The PAOLA embodies the meeting of contemporary elegance with everyday practicality. Designed for interiors that refuse to compromise between aesthetics and functionality, the PAOLA is one of the flagship collections at Kings Canapé: 9 models available in several dimensions and configurations to suit every room, from a compact studio to a large family living room. This page guides you through the full range, its features and highlights, and helps you choose the PAOLA that truly fits your living room.
Paola Kings Canapé: a complete and modular collection
The Paola collection was designed to meet a simple yet demanding brief: to offer a contemporary, comfortable and durable sofa, available in multiple configurations. Each PAOLA model follows the same logic: shared design guidelines (refined elegance, generous seating, a choice of coverings), but adapted to different uses and spaces.
With 9 references, the PAOLA range spans 184–364 cm in width depending on the version, covering a very wide spectrum of rooms. The common thread: a contemporary look, carefully selected materials, and craftsmanship that favours durability over time.
Configurations available in the Paola range
The PAOLA collection is available in several configurations to suit every room and every use. Here is what you will find at Kings Canapé.
- 5 panoramic sofas: in U-shape or extended L-shape, they structure a large living room and seat 5 to 7 people. Ideal for large families or open-plan spaces.
- 4 corner sofas: with left or right chaise (or reversible depending on the model), they define a comfortable TV corner and offer a prime spot to stretch out.
- 0 straight sofa: for long, narrow rooms or paired compositions with an armchair.
- 0 recliner versions: with integrated electric recliner, adjustable backrest and footrest for absolute relaxation.
- Convertible: most PAOLA models are convertible, with occasional or daily sleeping depending on the chosen mechanism.
Technical strengths of the Paola collection
Beyond the variety of configurations, the PAOLA stands out for a series of technical features that make it a safe bet in the Kings Canapé catalogue.
Frame and seating
All PAOLA models share the same manufacturing fundamentals: solid wood or high-density panel frame, high-resilience polyether foam (HR 35–40 kg/m³) for the seat, and cross-woven elastic straps for support. The result: a sofa that holds its comfort beyond 7 years of daily use.
Covering and customisation
The PAOLA collection is available in a wide choice of coverings: microfibre fabric, velvet, bouclé, leather, faux leather. This variety lets you adapt the Paola to every decorative style, from Scandinavian minimalism to warm bohemian or understated contemporary.
Mechanisms and comfort
Depending on the version chosen, the PAOLA includes: a convertible bed with metal slat or grid frame, electric recliner with 1 or 2 motors, storage chest in the chaise, adjustable armrests or an adjustable headrest. Each option answers a specific use, and Kings Canapé helps you identify the most relevant combination.
Which Paola for your room?
Choosing a PAOLA model depends first and foremost on your room and your lifestyle. Here are the key questions to ask yourself.
What size is your room?
For a living room of less than 18 m², favour compact models (L184 cm) that fit into tight spaces without overwhelming the room. For a standard 20–30 m² living room, most PAOLAs (around L250 cm) find their place. For a large living room over 35 m², the panoramic versions (up to L364 cm) will structure the space with authority.
What is the main use?
Daily TV and relaxation use: all PAOLA versions are suitable — choose by size. Family use with frequent guest sleeping: convertible versions with an HR 14 cm or 18 cm mattress are ideal. Entertaining: panoramic U-shapes seat 6 to 8 people and structure a conversation area. Home cinema use: versions with deep seating and dark colours should be preferred.
Which decorative style?
The PAOLA fits into every interior thanks to the variety of its coverings. For a Scandinavian style, choose a light grey or beige microfibre fabric. For a Turkish or oriental style, go for deep velvet. For a boldly modern look, leather or matte black faux leather brings the desired character.
What is the difference between the Paola I, II, III, IV… models?
You will notice that the PAOLA references are numbered with Roman numerals (I, II, III, IV…). This numbering corresponds to distinct configurations and dimensions within the same collection. The usual logic is as follows.
Paola I: entry-level format, generally the most compact (often a 3-seater corner convertible). It is the reference model for discovering the collection.
Paola II: a slightly larger version (often 4-seater), sometimes with an extra option (storage chest, adjustable armrest).
Paola III, IV, V: intermediate formats, increasing in size and features.
Paola VI to XII: high-end versions, panoramic, or with advanced options (recliner, sliding seat, integrated USB ports).
Paola Relax: a specific variant with a 1- or 2-motor electric recliner mechanism.
Caring for your Paola sofa
A well-maintained PAOLA sofa keeps its comfort and appearance for 10 years and more. Here are the essential steps.
Vacuum every week with a soft brush attachment, following the nap then against it for velvet. Treat any stain immediately with a damp cloth — do not rub, dab to absorb. Rotate the seat cushions every 3 months to spread wear evenly. For stain-treated fabrics, a quick wipe with a damp sponge is usually enough.
For electric recliner versions, check the mechanism and cables once a year. For convertible versions, unfold the bed every 2 months to air the mechanism.
Frequently asked questions about the Paola collection
How much does a Paola sofa cost?
PAOLA collection prices vary depending on the size, configuration and covering chosen. Compact models start around €1,500 for a 3-seater corner convertible, and panoramic versions can reach €4,500 and more for XXL configurations with recliner and storage options. Each product on this page shows its exact price; you can filter by budget in the sidebar.
What size Paola for my living room?
First, measure the surface of your living room. For less than 18 m², choose a compact PAOLA (L184-{int(DIM_MIN*1.3)} cm). For 20–30 m², a medium size (L{int(DIM_MIN*1.4)}-{int(DIM_MAX*0.7)} cm) works well. For over 35 m², you can consider the panoramic versions (L364 cm). Also think about circulation: leave at least 90 cm between the sofa and the other furniture.
Is the Paola convertible?
Most PAOLA references are convertible, with occasional or daily sleeping depending on the mechanism. The standard sleeping area is 140x190 cm for 3–4 seater versions, and 160x200 cm for panoramic versions. For daily sleeping use, choose an HR 14 cm or 18 cm mechanism mattress.
Which covering should I choose for a Paola?
The microfibre fabric remains the most versatile choice: soft to the touch, stain-resistant, easy to maintain. Velvet brings a chic and warm touch, but requires more attention to maintenance. Bouclé is ideal for a cocooning atmosphere. Leather or faux leather signs a design-led and resistant interior. For families with children or pets, stain-resistant treatment is a real plus.
Is the Paola available with an electric recliner?
Yes, the PAOLA Relax version offers an integrated electric recliner mechanism, usually with 1 or 2 motors (adjustable backrest, deployable footrest). The price is higher than the standard version, but the comfort is unmatched for relaxation lovers. The dedicated collection for recliner versions lists 0 references in this category.
