    Modular Sectional Sofas

    Modular Sectional Sofa have captured a lot of interest in the past few years, and this trend is only set to grow in 2025. Why? Beacuese people are paying more attention to making the most of their indoor space. They need furniture that is economical, multifunctional, and flexible for their home—and that’s exactly what modular sofas are all about.

    Modular Sectional sofas are made up of individual seat modules, which can be arranged into a sectional in different layouts. This feature makes them incredibly versatile:

    Modular Sectional Sofas For Small Spaces

    For smaller spaces, modular sectional sofas can be tailored to fit perfectly. Unlike traditional sofas, they can be arranged in compact shapes like an L-shape. Plus, if your room layout changes often, modular sectional sofas allow for easy rearranging to suit your needs.

    Modular Sectional Sofas For Large Spaces

    In larger spaces, you can add as many modules as you want to create a bold focal point. Many modular sectional sofas come with different types of modules, some of which even allow you to remove or adjust armrests and backrests.

    It’s worth noting that the modularity and flexibility of modular sectional sofas allows you to divide rooms into multi-functional spaces. For example, a long bench can serve as a sofa bed for a quick nap during the day and as a TV sofa in the evening. You can even create a home office on one side and an informal living area on the other by installing a series of backrests in the middle of the sofa.

    Washable Sofas

    It’s a busy world. A video on YouTube telling people how to speed clean a busy home are getting 2000+ views per day. As people placing more importance on convenience, machine-washable sofa is definitely a trend in 2025.

    The days when style was the sole consideration are gone. While an upholstered sofa can make your living room look luxurious, keeping it clean is another story. It usually involves special detergents, a vacuum, or even a steam cleaner. Also, upholstery gets damaged easily if you don’t handle it properly.

    Washable sofas can save you from such hassle. They usually come with removable covers that can be hand-washed or machine-washed. Also, since the covers can be removed and replaced, you can simply change the sofa cover instead of purchasing a new sofa if you want to give your room a new look.

    Overall, washable sofas are more convenient and economical compared to traditional upholstered sofas. Of course, you should always pay attention to the fabric label and care instructions before buying a washable sofa. After all, you won’t want to fall into pits like mistaking a hand-washable sofa for a machine-washable one.

    Cloud Sofa

    “Cloud sofa” — this term may be confusing. When you first see it, you might wonder what it really stands for: What is a cloud sofa? Is it a sofa with white color like clouds? Or is it a sofa crafted in the shape of a piece of cloud?

    Despite the confusion, cloud sofa is indeed a sofa trend in the past few years. Based on our study of the market, we believe that most customers searching for “cloud sofas” are actually looking for sofas that offer cloud-like comfort. This is also the very standard we at Atunus Home currently use to determine whether a sofa should be classified as a cloud sofa.

    So what makes a sofa a “cloud sofa”? Different people may comprehend “cloud-like comfort” differently. Therefore, we can’t give you a standard answer. However, we can share with you the secret formula from Atunus Home: a layered cushion filling made of 50% high-resilience foam, 30% down feathers, and 20% cotton. This golden formula has been developed through extensive testing by over 100 experts and 3 product upgrades based on customer feedback. With this filling composition, Atunus Home’s Cloud Sofa offers enveloping comfort while maintaining its shape without sagging, ensuring the sofa has a longer lifespan and will accompany your home for many years to come.

    Pet-Friendly Sofa

    According to the 2024 APPA National Pet Owners Survey as cited in APPA’s State of the Industry Report, 82 million U.S. households own a pet. No wonder pet-friendly sofa is trending in 2025.

    If you own a pet, maintaining your sofa while having your furry friend around isn’t easy. Some cats and dogs like scratching on the sofa. Also, pet hair can be trapped on certain fabrics easily. Therefore, it is suggested that pet owners buy a pet-friendly sofa.

    A pet-friendly sofa usually has fabric like velvet, frosted fleece or leather for sofa cover. Thanks to their structures, these fabrics not only resist pet-scratches well, but also are fur-resistant. So they are easy to clean.

    Ergonomic Sofa

    Ergonomic Sofa is a growing trend in 2025. As working from home continues to affect our daily lives, whether the sofa in our house has an ergonomic design is getting more and more important. Poorly designed sofas that lack proper lumbar support or make you sit in the wrong sitting positions can lead to injuries to your neck, back, and waist.

    So what makes an ergonomic sofa truly “ergonomic”? Usuallly, an ergonomic sofa should provide proper lower back support and encourage you to sit in a healthy sitting position. This can be achieved in different ways.

    Bubble Armless Sofa Ergonomic Desgin

    One option is a sofa with a curved design that follows your spine's natural shape, like the Bubble Armless Sofa. This kind of sofas provides proper lower back support while evenly distributing pressure across your back.

    Sky Cloud Deluxe Adjustable Backrest Sofa

    Another option is a sofa with an adjustable backrest, like the Sky Cloud Deluxe Adjustable Sofa. You can set the backrest at the angle that feels best for you, so you won’t slouch or lean too far back.

    Based on the standard of the correct sitting posture above, we can infer what an ergonomic sofa should look like: It should be able to provide you with proper back support with an adjustable backrest pillow or a backrest with a proper curve that won’t cause your hips to bend more than 60 degrees. Its seat should be at an angle that allows you to keep your hips and knees at 90 degrees. Furthermore, the sofa should feature a seat height that lets you place your feet flat on the ground.
