The buzz about curved couches and Japandi design started a couple of years ago and according to Vogue, Finnish Design Shop, Food52, The Spruce, and every single interior design publication, this is their year! Of course, there are other decor trends, butJapandi and curved sofas are my favorite. I am a minimalist at heart, but I lived in a wooden cabin in the mountains, so the Scandi style always felt too cold for me. Likewise for the sleek square modern sofas. I need comfort and peace of mind when I’m home and the Japandi speaks to me in the intentional aspect of furniture and decor. I identify with the use of natural materials and durable craftsmanship and also with the idea that our home is our sanctuary, where we relax, recharge, and reconnect with ourselves. And I feel like modern curved sofas are the “wabi-sabi” piece of furniture that ties it together.

Of course, curved sofas are a match for different styles, but this is an appreciation post to the combination between circular geometry and the intentional minimal-organic aesthetic. So, in this post, you’ll find the best modern curved sofas in accordance with the Japandi philosophy and aesthetic. I made vast research and a thorough selection of modern curved sofas with high-quality materials, including sustainable and natural fabrics options. Also, comfortable, cozy, and in neutral colors to be the centerpiece for your zen sanctuary. And because I hope you get as obsessed as I am, I picked the most beautiful and inspiring ideas of Japandi design using modern curved couches.

Modern Modular Corner Sofa With Tufted Curved Arms

Linen is one of the noblest and most sustainable fabrics out there. The production chain uses minimin water and undyed linen is highly biodegradable, so won’t stay in landfills for centuries. Also, it’s very resistent and for being a natural long fiber, the more you abuse it, the softer it gets.

But what Soho Home did with this linen sofa is on a different level of sophisticated design. The wrap-around arms, tufted back, corner seater, and cylindrical legs give it a cozy and low-profile aesthetic, but with a luxurious feel. To top it off it’s extremely comfortable due to the foam, and feather/down filling.

So, what’s your take on modern curved sofas? Are all in for your next revamp or still not sure if you can pull the curves? My fiance has a round couch in his living room and I dislike it to the point of developing an allergy to it. It makes me itchy every time I seat/lay on it. And I cleaned it a gazillion times to make sure it was an emotional reaction. But it’s a round sofa, very bulky, definitely not my style. On the other hand, a modern curved sofa, like the Ether or the Ellipse speaks directly to my minimalist, but huggable heart.

    Could the Rico Divan one also be considered a chaise lounge? Or is it too long? Reminds me of an antique one I had in my room growing up.

      Talk about a nice room you grew up in! I wouldn’t consider the Rico a chaise lounge. It’s a gorgeous unique curved sofa. But if you have enough space (the Rico Divan is indeed larger than standard chaises), you can definitely use it as a chic chaise, after all, your house, your rules. 😉
