Designing Your Dream Lounge: A Step-by-Step Guide by Leisure Lounges
Creating a custom lounge tailored to your exact room dimensions, comfort preference and style is an exciting journey. At Leisure Lounges, we handcraft custom sofas, modular lounges, home theatre daybeds and electric recliners in our Sydney workshop—giving you complete freedom over size, layout and upholstery. Here is our step-by-step guide to designing your dream lounge with us:
1. Envision Your Layout & Style
Begin by visualising how your family will use the room. Whether you are planning a deep DreamCoat or Orpheus cinema daybed, a Larkham Double Chaise, a Cenna Curved Modular, a custom bay window or sunken lounge, or a one-of-a-kind bespoke sofa from a photo or architectural sketch, we can build almost any design to the millimetre.
2. Consult at Our Smeaton Grange Showroom or Online
Visit our Smeaton Grange Showroom (6/9 Yarmouth Place, Smeaton Grange NSW 2567) or send us your room measurements, floor plan and photos online. Our design specialists will review doorway and stair access, walkways, sightlines and seat proportions so your custom lounge fits your space effortlessly.
3. Select Your Dunlop Foam Comfort, Fabric or Non-Toxic Leather
Test and compare our Australian-made Dunlop Foams (Enduro, Opulence and Luxura) alongside 200+ residential and commercial fabrics (Zepel, Mokum, Warwick) and 16 curated full-hide ranges of certified non-toxic, Low-VOC and vegetable-tanned leathers (NSW Leather Co., Corium Leather, Tasman Leathers & Italia Cuoi). You can also coordinate matching custom S-Wave curtains and Roman blinds in the same visit.
4. Interactive 3D Customisers, Plans & Renders
Configure our flagship models live in 3D online, or request custom workshop plans and 3D renders for bespoke builds so you can review every proportion and detail before manufacturing begins.
5. Handcrafted in Our Sydney Factory
Our Sydney framing, foam and upholstery craftspeople build your lounge from the ground up using F7 kiln-dried structural hardwood timber, heavy-duty Black Cat webbing and tempered steel springs, backed by our 10-year structural warranty and delivered across Sydney, NSW and Australia-wide.
