The Sleeper Sofa
The sleeper sofa, love em or hate em they’re most definitely useful as they can make any space multi-functional. However, people don’t always find them to be comfortable or all that stylish, something that can be discerned by reading the comments section of a recent Apartment Therapy post on the same subject.
Frankie Sectional
A little known fact is that a majority of the custom hand-made sofas we carry can be made as sleepers. All it requires is that you choose a frame that has loose seat cushions (so that you’re able to remove them) and that you pick a size that meets the minimum size requirements (66″ W for a full and 78″ W for a queen, in most cases). And if you’re worried about being able to see the sleeper component at the bottom of the sofa when it’s not in use, then don’t! We increase the size of the lower portion of the sofa (the apron) to conceal everything.
BAM! Now it's a Frankie Sleeper Sectional
The sleeper component consists of a 4″ innerspring mattress and a 4″ inflatable air mattress. That gives you 8 inches of mattress that prevents you from feeling a crossbar making it comfortable to sleep on.

The best part of being able to custom make sofas is that we have full control over the design of our furniture. If you want a sectional sofa with a sleeper inside, in a grey fabric with wood legs and tufting on the back…it’s totally doable. Just for you.
Tailored Sofas Done the Vastu Way
Apartment Therapy recently had a post about how tailored sofas can bring a look of elegance and sophistication to your room. They made a good point that “tailored” doesn’t come with a certain color or pattern, but just has to come with a clean-lined, “unfussy” look.
That got me to thinking, “Wait, Vastu’s been doing the tailored sofa for years!”
Here are some great examples of our tailored sofas in beautifully designed spaces.
