Sofa buying tips
The right sofa is more than just a seat – it’s a statement. Here’s how to find the perfect one with tips from Lacey Russell, brand ambassador from Silk & Snow.
Measure with intention
Before you fall in love with a sofa, know what your space can handle. “Take exact measurements of your living room, then map it out with painter’s tape on the floor,” says Russell. This helps you visualize size, flow and whether extras such as an ottoman or sectional will fit nicely with a rug or coffee table.
Balance function and lifestyle
How you’ll use the sofa should guide your choice. “Ask yourself: Is this for lounging, hosting or more formal seating?” suggests Russell. A deep sectional encourages cosy movie nights, while a structured three-seater works best for conversation-focused layouts. Modular sofas are a great option, as you’re easily able to add to the seating or change the orientation, adapting to your needs.
Prioritize comfort and quality
A sofa is a long-term investment, so durability matters. Look for kiln-dried hardwood frames that resist warping and thick cushions that keep their shape. “High-density foam provides structure, while a down blend offers plush comfort,” Russell explains. Many Canadian retailers even let you customize the fill.
Choose fabrics that work hard
From stain-resistant performance fabrics to luxe bouclé or linen, the right upholstery makes all the difference. “If you have kids, pets or clumsy friends, performance fabrics are a must,” she says. Leather is long-lasting but can scratch; softer textiles feel elevated but may need more care.
Think local, plan ahead
Supporting Canadian-made sofas not only backs local craftsmanship, but also avoids costly tariffs and long shipping times.

Kitchen trends 2026
Grounded in nature yet layered with modern utility, this kitchen by Canadian designer Tiffany Leigh of Tiffany Leigh Design captures 2026’s defining design directions, where organic hues, warm wood, sculptural lighting and artisanal details come together in a space that feels elevated and effortless.
Nature’s palette
Olive cabinetry paired with warm wood tones taps into the return of earth-first colour stories. Expect to see muted greens, soft creams and natural textures setting the tone in 2026 kitchens.
Mixed wood magic
Rich oak meets pale flooring for a play of contrast that feels intentional, layered and modern. The mix adds depth without overwhelming the space, a key move in the year ahead.
Sculptural lighting
Oversized brass pendants above the island blur the line between art and utility, spotlighting the growing demand for statement fixtures that anchor a room with presence.
Artisanal touches
From hand-thrown pottery to woven baskets and hammered copper, 2026 kitchens lean into craftsmanship and tactile, made-by-hand beauty. These pieces lend soul to highly functional spaces.
Open and intentional
Floating shelves and streamlined sightlines reflect a broader push toward kitchens that are as easy to use as they are to look at. Function meets quiet luxury in every detail.
