Based on your brief, I pulled together a selection of sofas that all lean into that softer curved direction you were after, but each in a slightly different way.
Some feel more architectural and minimal, while others are more cocooning and relaxed, but all of them keep that visually lighter, lower profile that works beautifully in contemporary spaces. I also focused on silhouettes that feel sculptural without becoming overly statement or bulky, especially within your 2 metre limit.
Hopefully this feels like a good starting point and helps narrow down the kind of silhouette and overall feeling you’re most drawn to for the space.
Westwing Collection
Sofa Alba 2-Seater in Velvety Woven Fabric Dark Brown
This option felt very aligned with your brief because of its softer curved silhouette and lower profile. The shape feels contemporary, and I particularly like how the rounded edges soften a room visually while still keeping the overall look minimal.
I could especially see this styled with a sculptural coffee table, softer textured rugs, and warmer wood tones to lean further into that relaxed contemporary feel.
Holloways of Ludlow
Kartell Lunam Sofa Orsetto
This feels slightly more playful and design-led while still remaining minimal overall. The rounded form and lower backrest create a softer and more inviting silhouette, but what I particularly like is the visual lightness the legs bring to the piece.
Because the sofa is lifted off the floor, it feels much less bulky despite the curved shape, which works well in contemporary spaces where you still want softness without the room feeling visually heavy. I think this works especially well styled with sculptural lighting, cleaner coffee tables (maybe a plinth), and more tonal textures where the silhouette can really stand out.
Ferm Living
Ferm Living Rico 3 Seater Sofa
I still wanted to include the Rico sofa despite it measuring 210cm, as I think it captures the softer sculptural direction of your brief very well.
Although it exceeds your maximum length slightly, the organic shape and visual softness prevent it from feeling bulky or dominant within a room. If you’re open to stretching the dimensions marginally, this is a really beautiful example of how curved seating can still feel calm and architectural at the same time.

Ligne Roset Pukka 2+ Seater Sofa
This was probably the closest interpretation of your brief in terms of shape and overall feeling. The silhouette is incredibly soft and minimal, but the curved form gives it a strong sculptural presence without needing any additional detailing.
What I especially like is that the curvature comes more from the overall frame and proportions rather than exaggerated shaping, which keeps it feeling timeless and very refined within a contemporary space.
