September 1st, 2010 by sofaset No comments »Concept: The artists observation is that there are news on wars and conflicts that are happening elsewhere in the world every day on newspapers, radio and TV but nobody within his reach seems to pay much attention to these stories. Why bothered? they would say, especially the youth. People in Viet Nam, the young generation in particular, are occupied with economic development and getting rich. Its also pretty common that when people live in peace and can enjoy a comfortable life, they tend to be ignorant of others hardships and sufferings and even forget about their own difficult experiences in the past. But stay alert! change is the only given thing in the world. Do not rest on your laurels, because there is always potential or hidden risk and if you are not prepared, you will be caught in trouble and danger one day. This is the message of the artwork. Description: The two main components of the artwork include a beautifully framed abstract painting in black and white hung on the wall, and a comfortable-looking sofa set in front of the painting. The whole setting will be lighted with focused and yellow light, in a corner of the gallery (size 4mx5m), to give the feeling of a cozy and comfortable home atmosphere. However, the comfortable and cozy looking sofa will be actually fragile. Viewers will get the message when discover the delusive appearance of the artwork.

Black Leather Sofas and Chairs – Make a Statement
August 28th, 2010 by sofaset No comments »The sofa is the most important part of the living room. Since its one of the largest pieces of furniture in the room, it is easily the most noticeable. Also when guests arrive, the sofa is the first thing they will notice, as they go to sit on it. The sofa has to be comfortable and large. It should be spill-friendly, and easy to maintain. It should be classy and tasteful, and match with the walls of the living room. The size of the sofa must be right too – a small sofa in a large room or vice versa could have disastrous results.
Black leather sofas
A black leather sofa is one of the finest choices you can make. These sofas are extremely comfortable and sophisticated. They look elegant and stylist at the same time, and they never go out of style. It doesn’t matter if you are hosting a party for the Champions League final with the guys, or having a formal meeting with business partners, or having a hot date. Black leather sofas add a touch of zing and elegance to your home which cannot be obtained from other sofas. You could further add to the style statement by choosing a leather settee instead of a sofa. They look grand, and are very spacious. They give your living room an unmatched style that will put you straight on top of everyone’s favourite party hosts list.
Leather suites and their advantages
Leather suites come in many colours – black, brown, beige, red and even white. They look very beautiful, and can be chosen in size as well as in colour to match your living room. A leather suite typically consists of a sofa or a settee, a couple of leather chairs and sometimes bean bags too. You could choose side tables and tea tables to match with your leather suite. Your living room furniture will then be all part of a complete set, which will match with the aesthetics of the room.
These suites are very easy to clean and maintain. The trouble with velvety furniture is that if anyone spills on it, it creates a terrible mess which is very difficult to clean. The stains are not easy to get rid of either. Leather sofas on the other hand are much easier to clean and maintain. Dusting them once in a day or two will ensure that it is clean and fresh. If anyone spills a beverage or food – that too could be easily cleaned with a wet cloth or some leather polish liquids.
So buy one of these today, and redecorate your living room. It will definitely give your living room character and elegance.

Ottomans
August 25th, 2010 by sofaset No comments »Ottomans are decorative furniture pieces that are used for seating, lying down, storage and giving a gorgeous look to your living room. Ottomans are common in countries like the United States and European countries, but they are seldom found in the third world countries.
Quite interestingly, the term is derived from the French word ‘ottomane,’ which is the feminine version of ottoman. The word could have also been derived from the Italian ‘Ottomano’, Medieval Latin ‘Ottomanus,’ Medieval Greek ‘Othomanoia,’ from Arabic ‘Utmani’. Ottoman was also the name of an empire of the late 16th century.
To give a more comprehensive definition of ottoman, it can be said that an ottoman is a heavy ribbed fabric of a mixture of silk and wool or cotton. They are also known as the ottoman silk. According to many scholars, an ottoman was the first cushioned seat without back or arms, or a storage-box with a padded top.
There are many types of ottomans that might suit one’s home and purpose, and give the room the charm one is looking for. They are available in all sizes – starting from standard size to small and even to oversize. Many beautiful ottomans are covered with leather. They are mostly used as storage benches, and footrests are constructed with a sturdy hardwood frame. They are mostly wrapped with luxurious leather or beautiful designer fabrics.
Ottomans are used as footstools, extra seating, a coffee table, or as bedroom furniture. Some of the popular ottomans are leather cube ottomans, storage cocktail ottomans, upholstered ottomans and round ottomans.

