Over time, the sofa upholstery loses its original appearance, becoming unaesthetic and nondescript.

That is why the question of choosing new upholstery arises. There are many of them now, but it is better to give preference to a practical, wear-resistant material.

Yulia Tychino, an expert of the MOS SMI portal in the field of design and architecture, will tell you which upholstery material is best to choose.

Genuine Leather

This material is durable and pleasant to the touch. In addition, it looks expensive and tasteful.

A cheaper option is fabric. It is easy to care for, has a wide range of colors, but the downside is that it wears out quickly.

Faux leather

If you are a fan of genuine leather, but you do not have the means for this material, then it is better to give preference to genuine leather. It is easy to care for, it is not afraid of dirt, but over time this material may lose its appearance.

Thus, there is currently a huge selection of materials. It is better to choose them taking into account all the advantages and disadvantages.
