The Long Island Leather Modular checks off every single item a demanding, social home deserves. Start the decision process by admiring it's perfectly subtle style - low profile lines are matched with simple, slim arms and solid, classic seating design that's roomy enough to host the whole neighbourhood. Comfort's taken care of with the feather, foam and fibre-filled interior seats - firm enough to give support but buoyant and soft enough to deliver that sink-in feeling. The timber frame, spring and webbed suspension stand up to frequent use and different weights, allowing the piece to be both pretty and tough. The deep seats and generous chaise element are set on solid feet which give the frame a sturdy quality to last for years - an important detail when you're shopping for the sofa that needs to stand the test of time and daily use. Cleaning and maintenance of a much-loved family piece like this one is key to the final decision and the leather upholstery and cushion details should seal the deal. Leather is the ideal choice for busy households as it is durable and resilient and develop more character with age and wear - cool in summer and warm in winter, it adapts to seasons to keep everyone comfortable. A quick wipe with a damp cloth cleans away dirt and spills while dust, crumbs and hair are gone with a vacuum once-over and the loose back and seat cushions mean getting to those hard-to-reach spots is easy; just remove, clean, re-plump and position. Lastly, you don't need to worry about energetic bodies pushing the pieces of this sofa apart - the modular elements clip together to minimise movement and gaps so your loved ones can connect while retaining their own space. Convinced yet? All this sofa needs now is for you to add your family and your perfect sofa is ready for memory-making. LONG ISLAND Modular Sofa 3S RAF + LAF Terminal Maxwell Taupe by Freedom
