When it comes to finding the best furniture store in Houston, Texans know quality when they see it. At Living Designs Furniture, we've built our reputation on delivering exceptional pieces, unmatched customer service, and a shopping experience that keeps homeowners coming back for more. We're not just another furniture store; we're Houston's premier furniture manufacturer, and that makes all the difference.
But don't just take our word for it — let us show you exactly why so many Houston residents consider us their go-to destination for all things furniture.
We greatly value the feedback that we receive from every one of our customers. The people that we serve in our community are the reason that we are as successful as we are, and we love to elevate their voices when given the opportunity.
So, what makes us different from other furniture stores in Houston? Here are five key pillars that set us apart from every other furniture retailer in the city:
- We are the furniture manufacturer
- Our furniture is high-quality and affordable
- We offer custom furniture options
- We only hire furniture experts — not salespeople
- We are local to Houston
If you’re ready to transform your home with top-quality furniture that you will love for decades to come, visit a Living Designs Furniture showroom in Downtown Houston or Memorial City.
1. We are the furniture manufacturer

When Houstonians ask, “Who makes the highest quality furniture?” all signs point to us. Why? We offer something most furniture stores in Houston can't: we actually make the furniture we sell. Living Designs Furniture is a furniture manufacturer first, which means we control every aspect of the process from initial design to final delivery.
This isn't just a nice-to-have feature — it's a game-changer. While other stores are selling furniture made by unknown manufacturers with questionable quality, we're crafting every piece with our own hands, using our own standards, in our own factory right here in Houston. When you buy from Living Designs, you're getting furniture straight from the source.
Houston homeowners have trusted our family business for years. See what this customer had to say!
“This was our first experience with the furniture side of this family business (been using the mattress side for years). We couldn’t be more pleased! My tall husband & I each had our “non-negotiables” of extra length and a single bench seat…literally not an option with any other store in town. Being able to choose the density of the seat was an added bonus. They even let us know when the fabric arrived so that I could pick up a swatch & order coordinating drapes prior to the sofa delivery. We are extremely happy and expect this sofa to provide MANY years of comfort.”
Shannon C.
As the furniture manufacturer, we eliminate the middleman entirely. No markups, no quality compromises, no worries about quality. You just get to enjoy locally made furniture built with you in mind.
2. Our furniture is high-quality and affordable
One of the most common questions we see online is, "What company makes the best quality couches for the best prices?" The answer is simple: we do. But here's the best part — because we're the furniture manufacturer, we can offer affordable quality furniture that other stores simply can't match.
Think about it: when you buy from traditional furniture stores in Houston, you're paying the manufacturer's fees, the distributor's fees, and the retailer's fees. When you buy from Living Designs, you're buying directly from the source, resulting in premium quality at fair, factory-direct prices that make sense. Many of our online reviews read like this:
“Superior quality at a reasonable price. We are very pleased with our furniture!”
Ginger D.
Our affordable quality furniture doesn't mean cutting corners; it means cutting out unnecessary costs. We use the same high-grade materials, the same meticulous craftsmanship, and the same attention to detail for our custom furniture and ready-to-buy showroom furniture, but we pass the savings directly to you. It's quality furniture at manufacturer prices, not retail markup prices.
We also offer interest-free furniture financing that can help you obtain your dream furniture without stretching your budget.
Luxury furniture for less
While we're proud to offer quality furniture for every budget, we're also recognized as one of the best luxury furniture stores in Houston, Texas. Our high-end collections, such as our River Oaks Collection, feature pieces that rival anything you'll find in other stores for the quality and price.
3. We offer custom furniture options

