The feel matters as much as the shape

Make it feel
like your sofa.

Describe how you sit, the support you prefer and the way the room is used. Those details make the conversation about comfort much more useful.

Woven sofa fabric and piping in close detail

Seat depth & height

Try sitting as you normally would. Think about feet reaching the floor, support behind your knees, and whether you like to sit upright or curl up.

Cushion support

Discuss the feel, filling choices and maintenance of the cushions available for your design. Ask to compare examples rather than relying on “soft” or “firm” alone.

Arms & backs

Arm shape, back height and cushion divisions change both the outline and the way you use the sofa.

Choosing upholstery

Look at it.
Feel it.
Take it into your light.

Screens and showroom lighting can change how a colour appears. Ask about physical fabric or leather samples to compare the options in your own light.

  • Ask for the exact fabric or leather and colour reference.
  • Compare texture, pattern and the direction the fabric will run.
  • Explain pets, children, frequent use or other practical needs.
  • Ask about removable or reversible elements for the specific design.
  • Keep the material-specific care instructions with your order details.

Use the cleaning guidance for the exact upholstery. Avoid applying a general cleaning recipe or product without checking it is suitable.

From a screen to your room

Choose with your eyes. Confirm with your hands.

Start with the way you live

Tell us about children, pets, everyday use and how you like fabric to feel. Use texture and colour filters to find ideas, then ask about the suitability and care of the exact material.

A colour label or photograph cannot tell you whether a fabric will suit a particular use.

Compare in your own light

Put samples beside the floor, curtains and furniture that will stay. Look at them in daylight and under your evening lighting. Turn the sample to see how a textured surface catches the light.

Screen colour is a guide. Keep the supplier, range and colour reference with each favourite.

Confirm the finish and price

Choosing a fabric does not automatically confirm its price band. We’ll check that reference before your quotation is final. Leather guide prices cover most ranges; your chosen leather and any exception are confirmed with you.

Ask about care instructions, pattern direction and how the material will look across cushions and seams.
