Dark leather sofa
Who can forget the iconic scene from Friends where Joey and Chandler take delivery of their twin, tan leather, reclining armchairs? Then the episode where they didn’t get out of them for a whole day! Once the epitome of money and style, these oversized leather sofas and armchairs filled our living rooms throughout the nineties.
The amount of space they take up for the seating they give you is slightly ridiculous. The dark leather shows scratches and wear far too easily, and having that much dark furniture in your room makes the whole room feel dark and oppressive. Time to get shot of these space hogs, and find some fitted cover, slimline sofas instead.
