It’s funny how design trends can slip right onto your TikTok feed, tiptoe into your favorite stores, and slide right into your own home before you even realize it’s happening. But chances are you might have noticed a slight softening when it comes to one of the most important pieces of furniture: the sofa. You’re not alone—according to a recent survey from Afterpay, curved sofa designs have seen a 207 percent increase in purchases so far this year compared to 2023. The other item that has seen a significant bump? The curved table.
Sweeping sofa silhouettes have dotted interiors for generations, from Ubald Klug’s Terrazza sofa from the early 1970s to the De Sede DS600 Non-stop sofa of the same era. The new spring collection from Lulu and Georgia shows the range of a single curve. According to the brand, the furniture pieces are inspired by “the craving for everything bright, lighter, and airier.” The Shaw modern sofa is a prime example of this: It serves mid-century vibes with a wavy backrest, but clean lines and caramel-hued velvet bring it right back into the present day—it’s a refreshing (and lighter!) take on the super-curvy sofas of decades past.
But back to the topic of curvy tables for a moment, because this particular trend can be tougher to imagine in this space. You may be picturing wavy edges and drum-shaped bases, but, again, this collection challenges the traditional notion of a contoured silhouette. Take the Kent side table. The design drops a set of spheres right in the middle of the rectangular legs. (It’s fun! It’s quirky!) The Lozano accent chair is another favorite, with its chubby legs and rounded seat. The curvy ethos also trickles into the accessories (give the Kester bowl a peek for proof).
Some trends cross that vague and beautiful line into timeless territory, and it seems the idea of all things undulating is (and has been) on that journey. We recommend taking a cue from the Kent table and cozying up your curvy pieces next to a few angles for a splash of fresh contrast.
