The easy answer is a large sectional. Sectional sofas come in many configurations that can seat eight, ten, or twelve people – or even more. Many sectionals have a chaise lounge or reclining section.If you don’t want a single sofa that takes up most of the room, a full-size sofa along with a matching loveseat or two offers another seating option. You’ll have greater flexibility in your furniture arrangement if you purchase separate pieces.
