Embarking on the quest for the perfect sofa is a significant decision that carries both aesthetic and practical considerations for your home. While the allure of that emerald green sofa that harmonizes flawlessly with your cherished vintage glass collection, we mustn’t overlook the potential regret that can arise when comfort fails to meet our expectations. Practical questions come to mind: Will the size fit in your living room? How will your dog feel about it? Choosing a sofa that aligns with your personal style is important; Imagine when you find out that green sofa has a motorized footrest and customizable tufting! The envy-inducing effect it has on your friends is merely a bonus—your body will also express gratitude for your thoughtful choice. Allow us to humbly share our expertise in the realm of sofas. As we step into the month of June, we begin our journey to guide you through upholstery options, customizable configurations, and exceptional functionality, all seamlessly blending to bring your dream sofa to life. |
Function
Sofas are more than a place to sit, they are versatile pieces of furniture that can be a place to relax after a long day, to entertain guests, or even to sleep. Some have built-in storage to help keep your home organized, while others are fashionable pieces meant to start conversations.
Bracci is what we imagine when we think of function. This luxury Italian line specializes in manufacturing leather sofas that can meet many needs in one. Crafted from eco-friendly leather and foam, their sofabeds are still a sleek statement piece without sacrificing the ultimate comfort experience.

If you need a place to lounge without needing a full bed, Bracci also offers the Plane, a contemporary sofa that combines the height of luxurious style with hidden storage and built-in table space. From sofas to sectionals, the range of their collection can be fit for a family reunion or a cozy night for two.

UpholsteryWe all have that one friend with a well-loved sofa. It’s the one that’s seen it all: cat scratch scars, dog slobber stains, crayon art made by their toddler. The one that’s so comfortable, they could spend hours just lounging on it.
The activities that take place in your home play a big factor in the material that your sofa should be upholstered in. If you have young children or pets, you’ll need a quality material that is durable and easy to clean. If you entertain frequently, you’ll want a fabric that is stain-resistant and looks great even after a lot of use.
What if we told you that you no longer have to sacrifice style for function? Performance fabrics have come a long way in the past decade, and now you can find a stylish and durable fabric that can withstand anything your life throws at it. |

Gabby is one of our popular vendors who offer a wide variety of upholstery options. From Sunbrella® and other UV resistant outdoor grade performance fabrics to full grain leather and premium bold prints, their library has something for everyone. And if you can’t find exactly what you’re looking for, they’ll upholster your dream sofa in any fabric we choose.
The quality is just as important as the style. After all, you want a sofa that will last for years to come, no matter how active or social your lifestyle is.

Motorized recliner from Hooker Furniture featured in our showroom |
PracticalityHave you ever sat on a sofa that just didn’t feel right? Maybe it put stress on your back or neck or the seat was too deep. Many people find that their current sofas start to feel uncomfortable after a while.
Oftentimes the practical solution is a motorized option. These modern alternatives feature adjustable headrests that can help you find the perfect position to relax in. And because they’re made with modern technology, they’re also more comfortable and supportive than traditional sofas. They can also make it easier for people with chronic pain or disabilities to get in and out of. |
We’re big fans of Hooker Furniture’s motorized recliners. Hooker Furniture is a U.S. industry leader in lovingly crafted fine upholstered seating, and their motorized recliners are some of the best on the market. Long gone are the days of the huge wooden lever that abruptly kicks your legs out without warning. They’re smooth, quiet, and stylish, and they come in a variety of configurations to fit any space.
From loveseats to sectionals, it’s important that the sofa you choose will also fit comfortably in your room. If you have a small living room, a straight sofa is a good option. If you entertain frequently, a U-shaped sectional is a great way to create a conversation area.
Hooker Furniture sofas come in a variety of styles, and we also love that each style is often found in multiple configurations so you can find the perfect one to properly fit your space. If you’re not sure what size or shape to choose from, we recommend working with one of our space planning experts. They can help find the perfect furnishing for your room and ensure it fits your needs and style.

VersatilityWe know by now how crucial it is for a sofa to be comfortable, functional, and built to last, but what if you don’t want this piece to be the star of the show? Opting for a more neutral alternative is a timeless way for your other furniture pieces to shine. It won’t compete with your art pieces or rugs for attention, and it can even help your room feel more spacious. A versatile sofa is also a great choice if you like to change your décor often. Neutral designs still establish a sense of balance even if it is surrounded by a lot of bold colors and patterns. |
Photo from Four HandsSome of our most beloved neutral seating picks are from Four Hands, a vendor we admire for their endless quest for inspiration. Even though many of their sofas come in milder colors, they can still stand out in a vibrant setting. If you’re going for a minimalist look, Four Hands’ also offers simple, bench cushion designs that encourage a more neat and tidy environment.
Whether you crave spice or simplicity, Four Hands has an incredible amount of unique designs that adapt well with existing décor without sacrificing comfort or quality.