Get a Sleeper Sofa If You Want to Maximize Your Living Space
August 24th, 2010 by sofaset No comments »If you have a small living space, or often have trouble coming up with sleeping accommodations for your guests, a sleeper sofa might be the perfect solution for you. They maximize your living space by doubling up as your sitting furniture as well as an additional bed, while occupying a relatively small area.
You can find sleeper sofas in several styles. However, all of them can be put into any one of three major types of sleeper sofas. The first, and most common type are the ones which convert to a bed when you pull the extension from underneath the sofa cushions. Next, you have the type that enables you to adjust the back support, from anywhere between ninety degrees for full upright seating, to 180 degrees for laying down. Lastly, you can also opt for the sectional type. These are modular pieces of furniture which you can arrange for upright seating, putting your feet up, or laying down. These normally come with an ottoman and built in chaise. You can use the chaise to lounge or sleep while others can sit upright. To create an even larger surface area for laying down, you can push the ottoman next to the chaise.
Sleeper sofas often come with unattached foam cushions that you can use for arm rests or pillows. However, many have built in arm rests, many of which are adjustable. However, a few of them do have adjustable arm rests.
Since sleeper sofas have to endure heavy use, make sure that the one you buy is well built. Make sure the sales page that you are reading or the sales person that you are dealing with verifies that the frame is made out of hardwood, and that the screws, hinges, and locking mechanisms are made out of high quality steel. Not only that, you also want to ensure that the cushions are made out of materials which return to their original form. In general, the firmer the better because you need support as you lay sleep. Cushions that are too soft will not support your back much, resulting in chronic pain, tension, and unrestful sleep. If you want to maximize comfort, buy a sleeper sofa that has high quality fabrics, such as genuine leather or microsuede. These fabrics stay supple and retain their elasticity, while others fabrics such as microfiber and upholstery tend to pill, tear, and become coarse over time.

How to Buy a Sofa
August 22nd, 2010 by sofaset No comments »Before you set out to buy your new sofa, decide on the style. Go online and do some research by visiting furniture store websites. This will help you get an idea of what you’d like and what is in style. Availability isn’t an issue at this point; it will just help point you in the right direction.
Take a look at the space where the sofa will go and determine the size that is right for the space. Measure you existing sofa-including length, spread of arms, height at the highest back, and width of the seating area. Do you have room for a large puffy sofa or do you only have room for a small scale love seat? When you find a sofa you like, measure it and use painter’s tape to block out the size on your floor at home. Check to see if all traffic ways still work and if it doesn’t overpower the room or seem too small.
Think of the function. How many people will use the sofa? How often will it be used? Are children going to be using the sofa? Consider if a hide-a-bed or futon is suitable for your lifestyle. Also remember that it is easier and cheaper to paint the room than it is to buy a new sofa or to have it reupholstered. Select a pattern or color that will stay current for the life of the sofa and will suit any décor. Trends are fun but never last that long, so think long-term when buying a large piece of furniture. You can add in accessories and pillows that easily change, to give a splash of color and update more regularly than getting a new sofa.
When you are ready to start shopping for your new sofa, keep these factors in mind:
1. The frame of the sofa should be strong. Try to find a frame that is made from kiln-dried hardwood, such as, oak, maple, birch, or alder. High quality hardwood, plywood, or marine plywood is also a durable substitute. The corners of the sofa should also be reinforced with wooden blocks, which are blocks glued to the frame at various stress points to add strength.
2. When choosing your sofa ask about the springs. The more springs there are, the cushier the sofa. This comes with a cost but it also means quality and durability. Also, ask if the springs are hand tied or machine tied-hand tied are stronger and tend to stay in place better. Make sure the back of the sofa has springs as well.
3. The next step is the filling. Look for a filling such as foam, cotton, polyester, down, fibre, or a combination of these, which will be the most comfortable; the denser the filling, the more comfortable the sofa. Better quality foam will have a density rating of 1.8 to 2.5, which will be something you will have to ask the sales person.
4. Choose the upholstery that suits your family’s needs the best. This is where you need to think of who will be using it. If you have young children, grandchildren or pets, you need a fabric that will stand up to the wear and tear of everyday life. Linen, cotton, wool, and silk are popular natural upholstery options. Leather is the most durable and easy to maintain. However, new synthetic materials are also great choices; they are durable and stain resistant. Also, avoid sofas that use staples to attach fabric, as they will loosen or even rip over time-hot glue is a better choice.
5. Finally, sit and lie on the sofa and make sure it is comfortable. When you test the sofa make sure you take your shoes and coat off-you will not be wearing these when you are at home. Make sure the sofa is not too narrow or short to lie down on, and proportioned to your body.
6. Some shopping tips: Wear comfortable shoes that you can easily slip off to test out the sofas. Bring a notebook, measuring tape, and digital camera. You can have a salesperson write down the details of the sofa you like on his or her business card. Remember to ask about their delivery and return policies.
Remember, you will most likely be living with your sofa for the next ten years, so follow these guidelines, choose wisely, and enjoy it.
