This sofa and chair set deserve another mention. With such a clean, spare silhouette, the tufting adds just the right amount of detail you’d want in a sofa.

Modern sofas often tout minimalist appeal, but few can also claim the comfort of Ted Boerner’s Theatre Collection (2001). The Sofa, Loveseat and Armchair are all designed to accommodate the human body with studied proportions and simple geometry. The result is comfort that stems from its form, rather than excessive layers of stuffing and upholstery. The gentle angling of the backrest, full seat depth, and elevated armrests are eminently suited to living rooms or reception areas. Boerner’s signature artisan details are evident throughout these handcrafted pieces. A gleaming chromed steel base runs the entire depth of the design, and welted seams lend strength and definition to the upholstery. A Maharam textile, Precisely is a Reduced Environmental Impact fabric for its use of optimized, ecologically sound dyes that are free of heavy metals. Precisely is produced in an ISO 14001 certified facility. Made in U.S.A.

Right now DWR has an upholstery sale going on, so if you’re in the market, you might save some dollar bills (a few hundred, in fact).

“The boxy, shelter arm design features garment-quality tailoring, with all seams serged and French topstitched for a neat, crisp appearance. The seat depth is comfortable for users of all heights and encourages various seating positions.”

The LC2 collection, which is extremely recognizable, has been known for its compact footprint and cushioned comfort. I’ve always felt that the sofa and chair were rather small, and not really real ‘lounge’ material, so I was quite surprised to see the LC3 collection with its much larger proportions (it’s like the granddaddy of all modernist sofas). This would definitely be an investment, but man, it looks comfortable.

“The Le Corbusier group referred to their LC2 and LC3 collections as “cushion baskets” which they designed in 1928 as a modernist response to the traditional club chair. With cushions held in place without being tethered to the frame, the idea was to offer all the comfort of a padded surface while applying the elegant minimalism and industrial rationale of the International Style…
The differences among the groups are that the LC2 is more compactly scaled, and the LC3 has down-wrapped cushions that create a softer look and feel…
Each piece is signed and numbered and, as a product of Cassina”s Masters Collection, is manufactured by Cassina in Italy under exclusive worldwide license from the Le Corbusier Foundation.”

There is no good substitute for a sturdy sofa that will last you a lifetime. But, those sofa’s come with price tags that you may be paying for for almost a lifetime, so if you have a smallish budget but big design ideas, you may find that this convertible sofa may suit your needs.

It’s vinyl but you can request a swatch first before you make a big commitment.

Nice reproduction of a 1960’s daybed.

Clean, modern lines. Durable steel frame, faced with rubberwood, a strong eco-friendly hardwood. Remove back cushions to convert sofa to a comfy twin-sized bed. Covers are removable for easy cleaning. Simple assembly. Imported. Spot clean. Urban exclusive.

What a great sectional for your media room. It’s available in a number of different fabrics and colors, and made in Canada.

So, this isn’t exactly something you might buy on a whim, (due to the unwieldly size and price tag) but it’s a pretty great piece if you have the space for it. It’s upholstered in leather and has two independently articulated movements on each of the four sections. This creates the ability to create a very configurable seating arrangement.

I am in love with this chair. Named for it’s ability to be a sort of “flexible love seat”, it incorporates two of my favorite things: Sustainability (made wholly from recycled paper and wood products) and configurability depending on your needs (expands to 720 cm from 22 cm).

This chair uses a honeycomb structure to expand out and can hold up to 16 people and support up to 4224 lbs. You can see it action here.
