"Space may be at a premium in some homes, but comfort is still essential. Enter the settee: About one third smaller than a standard-issue sofa, this upholstered piece typically accommodates two people, which accounts for its sometimes being called a love seat. It can fit into tight spots with ease, but is valuable in large rooms too. &amp;quot;If you already have a main seating area, a settee could be part of a secondary grouping where there isn&amp;#039;t enough room for a bulky sofa or a pair of chairs,&amp;quot; says interior designer Thom Filicia, host of the Style Network&amp;#039;s Dress My Nest. Alexa Hampton, head of Mark Hampton, the renowned design firm founded by her late father, agrees, and calls it &amp;quot;a building block for most rooms, because of its versatility.&amp;quot;  A pair of shallow settees could provide a welcoming anchor for an entrance hall, or one can be placed at the foot of a bed for reading or putting on shoes. A settee arranged with a couple of chairs and a table is a breakfast nook waiting to happen, while two placed back-to-back, with a table in between, expands the seating possibilities in a small living room.
