The Sofa & Chair Company’s new showroom is a one-stop shop for all your interiors needs, displaying pieces expertly crafted in London
When The Sofa & Chair Company was founded in 2002,
its reputation for producing high-quality, handcrafted bespoke furniture within a very short time frame quickly made it a go-to for interiors insiders. Fourteen years later, that service remains one of the pillars upon which the company is built. And the commitment behind it – to bring the best pieces to the customer in the least possible amount of time and with the minimum amount of hassle – has been incorporated into every other aspect of the business.
This is immediately apparent on a visit to its brand-new west London showroom. The impressive 10,000-squaremetre space is home to an ever-evolving collection of luxury furniture. Not just the soft furnishings upon which The Sofa & Chair Company’s reputation (and name) was built, but every other kind, too – from desks to custom shelving; banquet seating to sumptuous beds. There is also a full range of lighting, homeware and decorative accessories, including the brand’s most recent offering: made-to-measure curtains.
Every piece of upholstered furniture is fully customisable (the new showroom is also home to the UK’S largest fabric library, featuring over 15,000 samples). Once you’ve browsed the collections and discussed your design and lifestyle needs with The Sofa & Chair Company’s expert team of in-store interiors specialists, your selection will be sent to the nearby London workshop’s master craftspeople. There, every aspect of the making process – from CAD designs and fabric cutting to finishing pieces by hand – is undertaken by The Sofa & Chair Company’s in-house designers, carpenters and tailors. And all to the standard and same impressive four-to-six week lead time the company first became known for 14 years ago.
