The sofa trend of statement pieces with bold colors has been around in stylish homes and on design accounts on Instagram for a while now. While there’s certainly nothing wrong with a luxurious velvet fabric couch in rich jewel tones like sapphire blue or emerald green, you’ll probably see more tan leather than ocean blue in 2021. Where brown leather couches used to be relegated to man caves, they are seeing a stylish comeback with fashionable designs popular on Instagram.
Here are a few ideas for rich, buttery leather couches in a variety of tan, caramel and brown tones that will go with almost any sense of style and design to add a touch of class to your Houston, MO home.
Safari-style sofas
Popular with designers and celebrities on Instagram, you’re bound to see more of this safari-style brown leather sofa trend in 2021. Usually made with tan leather, the safari-style sofa typically features an exposed natural wood frame that supports slouchy, soft leather cushions that sometimes buckle or tie on the sides. The look comes off as both retro and exotic—at home with both midcentury-style furniture and Southwestern décor and cowhide rugs.
This style of tan leather sofa would be a dream find at a resale shop or flea market, but you can also find brand-new versions at area furniture stores in the Houston, MO area.
Low-slung and comfy
The paler, more worn colors of brown and tan that are popular for leather couches in 2021 are perfectly suited to this relaxed design style. Low-slung and slouchy tan leather couches look like the perfect places to collapse after a long day on the range. Unlike the stiff, squeaky black leather couches you might think of from the 1990s, these beaten-up trendy sofas usually feature a soft, buttery and comfortable patina that make the furniture look like an heirloom inherited from a cowboy uncle.
If you want a low-slung, relaxed style like this, look for a nice caramel-colored leather and pair it with unique printed pillows in bright colors. It’s a perfect boho look for a modern but comfortable living space.
Tufted and traditional
If you want a little more support than the slouchy leather cushions on some of the low-slung sofas out there, you should opt for a sofa that is tufted. You can find extremely comfortable, low and deep sofas with more structured, tufted backs. A sofa with a classic tufted Chesterfield silhouette also looks great in rich brown leather.
Midcentury modern
Brown leather will make a seamless entry to any space designed in the ubiquitously popular midcentury modern style. Tall wooden legs on a rich taupe or caramel brown sofa look just right both in smaller sizes and with gigantic proportions.
