Decorative corner sofa – how to choose for different interior styles?
A decorative corner is known as decor mounted in the corner of a frame made of stucco strips. Once richly decorated, it significantly influenced the final appearance of the arrangement, adding elegance to it. Nowadays, however, it has lost its popularity, and in our opinion, completely unjustly.
Decorative corners undoubtedly make the room unique. Modern models are available in various versions, so you can easily match their dimensions and shape to the appearance and style of the interior. In addition, decorative corners are not only used to decorate walls, they are also functional interior elements.

Decorative corners
Corners are decorative elements used as an addition to stucco screens. They are mounted at the joint of the strips, constituting a small but expressive decorative element. However, decoration is not their only function. Decorative corners create aesthetic and smooth transitions at the joints between the strips, significantly speeding up the installation process because they eliminate the need to cut wall profiles at an angle of 45 degrees and then mask the joints. This solution isn’t essential, but it’s definitely worth considering.
The use of decorative corners allows you to select decorative elements that are most consistent with the style of the room – various patterns, shapes and types of decorations are available. Thanks to this, you can easily adjust the corner sofas to the selected arrangement, which makes them not only practical, but also very decorative elements.
Wall corner – corner strip
Corner strips are intended for vertical installation, most often along wall corners at an angle of 45 degrees. Their main function is to protect wall corners against mechanical damage, such as impacts from a vacuum cleaner or abrasions. We most often find traditional angles in this role, but dedicated stucco strips (wall corners) will also work perfectly, as they will not only effectively protect the wall, but will also become an aesthetic decorative element of the interior.
Corner strips can take the form of a simple, minimalist strip or a more decorative form, which allows them to be adapted to the architecture of a given room. These wall decorations will be perfect for any arrangement, adding elegance and character to the interior.

How to match decorative corners to the overall appearance of the room and its style?
Matching decorative corner sofas to the overall appearance of the room depends on the way the interior is finished, the style it refers to, the dominant elements and the effect we want to achieve. Glossy fronts and marble surfaces suggest elegant interiors in a glamorous or French style. The combination of white and blue, wide, comfortable armchairs and crystal accessories are the characteristic features of the Hamptons style. However, simple wooden furniture, minimalism and posters on the walls are typical elements of the modern style.
In a modern style, stucco corners and strips should have simple, minimalist forms. Geometric shapes and smooth surfaces without unnecessary decorations will work best. Such details will bring elegant simplicity to the interior and will harmonize harmoniously with modern furniture.
Glamorous and French styles require more decorative and refined elements. Glamorous corners and strips should have rich ornaments, subtle decorations and elegant shapes. Delicate arches, acanthus and other plant motifs perfectly reflect the luxurious character of these interiors. This type of details add sophistication to the rooms and emphasize their elegant finish.
The Hamptons style values subtlety and lightness. Corners and strips should refer to the maritime atmosphere and casual luxury of this style. Delicate ornaments, gently rounded shapes and simplicity are ideal here. Motifs inspired by nature, such as delicate waves or floral patterns, can bring freshness and elegance, while maintaining the ease typical of the Hamptons style.
