The sofa (or lounge or settee or divan!) gives the kitchen a run for its money as the heart of the modern Australian home. That long upholstered seat is a place to relax, socialise, binge-watch TV and, especially on a large modular sofa, take a quick nap. A favourite armchair does the job too. The design style you choose can define a living space, and in commercial settings, a reception area or lobby.
