As the leaves start to turn and sweater weather settles in, there’s nothing better than curling up in a living room that feels warm, inviting, and—above all—comfortable. This fall, one design trend is helping to bring even more coziness into the home: the rise of soft, rounded furniture.
But don’t worry—this isn’t about high-end showrooms or ultra-modern statement pieces. At Godwin’s Furniture & Mattress, we’re seeing brands like La-Z-Boy and Ashley Furniture introduce subtle curves, plush silhouettes, and welcoming textures that are perfect for real homes and real families across Michigan.
Here’s how to bring the look into your space—no dramatic makeover required.
Why Soft Shapes Feel So Right This Fall
After a busy summer, fall is when we naturally slow down and spend more time indoors. Our living rooms become movie night central, game day headquarters, and the place where we unwind after a long day. So it makes sense that furniture is following suit—leaning into comfort, softness, and approachable style.
This season, think:
-Gently curved arms on sofas and chairs
-Plush seat cushions that invite you to sink in
-Soft edges on coffee tables and ottomans
-Textured fabrics like chenille, velvet, and yes—even a little bouclé
Comfy & Curved: La-Z-Boy Style
When you think of La-Z-Boy, comfort is probably the first word that comes to mind. But did you know that many of their newest designs are also embracing curvier silhouettes?
From rounded pillow arms to softly arched backs and plush, overstuffed cushions, La-Z-Boy’s latest sofas and recliners bring a subtle softness to your space without sacrificing the classic comfort the brand is known for.
Plus, with hundreds of fabric options and power features, you can customize a piece that fits both your body and your style.
Ashley Furniture: Soft Touches, Everyday Style
If you’re looking for furniture that balances comfort with a touch of style, Ashley is right on trend. Their newest living room collections feature:
-Gently rounded accent chairs
-Ottomans with soft, curved edges
-Sofas with pillow-top arms and relaxed silhouettes
These aren’t just trend pieces—they’re designed to stand up to everyday life, whether you're hosting for the holidays or just enjoying a quiet night in.
Textures That Warm Up Your Space
Curves aren’t the only thing cozying up living rooms this season. Soft, touchable textures are also making a big impact.
At Godwin’s, you’ll find sofas and chairs in:
-Chenille and velvet for a plush, elevated look
-Bouclé-inspired weaves that add a bit of texture without feeling too trendy
-Durable, family-friendly fabrics that feel soft but are made to last
Pair your furniture with a chunky knit throw, layered pillows, and a round wood or fabric ottoman to bring the whole look together.
Make It Yours—Without a Full Makeover
You don’t need to redo your whole living room to bring in this trend. Here are a few easy ways to add softness to your space:
1. Swap in a rounded accent chair to create a cozy corner.
2. Choose an ottoman or coffee table with soft edges—great for homes with little ones, too!
3. Add pillows or throws in boucle or velvet to update your current sofa.
4. Look for a new La-Z-Boy or Ashley sofa with curved arms or pillowy cushions.