How would you like to own one-of-a-kind, unique furniture that is comfortable, durable, and perfectly matches your style? While other sofa stores Houston residents visit are limited to whatever's in the store, we can create virtually anything you can imagine — as well as customize any piece on our showroom floor to your liking.
We craft custom living room furniture for Houston homes, including (but not limited to) sectionals, sofas, armchairs, bed frames, benches, banquettes, ottomans…if it’s upholstered, we make it. However, our design services go far beyond picking fabric colors.
Need a sectional that fits your unique floor plan? We'll manufacture it to your exact dimensions. Need a banquette for your breakfast nook? We’ll build it from scratch. Looking for an upholstered bed frame to add a cozier touch to your master bedroom? Not a problem.
So many of our customers come to our store feeling confused and depleted from furniture shopping and leave confident and excited once they learn about our capabilities — and our lower prices that can’t be beat for the quality. Here’s what a customer had to say about her custom furniture!
“Living Designs built us a stunning, top-quality custom sectional sofa. I had not been able to find the configuration, size, or fabric I was looking for, and one or two of my requirements were slightly unusual. The design process (style, dimensions, fabrics, leg and arm options, etc) was easy and fun, with staff being helpful and friendly but not at all pushy. The sofa was ready for delivery within the quoted time frame, and the delivery service was smooth and very professional. Our completely custom, built-to-order sectional came in within the same price range as ready-built furniture of similar or lesser quality, but is exactly what I wanted down to the detail. I could not be happier with my purchase.”
Antonia F.
From design to delivery, we can get your custom furniture made for you in just 8-10 weeks or less! We work closely with local suppliers from Texas and Louisiana, which has allowed us to avoid the shortages and delays that other retailers are facing in the industry — meaning you can get your new furniture sooner.
“Bought a modular couch custom-built to our specifications to match one we saw at a chain store. This one has much better build quality, includes a lifetime frame warranty, and is made right here in Houston. We were happy to support a local business just 30 minutes from home. Very satisfied with the purchase and experience.”
Benedict L.

4. We only hire furniture experts — not salespeople
Are you tired of being followed around by pushy salespeople who pressure you into buying expensive pieces you don’t love? We were too. That’s why at Living Designs, our team consists entirely of furniture experts who understand the ins and outs of how to make great furniture designed for your unique needs.
“Amazing customer service. They were very patient with me throughout the entire process all the way to delivery.”
Alejandro C.
Who you trust to help you buy quality furniture pieces can make or break your shopping experience. When you visit a basic furniture retailer, you are likely interacting with salespeople who do not have extensive knowledge of how the furniture they are selling you was made. They are there to do one job and one job only — to sell you furniture.
Expert knowledge that comes from being the manufacturer
Our team of furniture experts understands the importance of furniture design to make the shopping experience easier and less stressful. They can answer any and all questions you may have about current showroom pieces and our custom process. This way, you are more likely to walk out of our showroom with furniture that is perfect for you.
This expertise extends to every interaction you'll have with our team. From initial consultation through delivery and setup, you're working with people who genuinely understand furniture manufacturing, design, and what makes a piece truly exceptional.
“We’re beyond thrilled with how our home looks after Sarah and Dean worked their magic. The custom pieces from Living Designs have completely transformed our space, perfectly reflecting our style and personality. The quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail are unmatched. We genuinely can’t wait to show off our home to friends and family, and we’ll never buy furniture anywhere else again. If you're on the fence, trust us, Living Designs is worth it. You won’t regret it!”
Alex B.
5. We are local to Houston
Being a local furniture store means we're invested in this community in ways that big retailers simply aren’t. We understand Houston's unique character, from the Heights to Memorial City. We know what works in our climate, what styles resonate with local tastes, and what level of service Houstonians expect and deserve.
This lovely customer said it best:
“Buy local! It's nice buying higher-quality material sourced from the Houston area. Would 100% recommend to a friend. Skip those furniture stores that ship materials from around the world to make a cheaper product and buy something that'll last from Living Designs Furniture.”
Jacob W.
Our local roots run deep. Our family business is one of the premier furniture and mattress retailers Houston trusts to deliver quality products while also giving back to the community.
