Furniture Friday: Slipcovered Sofas
This edition of Furniture Friday is a little bit self-serving. I’ve been looking for a new sofa for…ev…er… and I know I can’t be alone. I think this piece of furniture has to be one of the hardest. Even though I truly agree with Celerie Kemble who basically said: the sofa is like the potatoes, you wouldn’t build a whole meal around a starch, so why build your whole room around a sofa?! Okay, I butchered the quote but my point is, the sofa must still must live up to a lot of expectations. Timeless, durable, comfortable, washable, the list goes on and on. My search for the perfect slipcovered sofa is not over, but I thought I’d share the different styles that I’ve found.
Contemporary with Graphic Touches:
Ondine from Top Design used a similar (non slipped) sofa from Plantation in one of her rooms. I would love to use this in a black and white room. This is the “Contemporary” sofa from Quatrine.
“New Contemporary” also from Quatrine gets its punch from contrasting piping.
Blocky:
Pottery Barn’s Square Grand Slipcovered Sofa
PB’s Jackson Sofa
Clean Lined with Scooped
Arms:
Best Slipcover Company’s “Charles” Sofa…I love this one!
“Grace” by Quatrine
Charlotte by MG+BW (who, BTW, is having 20% off custom upholstery orders right now)
Traditional:
I have a weakness for English Rolled Arms…this is a new sofa from Restoration Hardware.
The fabulous, Windsor Smith’s slipcovered sofa.
A sofa from Lee Industries, they have the most comfortable eco -friendly sofas, I hope to own one.
Pottery Barn’s Comfort Grand Sofa, I like that you have the option for a box cushion back.
Tuxedo:
I really like this one from Quatrine, it’s simple but still has a little pizzazz!
I’m positive this sofa is by Lee, but I actually found it here.
“Luzerne” from the new, Bernhardt Interiors line.
