Eames the Easy Way


Iconic designer Charles Eames was responsible for some of the most distinctive, ground breaking and covetable pieces of furniture of his generation. Making his timeless pieces more accessible today, real leather sofas specialist LeatherSofasOnline has a number of Eames-like pieces in its carefully edited design classics range, perfect for giving your home a new look and feel just in time for spring.

Bringing the best of 20th century design to the modern home, the design classics selection includes an Eames style lounger and Ottoman. Seen dotting the lounges and studies of the style conscious set of yesteryear, the LeatherSofasOnline design classics interpretation of this unmistakeable piece is made to modern quality standards.

The chair sits low and flexes slightly, with an ergonomically designed seating position for real comfort. In black leather and rosewood veneer, the lounger cradles the body, encouraging the stresses and strains of the day to melt away. Reminiscent of 50s Hollywood and America in its golden age, the Eames style lounger and accompanying ottoman adds a certain presence to any room.

If you don’t have enough open space to do the lounger and ottoman justice, a smaller piece such as the Eames style lobby chair can make just as strong a style statement. Based on a design Eames made for the Rockefeller Centre in New York, you can be sure your interior is in great sartorial company when it hosts this piece. The chair is constructed from three separate leather sections with eye-catching aluminium side frames.

Smaller still, the reproduction Eames DAW chair can be used as a dining or armchair depending on the space you have available. The comfortable moulded seat in crisp white, red or black fixes to unusual, stylish wooden legs held in place by metal struts – this mix of materials make it suited to any interior, from sprawling country house to chic urban sanctuary.

On the LeatherSofasOnline web site, you will also find a wide range of leather sofas, including the Petit Confort Sofas and a range of design classics including the Mies van der Rohe’s style Barcelona Chair & Stool as well as many Eames style designs such as the Eiffel Chair and Baha Rocker. LeatherSofasOnline sell a variety of leather and aniline sofas, sofabeds, beanbags and leather cushions, all at great prices.

Sofabeds: Making your guests stay more comfortable

Long gone are the days when entire families grew up and lived all their lives in the same village. Today friends and families are moving further apart, to different towns, cities and even countries. Though it’s possible to stay in touch via the internet, there’s nothing quite having your friends and family to stay in your home.

However nice it is having your loved ones stay with you, where they will sleep during their visit can often become an issue. In most cases sleeping bags are not an option, especially for elderly relatives. As are blow up beds and mattresses which are both too low down on the floor. Additionally, all of these choices can cause havoc in your home as they create mess and take up valuable floor space.

To make sure that your loved ones are always welcome in your home you may need to look into purchasing a sofabed. Most sofabeds are known for being uncomfortable, but at Leather Sofas Online they have a stunning collection of comfortable sofabeds.

Sofabeds offer you the ultimate in functionality, as they provide you with comfortable supportive seating by day and a cosy and inviting bed by night.
