We make great sofas. We believe they are the best sofas you can buy anywhere in the UK. This is why …

Our sofas are super comfy and we can alter the sit to your preference. As every piece is made just for you, you can specify whether you want a foam cushion, feather cushion or a combination of both. We can also make the sofa firmer or softer to your requirements and alter the size of your sofa to suit your needs. Can’t quite fit a standard sofa into that limited space? No problem, we can adjust the size accordingly. In fact, wider, shorter, taller, deeper, it doesn’t matter. Whatever size sofa you are looking for, Designer Workshop can make it.

We only use the best quality materials and components available. From solid hard wood kiln dried timber frames to luxurious feather filled cushions all made in Nottinghamshire we do not cut corners. Sure, this adds a little more to our costs but we simply will not compromise on quality. The good news for you is that you are getting a far superior sofa for the same price – or sometimes even less – than a sofa you would buy from the High Street.

We take great pride in every single sofa we make. We really do give each individual piece the time and attention it deserves. We are not a big factory, churning out hundreds of sofas a week with pressure to get out as many pieces as possible. In fact, as we are such a small team, you can be confident that the person you speak to on the phone and the one who delivers it you is also involved in making your sofa. We want you to have the best experience possible and offer every conceivable personal service that you just can’t get with a big organisation.

Your sofa is as unique as you. There is something supremely satisfying knowing that the sofa you are sitting on has been tailor made just for you. As well as choosing from one of the sofas you see on our website you have the ability to choose any fabric you want from our extensive range. We can even make a sofa in fabric you provide if you so wish, although you may want to tap into our expertise on the suitability of it for upholstery purposes.

But isn’t a bespoke sofa expensive?

In today’s throw away society it is tempting to buy a cheap sofa but if you are looking for a sofa or chair that will last a lifetime, spending the extra money will pay dividends in the future. We receive numerous calls from customers asking if we can repair their sofa seat as it is beginning to sag after just a couple of years from when they bought it from a high street chain store. These sofas are usually made to a price point so tend not to last as long as a quality hardwood built sofa. A good quality made sofa is also worth recovering so your original purchase will last even longer. It is also for this reason we restore and reupholster so much antique furniture. These pieces were built to last and having been around for over 100 years, they will easily last another 100 years after we’ve restored them. Quality always lasts.
