Help me with sofas

We live in an apartment and we need a new living room set. We cant decide between these options.

option one
Is not as red in person as in the picture. I will also get an accent chair (not the same color)

Re: Help me with sofas

I said #2. The color is neutral enough that you can dress it up with accent pillows or a throw and if you ever move or change paint colors in the room, it will still go. I like the red, but that's a commitment to a color scheme and I like to stay neutral in case I change my mind.

ITA! A few new throw pillows and you can change the whole look!

I love 1. And it gives you that extra seating, I always see people use the end pice, where as a 3 person sofa rarely gets used as that.

This is what I was thinking regarding the color and the commitment.. DH like the red one because our apartment wall is an off white and the carpet (wall to wall), he said that the red couch will bring some "life" to the LR

I agree with above. love the style of 1, but color of #2. Not a fan of the red for the long term.
