In researching current trends, the topic of custom furniture came up and, yes, there has been a huge increase in custom furnishings! Why? A designer is trying to achieve the most continuity possible within the confines of the home. This does not mean everything matches but there is a flow to materials that are good together. If your eye catches or you are thinking about an object in the room, the flow is not as good as it should be! Good interior designs are best at interior materials! Yes, Frank Lloyd Wright did customize furniture and adaptations of his case pieces are still available. (Stickley Furniture)
However, many homeowners want a more cushioned look that invites sinking in and relaxing. From a custom sectional to fit the shape of the room to wall mounted shelves instead of free standing console tables, the options are limitless! Built-in cabinetry instead of freestanding? More storage? A better look customized for you? Custom everything? There are so many chair options for both dining and relaxing that you can usually find great chairs. Check your spaces. Are they working for you? LuxeSpecs.com is adding a furniture section soon!
