Homeowners willing to experiment with the color scheme of their living space on a regular basis would surely benefit from modular units which let you redecorate without much fuss. Apart from moving around individual sofa units to fashion a different setup in the living room, you can move out the one or two brightly colored units of the sofa and bring in an entirely new accent hue. The older pieces can easily become a part of the family room, study, guest room or even the playroom and nothing is ever a waste!

Adaptable, Light and Breezy

A modular sofa need not always be used to usher in bold color. You can still go down the tried and tested neutral route and add a couch in light bluish-gray, pastel pink or just plain brown while embracing the adaptability. Here, it is the functional aspect of the modular couch that becomes the protagonist while its aesthetics feel no different from a regular sofa in white or gray.

Many of the latest modular sofas can also easily be turned into dashing sectional by adding additional units over time. As the needs of the family grow with time, additional individual modules can be brought in. And when it is time to party, moving a couple of units out to create additional floor space becomes an absolute breeze. It is this versatility that makes the modular sofa such a huge hit in an open plan living.

Smart, Space-Conscious Sectionals

The advantages of modular sectional go beyond simple redecorating ease. In case of a damage or an irremovable stain to a single module of the sectional, you can easily replace it without having o throw away the entire sectional. Also, modular units allow you to compose corner sectionals that exactly match with your floor plan and make most of the available space. You no longer have to struggle with making that slightly larger or inconvenient sectional that seems a bit out of place in your small living area.
