Moving into a small house with no guest bedroom can be an issue for people who live away from family. While my family doesn’t visit that often, making it kind of unnecessary to have an entire room waiting for them, when they do visit, I don’t want to send them to a hotel. So finding a sofa bed that meets my design criteria is high on my list.

I love this sofa bed and I think it would work even for someone living on their own as their main bed. It looks so comfortable and the design is so clean. You could easily spruce it up with colored throw pillows. The white does scare me with kids, but not so much that I haven’t done it before and will probably do it again at some point.

The wood is mahogany stained cherry wood frame and it supports a bultex mattress and cushions upholstered in white cotton. You can find more information at FutureSeen.com

Small couches with style can be hard to find, unless you really love modern design, which I do, but it’s interesting to find other shapes and inspiration. This couch, called the Principessa, by Moroso is inspired by a fusion between India and Europe and the affect is classic styling with a touch of worldly flare. I look at this couch and want to travel which is a wonderful feeling.

My Beautiful Backside is a collection of seats whose backrests are a composition of highly coloured, floating cushions in various shapes. The wider your seat, the more cushions you can have. Our use of oversize symbols, such as the buttons on cushion backs, is a way of conveying a variety of messages. These symbols also provide a means of customising each chair, making it unique, just as you would add little distinguishing touches to an article of clothing. We used a new wool fabric designed by Giulio Ridolfo for Kvadrat. We teamed it up with felt because it’s a combination that reminds us of old-fashioned clothes with stiff starched collars.

There is also a lovely blue available on the company design site. I think both colors are great for a small home because they aren’t overpowering and the prints really allow for an eclectic style. While Moroso is an Italian company, they do have distributors in the US, which you can find on their website.
