MY sofa

I believe some of you know I've been working on a sofa design for my dad or basically for my house...Wahahaha...

Well, to be honest, I'm excited and happy even if there is negative outcome. Not that its my first design piece, but its the support my family gives and push me to fulfill what i want. ITS THE MOTIVATION AND SUPPORT!!! *gan dong dao~*

Don't keep you waiting, now i present my design for my daddy and mummy~

TADA!!!!



Disappointed??!?!

It's a simple and typical type of design I must say.. Its not the design for competition or to "WOW" other people because of its aesthetics.. BUT its something to suit my mum's habit and my dad's requirement when they could not get from outside~

Mum loves to move the placement of the furniture regularly~ therefore, i designed this to suit her and allows her to move to whatever arrangement she likes!

EXAMPLE:



For this arrangement, i can build a tray and it can acts as a side table..

Dad's requirement is basically wants it hard when seated on and easy cleaning~ therefore i recommended and chose the foam and fabric myself. Foam was of the highest density and the fabric is definitely waterproof to a certain level.

** Akemi's tips : IF you want something easy to maintain, DON'T use leather or PVC leather! They look good and expensive BUT not suitable for our climate!! Highest maintenance needed and it will crack like nobody business~ NOT RECOMMENDABLE!!!

Most importantly, the sofa can be made to any dimensions i want! not just the normal 3 seater? or 2 seater?

SO people with lotsa comments, go ahead and shoot it out!!! I DON'T FREAKING CARE!!!! because nothing beats seeing my own design physically even its ordinary!! Hell YEA!!!

  1. great work and I agree with you on leather and PVC, cannot for the hot climate, therefore when I moved into my new home long time ago, I still chose the cushion and rattan sofa.

    The beauty about cushion covers is you can wash to reuse, and you can make new covers with new colours to give a change in the way the sofa looks.

    Exactly!!! leather and PVC needs lots of care and must be well taken care of, to maintain~

    And most importantly, there are lots of fabric to select from!!!
