February 2025 – Your Go‑to Guides from Marvin Bucknell Interiors

We crammed February with practical advice and fresh ideas for every room. Whether you’re hunting a comfy office chair, picking a sofa that never goes out of style, or figuring out if a 65‑inch TV really fits your wall, you’ll find a quick, helpful read here.

Furniture & Seating Guides

Choosing an office chair isn’t just about looks. Our guide breaks down ergonomics, lumbar support, adjustability and material so you can spot the chair that keeps you productive without sore back. If you’re bored of the classic office throne, check out alternatives like exercise balls or kneeling chairs that add movement and comfort to your workday.

When it comes to sofas, colour matters more than trend. We explain why neutral shades – grey, beige, navy – stay fresh season after season. Pair them with a few colourful cushions or throws and you can switch up the vibe without buying a new couch.

Sleeping on the couch? It’s okay occasionally, but we outline the health impacts and give tips to improve posture, cushion support and bedtime routine. You’ll know when it’s time to move back to a proper bed.

Design Inspiration & Essentials

TV sizing can be confusing. Our deep dive shows how diagonal measurements work, why a 65‑inch label might not match your space, and how to pick the right stand. No more guessing – you’ll fit the screen perfectly.

Wardrobes vs. closets – a quick cultural note for anyone moving between the UK and the US. Learn the terminology and get smart storage ideas that work in any home.

We also spotlight top modern interior designers, sharing their signature styles and how you can borrow their tricks for your own makeover. From sleek minimalism to bold textures, there’s a tip for every taste.

Finally, we answer the age‑old question: how many cushions should a sofa have? We give a simple formula and visual cue so you can strike the right balance between comfort and look.
