A chaise sofa can be a great addition to any living room space. They allow you to make the most of your space while not having to sacrifice comfort or quality. Whether you’re looking for the perfect chaise sofa, chaise lounge, or sectional couch in Houston, it’s important to know how these pieces function and what value they can add to your living space. 

What is the purpose of a chaise sofa?

A chaise sofa is an upholstered sofa that has the shape of a chair but with a long section attached to it. The word “chaise” is a French interior design term meaning “long chair.” While the elongated section of a chaise can be used to recline completely, it can also offer more seating if you have visitors or the whole family around. You get both seating space and lounging space, making this piece functional and versatile.  

Having a chaise sofa in your home has many benefits. It can make a small space look bigger by not taking up as much room as a regular-sized couch, making it the perfect choice for apartments or smaller rooms.

Why design your own chaise sofa?

Some people find the idea of designing a furniture piece intimidating – but there are many benefits of designing your own furniture that some of you may not know. The reality is that furniture shopping can often feel like a drag. Many big furniture retailers don’t have that much variety in their showrooms and most customers feel like they can’t find something that perfectly fits their space, or that they truly love

If you have a particular vision, it can be very hard to find something in a basic furniture store that will match…unless you designed it yourself. 

Living Designs Furniture offers customizable living room seating options that allow you to create one-of-a-kind pieces that truly reflect your own personal style, for less money. No one knows your personal style better than you do… particularly not mainstream furniture retailers. Living Designs Furniture makes designing a chaise sofa easy and cost-efficient – what more could you ask for?! 

So, how does it work?

How to design the right chaise sofa

1. Measure your room

Regardless of whether you’re designing for a large space or a small space, we can help you to build a piece that will fit into any room. All you have to do is measure the room and give us the dimensions of your desired piece. If you’re unsure of how big your chaise should be, let a designer know the specific room dimensions and they can work with you to create a chaise that is the perfect size for your home and your needs.

2. Get inspired

Some people have a super clear vision, and some people don’t! If you’re in the latter group, we can help you to get inspired so that you can form a better idea of what you’re looking for. At Living Designs Furniture, our showroom is stocked with beautiful predesigned models, however, we offer more than what is just on the showroom floor.
