Searching for Harry Potter like sofas
I'm trying to find sofa's and armchairs similar to the ones used in the student common room in the Harry Potter films. Does anyone know if that style has a specific design name? The sofas have the look of worn, loose, red velvet and are low to the ground. I'm not necessarily looking for the worn/used look. But something with similar upholstery would be a great start.

Not sure if the sofa has specific design name. It seems to simply be a rolled arm sofa with a low back. Removing the loose back cushions completely, or replacing with a long, low, single pillow (like a "body pillow") can help keep that very low back profile.
Usually in leather, but are making a come back upholstered. The ones you posted a link to have a throw over them, but Chesterfields have deep buttoning along the back and a very firm low back.
"loose look" you want to have the sofa slipcovered specifying that the seat cushion should not have a separate cover (that way you will get the draped looked without the usually visual of a separate seat cushion
