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!

Before you start moving furniture, ask yourself thBefore you start moving furniture, ask yourself these three questions:
Does this improve the room’s function?
Does it create a better focal point?
Does it make the space easier to walk through?
If the answer is “no” to all three, maybe it’s just the rearranging itch talking. 😅
Save this for the next time you’re tempted to move every piece of furniture in your house.
Watch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? TWatch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? They are on sale...not sure.
Summer sale season is here, and we are not holding back. 👏
This is the time of year to finally grab those pieces you’ve been eyeing all season. The good news? Major markdowns are happening right now across some of the best brands.
Our tip: Shop with intention. Know your palette, know your fit, and choose pieces that work with what you already own, not just because they’re on sale.
We’ve already done the hard work and created a Summer Sale Shopping Board filled with our favorite finds. A Shopping Board is like your own storefront. It’s a curated collection of products you can shop yourself or share with others to earn when they purchase through your links.
✨ Want to make it yours?
Comment SALE and we’ll send you the link. Then just tap “Add This Board” to save it to your Chirpyest account.
Or grab the link here 👉 https://www.chirpyest.com/s/cocoedit/summer-sale-2026/2071?mode=share
From there, you can shop the collection, share it with your audience, earn from your recommendations, and get cashback on your own purchases. 💛
This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤
