We’ve put together a collection of styles to help get you inspired during our sale and help make an informed decision.
Have a look at our styles below and let us know if you have any questions.
Boutique Luxe
This very on-trend, glamorous style features bold and extravagant statement pieces. Luxurious and designed with high-quality fashion in mind, Boutique Luxe has a variety of textures, finishes and patterns. Fabrics include plush velvets and silks. Furniture is finished in gold, silver, chrome or Marble. It’s all about the drama, so metal or stiletto legs usually complement neat button or stud upholstery and high-back sheen chairs.
Whilst both luxe and boutique styling share so many design qualities, they are also different in some aspects of their overall look. Boutique plays with richer jewel and dramatic tones and is more eclectic in its choices. This area allows individuality. For inspiration, you could look at your favourite boutique hotel.
Luxe styling has slightly cleaner lines with high polished finishes and a little more wow factor. There is an element of sleekness and elegance within this style, plus an essence of shimmer and bling.

Classical Contemporary
This style features traditional furniture with a modern twist. Reinvented to add understated luxury, we mix old and new together to create a range of stunning pieces. Neutral colours and architectural detailing complement the minimalistic and classical vibe. Textures and fabrics such as velvet and silk are contrasted with damasks and jacquards. Patterns and colours can update traditional materials to a more on-trend feel.
Our Chesterfield sofas are a good example of how a classical piece of home furniture can be reinvented. The classic shape with modern or unusual textures will bring your living space to life.

Contemporary & Modern
The contemporary and modern furniture style is simple with clean lines. The textures and finishes are crisp and fashionable, with classic colours such as neutrals, greys, blacks and whites taking centre stage. Bright and bold shades are then layered on top to make a contrasting statement. Calm, collected and mature, the contemporary and modern style works with bare and minimal furnishings.
This ensures the features stand out, with lighting and colour enhancing the structural pieces. Smooth and clean-cut, geometric shapes fall under contemporary styling. Metal, stone, opaque, gloss or clear glass works well and can be softened or warmed up. This could be with heavily textured, plain or bold fabrics, plus silks. Less is more with this furniture style.

Country
The country living style is subtly elegant with a classic ambience. As a timeless trend, this style is versatile and covers rustic furniture, natural materials and soft colours that create charm. Fresh air, long walks and rural retreats inspire this relaxing vibe of furnishing. Standing the test of time, sofas are all about deep-seated comfort and classic lines with a contemporary feel.
Colours include creams and greys with simple designs and tapered legs. Materials favour linen, slate and cotton, leaving an unrefined finish. Soft white and taupe country-style dining tables are a trait of this look, with matching cabinets made from natural wood. Graceful lines and weathered finishes are popular. This style is all about being welcoming and relaxing.

Home Comforts
The home comfort style is all about the individual. Using familiar furnishings and décor, it is important to create a relaxing space through a range of high-quality pieces. If being comfortable is a top priority, there are a variety of sofas that tick the box, with deep-seated cushions, high backs and the option to recline.
Many chairs fit the shape of the person, enhancing the experience. Cousins are experts in providing lumbar support and a place to rest your head. Sinkable sofas with large padded armrests and seats are a popular choice in this style. As the purpose is key, useful side tables, soft rugs and ambient lighting are all part of the comfort experience. Think function, think support and think about yourself. Getting the right kind of furniture can add a touch of elegance to your home.

Industrial

The traditional furniture style is high quality and well-designed. Timeless and comforting, this style is orderly and predictable with consistency and matching pieces. The colours are a mid-range of tones and blend from very dark to very light. The overall ambience of the traditional furniture style is homely and understated. The furnishings include sturdy crafted sofas, gently curved accessories and classically shaped tables. Detailed woodwork and premium comfort are paired with an ambience of elegant antiques and art.
The fabrics are inoffensive and are not overly shiny or textured. The traditional style favours florals, damasks, plain colours, understated stripes and small all-over patterns. Almost formal, the wooden furniture is crafted in deep warm tones of mahogany, oak, cherry and walnut. Accents will consist of brass, bronze or satin finishes.

Vintage Retro
Vintage retro is a style of pure originality. Classic pieces are often mixed with modern designs to give a stand out look. With inspiration taken from the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, this throwback style is full of flavour. As variety is the spice of life, wooden elements can mix with plastic, glass or metal. Intense colours with bright blocks stand out on a neutral or pastel background. Gingham, florals, checked fabrics, graphics and modern bare brick are heavily used.
Think stripes, diamonds and blurred lines. Curved tables and chunky sofas are also part of this vintage furniture style. The retro style blends with the modern flavour and design to create a piece of furniture that stands out in your home. Be bold and play with colours.
