Although things don&#8217;t have to match these days, it&#8217;s nice to keep pieces in a good proportional relationship to each other. There are some clever ways to disguise different heights with artwork or the placement of furniture in relation to windows. You do want everyone to be comfortable having conversations, though, so you may want to steer away from drastic differences in seating heights.<\/p>\n<p>Here are three of the low and lovely sofas now showing at Toms-Price. None of these go to low extremes and would be easy to blend with other pieces you have. <strong>Top:<\/strong> The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomsprice.com\/wesley-hall-monroe-sofa\/1948-78-16\/iteminformation.aspx\">Monroe sofa<\/a> by Wesley Hall with wide kidney pillows and a tufted back. <strong>Middle:<\/strong> The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomsprice.com\/vanguard-newlin-sofa\/655-2s-0\/iteminformation.aspx\">Newlin sofa<\/a> by Vanguard which provides casual comfort in a two-seated sofa. <strong>Bottom:<\/strong> The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomsprice.com\/stickley-vero-mid-sofa\/cl-8086-80-998\/iteminformation.aspx\">Vero sofa<\/a> by Stickley in a buttery-soft leather.<\/p>\n<p>We invite you to stop by a Toms-Price store and try out different seat heights to see which is most comfortable for you.
