Whether you live in a characterful Nantwich cottage with distinct, cosy rooms or a more contemporary house with a fluid layout, the way you "zone" your furniture determines how a home feels. At Webb House Furnishers, we believe that great furniture should do more than just look good; it should define the purpose of a space.

From the curated collections at our Mill Street showroom to the contemporary inspirations at Pepper Street, here is how to use occasional furniture, rugs, and premium brands to bring structure and style to your home this season.

Create a Room Within a Room with a luxury rugs.  In an open plan home, a rug is the ultimate anchor and without one, furniture can look like it’s floating in the middle of the room. 

In-Store Tip: Visit us to see our latest rug arrivals displayed beautifully in our rug room. By placing a large scale rug under your sofa and coffee table, you instantly signal that this is the relaxation zone, separate from the dining or kitchen area. 

The Look: Choose textures that contrast with your flooring - think plush piles for hardwood floors add immediate warmth and definition. You could add a vibrant colour for immediate focal point too! 

A well placed large rug under a sofa can even alter the size perception of a room really encouraging a large, airy feel. 

A rug, well chosen and well placed really can transform the feel of a room at the fraction of a price of a new suite, new carpet or a fresh paint job!

That really is ... clever maths!

Define Boundaries with Occasional Furniture:  Occasional pieces are the secret weapon of interior design. They bridge the gaps between larger items and provide functional boundaries without the need for walls.

 The Console Table: Placed behind a free standing sofa for example, a sleek console table creates a hallway feel in a large room, offering a place for lighting and décor while acting as a stylish partition. 

Shelving & Storage: Across both our Pepper Street and Mill Street stores, you’ll find premium cabinetry and shelving. These aren't just for storage; they are visual markers that tell the eye where one activity ends and another begins.

A defining refresh without a huge outlay of cost or reconfiguring your entire home!

Sometimes a room needs a zone within a zone, a quiet corner to read or a conversational spot away from the TV. Our showrooms in Mill Street and Pepper Street feature a curated mix of armchairs and snugglers that are designed to stand alone. 

The Look: Instead of a full suite, try a "pop" of texture. We have everything from buttery leathers to vibrant velvets (or perhaps a furry bean bag chair) distributed across both Mill and Pepper Street. 

The Webb House Touch: Pairing a high backed accent chair with a small marble top or oak lamp table from our occasional range instantly turns a lonely corner into a purposeful retreat. 

It’s about making every square inch of your floor plan work for you!
