Spring Style
Spring brings with it a feeling of joy and optimism. After the long winter months, it’s a real pleasure to experience brighter skies, warmer days and longer evenings. It’s a great time to open the windows, let the light in and freshen up your interior style. Embrace the abundance of natural light with furniture and accessories in soft, neutral tones and understated pastels.
To avoid your lounge looking like a sweet shop, choose subtle shades with a grey undertone. This means you’ll keep your lounge looking elegant and your sofa will be easy to accessorise with complementary tones.

Spring Clean your Sofa
The new season is a perfect time for a spring clean. Although dusting and vacuuming aren't on our list of favourite activities, we love the results of clean, fresh house. Whilst you’re washing the windows and clearing away the cobwebs, don’t forget about your sofa! Although The Lounge Co. recommends you use a specialist upholstery cleaning company for your sofa, here are our top tips to keep it looking great all year round:
• Periodically clean wooden legs with a damp cloth rinsed in warm water and then buff with a soft duster to restore the shine
• Fibre filled cushions and scatters should be plumped regularly to prevent flattening and reversible cushions should be turned weekly to avoid localised wear and tear
• For leather furniture, you can dust with a soft brush and wipe with a damp cloth. Do not rub the leather as this could damage the surface. We do not recommend any leather cleaning products as they may damage the leather
• For fabric sofas, regular cleaning with a brush or a light vacuum will help keep your furniture looking smart. If you spill something on your sofa, immediately blot with a clean, dry cloth
• Think your sofa might be subject to everyday dirt and stains? You may want to consider our innovative Family Friendly Fabrics which use Aquaclean® Technology, meaning you can clean household stains with just water. Find out more here
