Curved sofas named top interior design trend of 2026, replacing corner models

Curved sofas have been named the main interior design trend of 2026, replacing the long-popular L-shaped corner sofas, according to a report by Oeste Geral. The new furniture style combines soft forms, comfort, and planning freedom, as curved sofas do not need to be placed against a wall and work well in the center of a room to create a conversation area. The absence of sharp corners also visually softens transitions between different zones. Modular systems are another growing trend, allowing users to combine elements and change configurations. The report notes that L-shaped models have not disappeared, but interior design priorities have shifted.
