3 Tips for Adding that Royal Touch to your Custom Sofa Design

If you’re looking for living room furniture fit for royalty, whether that’s a visit from the in-laws or just making more room for your beloved King Charles Spaniel. Why not check out our new blog to celebrate the King’s birthday this June?

Mastering Royal Tones for Your Sofa or Chair

Colour plays a massive role in transforming any living space; it represents the style of your home and your personality. If you’re looking to be inspired by the royal colour palette, then you have a whole host of colours that will stand out and get everyone’s seal of approval.

The Regal Red Sofa

One of the boldest colours you can choose for your sofa design, red has an undeniable richness and will bring passion, warmth, and character to your home. The Plush range offers a few choices, including the standout ‘Pillarbox’ red or the more subtle ‘Rouge’ or ‘Shiraz’ choices.

 
With its velvety, luxurious look and feel, the elegance of this fabric would no doubt bring a sense of opulence and grandeur and hit the spot by creating a unique focal point for your living room.
 
Red is a great colour to pair with neutral colours like grey to bring out the boldness of the red. If you’re feeling daring, why not dial up the royal impact with some gold accents?

An Elegant Blue Sofa

Often associated with royalty for its sense of calm and tranquillity, blue exudes timeless elegance. And if you’re looking for refinement and relaxation, blue is the perfect choice. The popular Plush range offers not only a stylish deep Navy blue option but also a brighter Cobalt blue option.

The benefit of blue is that it’s a versatile colour for a sofa, whether you’re looking to pair it with bolder maximalist colours or gentler calming options.

The Majestic Purple Sofa

The colour purple has long been associated with royalty. It combines the energy and passion of red alongside the calmness of blue. Purple also represents wealth, extravagance, and mystery.
 
So, if you’re looking for lavish style in your home, why not check out ‘Amethyst’ or ‘Grape’ from the Plush range or even the darker purple shade in the ‘Aubergine’ from the Lovely fabric range? With its thick pile and mottled effect, it will undoubtedly add depth and drama to your home.

Infusing Royal Style into your Living Room

When you think of royal style, what comes to mind? We think of statement pieces that grab your attention, with distinctive silhouettes that add style and flair and a hint of history that adds character and charm.
  
So, if you’re looking for royal styles, don’t look too far from the traditional scroll-wing or flat-wing armchairs. With their traditional, timeless look and deep history, they wouldn’t be out of place in a royal or stately home. But with their elegant silhouette and classic design, they complement many interior styles perfectly.

Did You Know?

Initially created to protect you from drafts and offer a touch of privacy, wingback chairs are now beloved for their comfort and timeless style

Their versatility is in no question because these armchairs would be divine in a wide range of fabrics and leathers:
 

  • Whether it’s a deep brown classic leather
  • A traditional plaid Bainbridge fit for a royal country pile
  • or even a more modern style such as a velvety forest green to bring both opulence and harmony (Evergreen – in the Plush range, or Emerald in the Lovely range)

Adding Royal Detailing to Your Sofa

It’s all in the detailing, and if you’re looking for a royal ambience, is there anything more royal than a Queen Anne leg with its elegantly carved finish? We think not! But if you’re looking for something a little more subtle, why not consider a richer wood finish like a mahogany bun foot with its perfectly polished and refined look?

Whilst we have made a gold sofa before, we think that sometimes just a touch of golden tones can really add a touch of class without being too over the top. So why not consider gold studding on your sofa arm for that crowning touch?

Or, if you’re more of a king or queen of bling, we offer a jewelled studded option to add that more modern twist.
