A SOFA IN YOUR KITCHEN? WHY NOT!

A busy kitchen is what brings a home together. What better way to bond than over good food? So, whether it’s breakfast, lunch or dinner that brings your family together, kitchen sofas make perfect sense. Moreover, with more and more people adopting open and free flowing living spaces with informal themes, a tastefully chosen sofa in your kitchen can be a brilliant addition into your home. Below, you will find some great kitchen sofa ideas and also our best kitchen sofa recommendations here at Abakus Direct.

KITCHEN SOFAS – HOW TO PICK ONE?

SOFAS WITH SPILL PROOF FABRICS

A sofa in your kitchen is never too far away from a lot of busy action. The last thing you want is to be cooking up a storm and then having to walk by a sofa with fussy upholstery that is difficult to clean. Fabric sofas make perfect sense here. The Chicago sofa with its hydrophobic upholstery makes for an excellent choice of kitchen sofa. Its fabric repels stains. Whether its teas or wines, the spills won’t seep into the sofa fabric. They instead conveniently collect at the surface, allowing you to simply wipe it away with a paper towel. It’s a very practical choice for a kitchen sofa. Our Chicago range comes in all sofa configurations possible, from 3 and 2 seaters to corner sofas to armchairs and even swivel chairs.

KITCHEN SOFAS THAT DEFINE ZONES

If your kitchen is large enough, a 3 seater, 2 seater or even a corner sofa can be an excellent way to break up the kitchen space. By simply pairing a sofa with a rug and other furniture items like a coffee table, your kitchen can look like the place to lounge, as and when a delicious meal is being prepped.

If you entertain often, demarcating a guest zone with a kitchen sofa will allow you to have conversations with your guests without them stepping into your culinary space. It’s not just for guests either. Need to whip up pancakes or eggs for your kids while also being able to keep an eye on them? A kitchen sofa is just perfect for that as well. They stay in a designated space and you can focus on meal prep while engaging them about their day they are going to have at school.

So, in essence, a kitchen sofa can be very functional. Pick a sofa size that will serve your needs and also your style preferences. The last thing you want is to pick a kitchen sofa for purely ornamental reasons. A kitchen is where space is very valuable. You only want a sofa in there if it is going to make your life easier and more functional. And creating zones with your sofa is a great way of ensuring just that.

Our Jumbo Cord sofas shown below find the perfect balance between utility, style and comfort. Available as a 3 seater, 2 seater, corner sofa or armchair or cuddle chair.

SOFAS THAT FIND THE HIGH GROUND

Small kitchen but still need a sofa that is going to be close to all the hustle and bustle?  That’s when a sofa that sits on high ground makes perfect sense. Take our Harper 2 seater for example. With tall blonde legs, the area under the sofa is easy to vacuum under, as long as you have those telescopic arms on your vacuum. The Harper is incredibly stylish as well, at a humble price.

If you have a French styled kitchen, the Harper will just compliment your kitchen’s beautiful aesthetics even more.

MINE, JUST MINE!

Not every home’s kitchen is frequented by all of its residents. Sometimes, it’s just you doing all the cooking. Sure, others help out in other areas of the home. But, the kitchen in your abode. So, why not give yourself some quality time while you are in there. Our Ingrid cuddle chair makes perfect sense here. Expansive enough for you to curl up and rest your legs while your pots simmer on the stove. They are also perfect for you to flip through a magazine or sip on the rest of your coffee after you have done most of your hard work in the kitchen. Our Ingrid cuddle chair is available in a wide range of rustic colours that will look just brilliant in a kitchen. With a small footprint, they are a smart way to introduce functional and stylish furniture into your kitchen, again, for a very modest cost.
