They say a classic is a classic for a reason.

In the case of the tried-and-tested traditional brown sofa that is certainly true. From rich chocolate brown to light sandy shades, this classic is not only timeless but versatile, too.

The team at Alpine Lounge agrees. As such, they stock a wide selection of individual sofas and full suites. The epitome of luxury and finesse, each piece is crafted with industry-leading techniques for lasting quality and comfort in dark mahogany, hazelnut, coffee and every shade in between.

Here, the team shares some tips for styling your classic brown sofa for a unique look.

Layer earthy neutrals
A great starter piece around which to design the rest of your interior, a classic brown sofa can look super chic and contemporary in a light caramel shade paired with other brown accents such as wood flooring or panelling, and textured hazel-brown throws and scatters.
Balance brown with bold
Navy blue or emerald green can be a tricky colour to pull off on its own. Balance a bold palette with a warm brown sofa to anchor the space.
Combine classic and contemporary
You might think a modern or minimalist interior calls for a sleek designer couch but a brown leather Chesterfield can work equally well in a contemporary scheme as it adds vintage charm, warmth and gravitas to a space. Just add a fur throw and some scatters and you’ve got Scandi chic covered. Or how about black and metal accents for a cool modern farmhouse vibe?
Spice it up
Yellows, oranges, reds, corals and pinks are the perfect match for a brown sofa if you want to create a cosy space.
Create a statement wall
While most people swap out scatters and throws to update their sofa, a great option is to create an accent wall behind your sofa to really make the space unique – and your sofa pop. Wallpaper, paint or panelling are all great options to consider.
