Raya is here and it’s the time that for friends and family to gather at home. We’ve picked out some multi-functional and decorative furniture pieces that will help your guests feel more at home. See our choices of sofa bed, benches, and more!
It’s that time of year again, when ketupat, rendang, and the rest of the family squeeze into your 3-bedroom home.
While Raya food and festivities keep people happy, they don’t necessarily keep them comfortable. We scoured furniture stores for functional and stylish furniture pieces that will proof to be very useful this season:
Seating
More butts means more seats. Be prepared with this stylish leather lounger that will happily accommodate 3 extra guests without taking too much space in the living room.

If you’re thinking of replacing an old couch, go big with a 4-seater L-shaped sofa. Not only will it comfortably fit many in front of the TV, it will also serve 2 guests passed out from food comas.

Sofa Bed
Sofa beds are great for the guest bedroom. Bring them out to the living area when more seats are needed!

We’re also fans of this modular 3-seater sofa – use it for sitting or sleeping, and choose from 7 different covers!

Side Table
When you’re serving a party of 20, the coffee table just won’t do. Add side tables that double up as storage or seating.
This will sit a cousin as well as a planter.

Side tables with angled legs can be slid into the corner of your sofa, taking up less space while adding table surface.

Stool or mini table? Both, depending on what you need at the time.

Keep the kids or an antsy new boyfriend occupied and safe within your premises with a rocking chair.

Add-on Dining Chairs
Additional guests are a staple during large gatherings. Buy loose dining chairs to add to the table or the living area.
These ones are still trendy, and they come in this lovely blue.

These ones are season-appropriate green, and come in a set of 2.

Stackable chairs are a great idea, if storage space is an issue.
