MODERN TUFTED SOFA DEFINED

August 6, 2014
  • Share
Living room with grey tufted sofa and decorative molding

Interested to know what you think of the modern tufted sofa with tufting all over it.  Modern lines, classic upholstering technique all amped up for the year 2014. Full on tufting on a sofa.

Love this first living room above created by interior designer Casey Debois of Debois Design!  The neutral off white tufted sofa completes the look.

Tufting of furniture is still on trend as it has been for years. Upholsterers thread through layers of fabric or leather, often in a pattern, and securing the ends of the thread with a knot or button. The dense clusters that this technique creates are known as “tufts.

Here’s where I stand.  I really like the look but I don’t know whether I would personally figure out away to incorporate the look into my own home.  TE…any thoughts?  I love the way a full tufted modern sofa it adds visual texture to a contemporary space.  I do love a dash of tufting in the form of a side chair, ottoman, or bench.  These sofas raise the bar…I like the look!

All of the sofas here are off white or beige…I think this could be great in a dark blue velvet or a charcoal gray.

My favorite of the sofas above is of course the Jonathan Adler…that marries mid century lines with classic technique.

What do you think?

Happy Wednesday!

P.S.  Fab dinner last night for intern JRH.  Her mom JH made Korean barbecue on the grill for us all at their home in the Hollywood Hills.  We sat under a row of lights on their beautiful brick patio and laughed with JRH, her dad and mom.  TE and I had a great time.  JH, the mom, is a great hostess.  Wishing JRH a fabulous senior year at University of Syracuse!  Will miss her!

A great parquet floor doesn’t just ground a room. A great parquet floor doesn’t just ground a room. It tells you everything about the history of the space. The patina, the pattern, the way light moves across it. These are the rooms that prove good bones never go out of style.
What’s your favorite parquet pattern?

Designer Emma Donnersberg took her own Paris apartment in the 7th arrondissement and used it to rewrite the rules — classical bones, contemporary everything else. Her Wave Sofa and U&Me Table anchor the living room in organic curves. In the kitchen, a green ceramic-wrapped island does the heavy lifting for color against all that neutral stone. And the dining room? A Carrara travertine fireplace that turns stone into the whole point of the room.
Curved, curated, and completely hers. 🤍

A little peek at one of my favorite outdoor spaces, which I designed years ago. The patterned tile, navy seating, white stucco, and layers of greenery make this balcony feel like a little room all its own.
I love how much personality you can create in a small outdoor space without making it feel overcrowded.
Save this for your next outdoor space refresh. 🍃

Want a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and invitingWant a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and inviting? Start with these simple changes:
1. Layer your bedding. Mix sheets, a duvet, quilts, and throw blankets to create that plush, lived-in look.
2. Add warm lighting. Swap harsh overhead lighting for bedside lamps, sconces, or a statement light with a warm glow.
3. Bring in plenty of texture. Think linen, velvet, boucle, chunky knits, and soft rugs.
4. Keep the palette warm and calming. Soft neutrals, earthy tones, and muted colors instantly make a room feel more restful.
5. Mix in natural materials. Wood, rattan, woven accents, and stone add warmth and character.
6. Make the walls feel personal. Art, photographs, or even a statement headboard can make the room feel more finished.
7. Add something organic. A vase of branches, fresh flowers, or a little greenery can bring the room to life.
The goal isn’t to make your bedroom perfect. It’s to make it feel like a place you actually want to retreat to at the end of the day.
Save this for your next bedroom refresh. 🤎

The right chandelier doesn’t just light a room, it becomes the room. Scale, material, placement. When it’s done right, everything else arranges itself around it.
