11 round sofas in midcentury or postmodern style

by pam kueber

I have been continuing my overachiever sofa research. You will recall, I first featured the story, 29 places to buy an affordable midcentury style sofa or couch. Then, I did 29 midcentury style sofa sectionals and modular sofas available today. Now, I am following up with: 12 midcentury or postmodern style round sofas. For this research project, I did not worry about price, although the selection I found comes from the same list where I found “affordable” sofas, so prices should not be in the stratosphere. Heck, I don’t really even know where to buy stuff with prices in the stratosphere. Above: Round sofa from Room Service, with another photo and link below the jump…


Room Service:  This company has beautiful products and shows them off so well on their website. Above: The same round sofa, two lovely photographs, from Room Service. Link: Room Service is now Mod Shop.

Macy’s: This is the round sofa sectional that got me started thinking I should write this story. I spotted it when I was doing the sectional story. It’s fabulous looking. Link: Francesca round sofa sectional.  I also found this at Wasser Furniture; I guess you can shop around to find it.

Room and Board:  This is nice looking, 70s vibe. Linke: Hess round leather sofa sectional.

Wasser Furniture: Sexy curves. Link: American Leather Menlo Park curvy sofa sectional. 

Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams: I don’t know, this kind of reminds me of seating in an airport frequent flyer lounge; the upholstery doesn’t help, looks institutional to me. But I’ll include it. Link: The round Josie sectional.

Lazar Industries: Okay, I know these are getting lumpy and 80s looking; but, I’ve seen these shapes used effectively, especially when they are upholstered in a fun fabric. Link: 5 curvaceous sofa sectionals at Lazar Industries.

No round sofa sectionals at Blu Dot; CB2; Crate & Barrel;  Ethan Allen; EQ3; Gus Modern; Ikea; Lee Industries; Monarch Sofas; Pottery Barn; Rowe; Stressless; Thrive Home Furnishings; True Modern; Urban Outfitters; Vanguard (because they make me work way too hard on their website); West Elm; Z Gallerie.

Vintage: And don’t forget, you can always shop for vintage. Look at the supercalifragilisticexpealidocious disco sofa that Lynne found at an estate sale. Original upholstery. Happy hunting, friends!
