U-Shaped Sofas

U-shaped sofas from Nomu wrap around a room on three sides, giving everyone a place to sit and stretch out. Leading the range is the Nova Story, a modular sectional built wide and deep in an illustrated, multicoloured fabric. Its bold print suits a contemporary living room, while the sectional build lets you shape the seating to your space.

Seating that wraps the room

A U-shaped sofa runs along three sides of a space, so people face one another rather than lining up in a row. That wrap-around shape gives everyone a place to sit and stretch out, and turns the sofa itself into the thing the room is arranged around. It works best in a room with enough floor area to carry its width, where the open side faces a television, a fireplace or a window.

Modular, sectional build

Built as a modular sectional, the seating comes in sections you can arrange to fit the corner or wall you are working with. This lets you shape the layout to your space rather than forcing the room to suit a fixed frame, and makes a wide, deep sofa easier to move into place and to set up once it arrives. The same sections can be reworked later if you move or rearrange the room, so the sofa adapts rather than dictating one fixed arrangement.

Fabric and look

The upholstery is fabric, finished here in a bold, illustrated multicoloured print. It reads as the centrepiece of a contemporary living room, so it works best where the surrounding pieces are kept simpler and let the sofa do the talking. Plain rugs, walls and side tables give the print room to breathe rather than competing with it for attention, and let the seating set the mood for the rest of the space.

Planning the layout

Because a U-shape is wide and deep, measure the floor area carefully and plan a route around the open side before it arrives. Leave a walkway between the front edge and a coffee table or media unit so the seating feels generous rather than boxed in, and check that doorways and hallways can take the sections on the way in.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a U-shaped sofa?

A U-shaped sofa runs along three sides of a space, wrapping the seating around so people face one another. It gives a generous amount of room to sit and stretch out and usually sits at the centre of a living room layout, with the open side facing a television, fireplace or window.

Can a U-shaped sofa be rearranged?

Yes. Built as a modular sectional, it comes in sections you can arrange to suit a particular corner or wall, so you can shape the layout to your room rather than working around a single fixed frame. The same sections can be reworked if you move or change the room later.

What upholstery is used?

The upholstery is fabric, finished in a bold illustrated multicoloured print. It suits a contemporary living room and reads best when the rug, walls and side tables around it are kept simpler, giving the print room to stand out.

How much space does a U-shaped sofa need?

Because the shape is wide and deep, measure the floor area before ordering and leave a clear walkway around the open side. A gap between the front edge and a coffee table or media unit keeps the seating feeling open, and it is worth checking that doorways can take the sections on the way in.
