Draping Technology

Build your own custom upholstered furniture ... in 3 easy steps!


1. Select the style

Which style do you like best – modern or classic design, high or low back, rounded or square arms, wide or narrow seats? We offer a lot of choices, so it can get a bit confusing to find just the right one. The best way to choose your favorite style is to see it without the influence of colors or accessories in a photo. If you hate the color red, for instance, you probably won’t look at a sofa pictured in red, even though its style could be exactly what you want. That’s why we display black & white drawings of all our furniture items instead of full-color images.

Once you've found the perfect style, click on its image to go to the style’s product page.

2. Select colors and options

Here’s where you can get creative by playing with different color combinations for the body and pillows.

When you arrive at the product page, you'll see a black & white drawing of the item, along with its name, dimensions, price, etc. Below the illustration is an actual image* of an item in the collection you selected. This is the "draping image".

*NOTE: The item in the draping image may not be the exact same item as in the b&w illustration. For instance, if you’re ordering a chair with one pillow, the draping image may very well be of a sofa with two pillows. But, hey, you get the idea, right!

   • Click on the "Body" tab in the options box to the right of the draping image and scroll through the many fabric/color options available for this collection. You may want to click on the "View" link for a particular swatch to see an enlarged image of the fabric/color. To select a fabric/color, just click on the swatch and you'll see the draping image actually drape the item in that selected fabric/color.

   • Now click on the "Pillow" tab, select a fabric/color for your pillow(s) and watch the pillows in the draping image change to that fabric/color.

   • Don't like it? No problem, whenever you click on a new fabric/color swatch in either the Body or Pillow options box, the new option will appear in the draping image. So play with it as much as you want to get the exact fabric/color combination you want.

   • If you still aren't quite sure that the fabric/color you selected is "absolutely perfect", you can ask us to send you (free!) a real swatch so you can look at it more closely, feel its texture and compare it to other fabric/colors in your home. Just click on the "Swatch Request" tab at the top right of this page to find out how.

   • If your selected furniture collection allows you to choose the Wood Finish, you'll see a "Wood Finish" tab in the options box. This works just like the Body and Pillow options - click on the wood finish you like and watch the legs appear in that finish in the draping image.

   • And don't forget to take a look at the "Extra Options" tab to see what else you would like to add to you item, like our exclusive CloudCoil feature for our sleepers.

   • If the one item is all you're looking for, click on the "Add-to-Cart" button and you'll be taken to the Shopping Cart page.

3. Select complementary items

But wait – how about a chair and ottoman to go along with your sofa? Scroll down below the Product Description to see a list of all the other items in the selected product’s collection. Each of these items will display the same fabric/color options you chose for the main product, so it’s easy for you to order, for instance, the chair and ottoman in the same fabric/color combination as the sofa you originally selected without having to go to each product’s page and find the right fabric/color options all over again.

To order an item in the same fabric/colors, click on the small checkbox to the left of the item’s image. Don’t forget to add the Extra Options you want! If you want more than one of that item, just change the number in the quantity box.

On the other hand, maybe you want one of these items in a different fabric/color. No problem – first click on the “Add to Cart” button to place your order for the main product, then click on the “Keep Shopping” button to return to the product page. Scroll down to the item you want, click on the image to go to its product page, and get creative all over again!
