Customizing upholstery in partnership with our interior designer clientele is always an exciting journey for us. We absolutely love the process of collaborating with other creatives, and helping them to realize their vision for a client project. We also happen to be passionate about color, textiles and sartorial details, so we love it when we get to work with like-minded individuals.
Sure; it may be simpler to only offer a selection of stocked items, but where’s the fun in that? As a trusted trade resource for couturier furnishings, it’s more gratifying for us to fill a niche within the design community and to play a role in the creation of projects both special and unique.
Customizing furniture isn’t just about the final product; it’s about the entire process. The energy and vision our interior design clients bring to this work inspire us and fuel our creativity. With our designer-partners, we consider how each upholstered furnishing item interacts within its environment and the dimensions of the living space, along with how it will function. This collaborative effort involves our entire team.
For instance, our Freya sofa/sectional is the result of a creative collaboration between Nathan Anthony, Dutch model Sanne Vloet, and Lauren Piscione of LP Creative. Inspired by our popular Hugo sectional, Sanne envisioned bringing the serene Japandi aesthetic—a fusion of Eastern minimalism and Western comfort—into her new LA home.
The resulting design, Freya, features elegantly cascading arms, soft rounded corners, and memory foam cushions for ultimate comfort. It includes large box accent pillows and double-down filling throughout its backs, arms, and pillows. This three-piece sectional offers generous, versatile seating with a wedge and center module that provide a range of lounging positions, including resting on the back rail for casual conversation. Named after the revered Norse goddess, Freya embodies both beauty and strength, making it a standout in any space.
At Nathan Anthony, we cherish these opportunities to create unique, functional, and beautiful pieces to be enjoyed for years to come.
