Q. I am “this close” to being able to order my couch. I have narrowed down the fabric choice, but now I’m trying to decide: arms or no arms? Can you show me a picture of an armless LB, in something other than a sectional? If I go with arms, it will be Tux or Bay, but I am doing a modern space and think I might really like the armless as well. Which do you suggest in a design that is a mix of modern and Scandinavian/Dansk?

A. Sounds like a fun decor scheme you’re creating in your home, Stephanie! We’re glad to hear you found a fabric that you like. Here is a picture of an Armless LB loveseat as well as an Armless TB couch.

Casey and I consider the armless styles to be our most modern. However, the Tux and Ali are among the most modern of our “armed” styles and fit beautifully into contemporary decor schemes with the right fabric and accessories.

I consider the Tux and Ali styles best for lounging, so I recommend this route if the couch will be the primary seating in your room. If it is not, and you are most concerned with design unity, go with the armelss.

A comforting note . . . the Tux or Bay arms can be added or removed easily. When arms are taken off, the style can be converted to armless with the addition of 2 end panels. (These are the half moon shapes you see on the ends of our armless styles.) You can move from one look to the other if you ever change your mind!
