 metre alcove you've been trying to fill, this is the one.

Almost always, yes. Your 2 seater sofa arrives as two separate modules rather than one 198cm block, so the biggest thing you'll ever have to carry is roughly 99cm square. That'll turn through a standard 82cm doorway on its side and slide into most apartment lifts without any drama. The covers come packed separately too, which is one less thing to wrestle up the stairs.

Two adults, comfortably. Think of it as a 2 seater sofa, with just a bit more breathing room. You've got 135cm of seat between the arms, which works out at around 67cm each, so nobody's holding their elbows in. A third will squeeze on if everyone's friendly. And as any parent knows, kids don't count in this calculation, which is how a small modular sofa ends up with four people on it come Sunday morning.

Yes, you can. Add an Armless Module ($1,050) to make it wider, an Armless Chaise ($1,300) to stretch out on, or a Corner Module ($1,300) to turn it into an L. Everything slots together without tools. Just order in the same fabric, colour and arm height, and your new piece will sit alongside what you already own like it was always there.

Two rectangular scatter cushions come included, filled with recycled polyester and cutting foam. They're rectangles for a reason, they're there to give your lower back a gentle nudge rather than to be arranged in the corners. The back cushions are separate and stay where they are. If you'd like more, our Feather Blend Cushion is sold on its own, and the covers on everything come off for a cold machine wash.

Both, and you can change your mind whenever you like. The chaise is its own module, so you decide which side it lives on when you set the sofa up, and you move it again when the room changes. There's no lefthand or right-hand version to order, which means there's no wrong choice at checkout. The swap takes a few minutes, two people and no tools.

The main difference is depth. Both are 198cm wide, both stand 73cm tall, both seat two and a half, and both come with two cushions. The standard one is 99cm deep. This chaise lounge sofa is 146cm deep on one side. So for an extra $200 to $300, depending on the fabric you choose, you're buying somewhere to put your legs up. If your room is tight from front to back, the standard 2.5 seater should suit you better.

The chaise section runs 113cm deep from the back of the seat against 66cm for the rest of the sofa, so you'll want to clear 1.46m from the wall instead of 0.99m. We'd leave another 60cm in front so you can walk past without turning sideways. Our advice, mark it out on the floor with masking tape first.

Yes. An Armless Chaise module is $1,300 and slots onto either end. Order it in the same fabric, colour and arm height as your sofa and it'll match beautifully. Worth knowing though, buying the chaise configuration up front costs less than adding it afterwards, so if you're already leaning that way, it's cheaper to decide now.

No, both versions come with the same two rectangular scatter cushions, filled with recycled polyester and cutting foam. The chaise gives you depth. If you'd like your chaise lounge sofa to feel more like a proper daybed, a Feather Blend Cushion or two will do it nicely.

We'd set aside an evening rather than five minutes, and we'd rather be upfront about that. Your 4 Seater Couch arrives as three modules with the covers packed separately, because they're designed to come off and go in the wash.

Fitting them on is the fiddly part. There are no tools involved, but you'll want a second pair of hands, somewhere to put the boxes and some music on.

The 4 seater modular sofa is 289cm wide, 99cm deep and 73cm high, so call it 2.98 metres of wall. Between the arms you get 226cm of seat split across three modules, with each arm taking 31.5cm. Three adults can sit comfortably, making this a generous option if you’re comparing a 4 seater and 3 seater sofa.

The difference is depth and the addition of an interchangeable chaise. Both are 289cm wide and 73cm high. The straight 4 Seater is 99cm deep, while adding the chaise extends one side to 146cm.

The seat count and cushion count stay the same, with three cushions included. Choose the standard version if your room is narrower or the sofa needs to float. Go for the chaise if you have the extra depth and want the flexibility to switch the chaise from left to right.

Yes. An Armless Chaise is $1,300 and slots onto either end of your 4 seater lounge without tools, in the same fabric, colour and arm height. It does cost less to buy the chaise configuration from the start, so if you already know you want it, choose it now. And if you're unsure, start with the straight 4 Seater. It's far easier to add depth later than to take it away.

Three rectangular scatter cushions, included, filled with recycled polyester and cutting foam. Whether you're looking at the 4 Seater or a 3 seater sofa, the cushions are designed to support your back rather than simply fill the sofa.

Yes, as often as you like. Your chaise is its own module, so you lift it off one end, carry it to the other and slot it back in. With three seats and a chaise on the side, you get the comfort of a 3 seater sofa with chaise and more room to lounge. Nothing is glued, bolted or handed.

A few minutes with two people. Pull the modules apart, move the chaise across, push them back together. No tools, no fixings, nothing to lose down the back of the frame. The only real work is sliding the sofa out from the wall first.

