The hottest trend in furniture right now is to make an investment in pieces that you love.  And when buying upholstered furniture, comfort is essential.  Popular styles across the country now include Mid Century, Asian, vintage and transitional pieces that have a global feel plus the ability to successfully mix styles to create an unique look. 

For example one client of mine loves Old Hollywood style, campaign style furniture and Asian so we’re mixing up her room to include a little bit of all three styles to create a look of her own.   And another client of mine loves the Tommy Bahamas look plus natured inspired leaf designs so we created a sunroom that incorporates both.
