Know before you buy
A tight seat and back means the upholstery is tailored directly to the frame rather than using loose, removable cushions. This provides a structured, clean-lined aesthetic and ensures the sofa maintains its shape over time without needing to be fluffed.
The spring/down construction offers a more luxurious, 'sink-in' feel than standard high-density foam. The internal springs provide necessary support and bounce, while the down wrap adds a soft, plush layer that conforms to your body.
Yes, the collection is available in three distinct lengths: a 86-inch condo size, a 98-inch standard sofa, and a 110-inch XL sofa. All versions maintain a consistent depth of 41 inches and a height of 33 inches.
The use of glides gives the Emile a low-profile, grounded appearance that emphasizes its curved silhouette. It creates a seamless look that works particularly well in modern or minimalist interiors where you want the focus to remain on the sofa's shape.
Because each piece is handmade to order in North Carolina, you can select from a wide range of fabrics and finishes to tailor the sofa to your specific interior palette. We recommend contacting a design consultant to review the current textile library and discuss how different materials will drape over the Emile’s curved frame.
Yes, the sinuous spring back is engineered to provide consistent tension and support across the entire surface. It offers a firm, responsive feel that is ideal for upright sitting while still providing enough give for comfortable lounging.