There's just one version. You choose the side when you put it together, and you change it whenever the room changes. You won't find a left or right option in our configurator, because a sofa with chaise built from modules simply doesn't need one.

47cm. The straight 4 seater is 99cm deep, and with the chaise it's 146cm on the chaise side. The width stays at 289cm either way and the height stays at 73cm.

Three rectangular scatter cushions, the same as the straight 4 Seater. Your chaise lounge sofa buys you 47cm of depth. They're filled with recycled polyester and cutting foam, shaped for your back rather than the corners, and the covers come off for a cold machine wash. Add a Feather Blend Cushion if you'd like the chaise to read more like a daybed.

It comes down to the corner. An L-shaped couch turns 90 degrees using a proper corner module, so both sides have a full back and two people can sit facing each other and actually talk. A chaise is an open-ended extension with no back along the long side, made for lying down rather than sitting up.

In numbers, our 5 Seater Sofa runs 289cm along one wall and 198cm down the other, while the 4 Seater with Chaise is 289cm wide and 146cm deep. So the L gives you 52cm more return, plus a fifth seat with something to lean against.

289cm by 198cm, and 73cm high. Picture a 1.98 by 2.89 metre rectangle sitting in the corner of your room. Leave 60cm to walk past the open end. And if you're buying a rug to go underneath, 200cm wide is the minimum before the sofa starts hanging off the edge. 250cm looks better.

Yes. The corner is a single module and the rest are armless modules, so you build your L facing whichever way the room wants it. Change your mind later and nothing needs tools or a service call. This one you can flip in an afternoon, when the television moves or the room takes on a new job.

Not quite. Same seat count, different footprint. The standard L is 289cm by 198cm, while the Extended is 289cm by 281cm, so the return grows by another module and the shape almost squares off.

The biggest difference is the open end. The 5 Seater L-shape Extended has an open end, while the 6 Seater has a closed arm end, giving the Extended more flexibility around the room. Both are 289cm along the long wall, but the Extended is 281cm deep compared with 289cm for the 6 Seater.

The main difference is the extra length on the return. The standard L-shape is 289cm by 198cm, while the Extended is 289cm by 281cm. Both have five seats and four cushions, but the Extended gives the family more room to stretch out without adding another seat.

It works particularly well in larger living rooms where there’s space for an L-shaped sectional. You get five proper seats, plus extra room to stretch out along the extended return, making it a comfortable choice for families and households with more than two people.

Four cushions come with the Extended, filled with recycled polyester and cutting foam. The covers come off for a cold machine wash. The Ottoman, if you add one, doesn't come with a cushion.

Six adults, comfortably. Three can sit along the long side, one in the corner and two along the return, so there’s room for the whole family without anyone fighting over the good seat. The corner is also a handy spot for whoever gets there first.

You get a sixth seat, a fifth cushion and 8cm of extra depth, plus a closed arm end instead of the Extended’s open end. If your household has six people, that extra seat can make a real difference. If you prefer more freedom to move around the sofa, the Extended’s open end gives you greater flexibility.

Yes. It measures 289cm by 289cm, so it works particularly well in a larger living room where you have the space to let an L-shaped sofa breathe. It needs just 8cm more depth than the Extended, but gives you an extra seat for family, friends or whoever inevitably turns up at dinner.

Five rectangular scatter cushions, one more than the Extended. They're filled with recycled polyester and cutting foam to give you back support across the deep seats. The covers come off for a cold machine wash.

Yes. You can add an Armless Module for $1,050, an Armless Chaise for $1,300, a Corner Module for $1,300 or an Ottoman for $550. They slot in without tools and can be matched to your sofa's fabric, colour and arm height. If you're already furnishing a big family living room, though, we'd measure twice before adding more.

A conversation pit is a sunken seating area designed around conversation. Instead of everyone facing a TV or sitting in rows, the seats face inwards, creating a more intimate space for talking, hosting and hanging out. It can also serve as the main seating area in a living room.

Because sometimes the living room is for more than watching TV. A conversation pit creates a place to gather, whether that means hosting friends, having family over or lingering over drinks after dinner. It’s a little unconventional, which is rather the point.

Not necessarily. What you'd typically think of as a sunken lounge is built into a lowered section of the floor, which means structural work and a builder. But you can create a similar intimate, sunken-in feeling with a low modular sofa arrangement without changing the floor at all.

The Conversation Pit is designed for larger living rooms where you have enough space to create a dedicated seating area. Measure the full footprint, including the space needed to walk around it, rather than just measuring the sofa itself.

It typically seats up to 9 people comfortably, giving you a proper gathering space rather than a sofa where everyone ends up fighting over the corner. It's particularly useful for households that regularly host family and friends.
