ADVERTORIAL FEATURE

It's the place you retreat to at the end of each day. It's a cinema seat, the perfect zone for cuddles, and a quick napping point, all rolled into one handy construction and, if you're anything like us, it's the place where you do your best thinking. Your sofa is the ultimate chill-out zone, a place where you can take a few moments to fully indulge. So when it comes to actually buying one, how do you make sure it's the right one for you?

The Sofa Workshop specialises in creating sofas catered to each customer's exact specifications. Working on the premise 'individual sofas, for individuals', the company creates sofas to your exact requirements, down to the style, size, fabric and even cushion filling, to make sure you get the perfect, bespoke product. The Sofa Workshop is so confident in the quality of its products; every one comes with either a five or 10 year guarantee: a whole decade of sofa-based indulgence ahead of you!

When selecting and designing your perfect sofa, the Workshop really has thought of everything. For starters, there are over 2200 different types of fabric to choose from, meaning you can match your new sofa perfectly to the decor of your room. Shopaholics may be particularly interested in such a wide selection! Free samples of all the fabrics are available, and you'll be able to choose between a loose or tight covered model (depending on how tailored you want the sofa to look, and how often you expect to remove the covers for washing; those with young children and pets will probably be doing this regularly!).

In terms of what actually goes into the sofa, there's more to it than you'd think. Different cushion fillings will produce different feelings and levels of softness; the difference you feel when you choose a cushion that's right for you is amazing. While some people love deep, soft cushions to sink into after a hard day's work (you'll want a feather filling), others like firmness and a smart look (like a foam interior). If you can, head down to your local Sofa Workshop and spend some time sitting on the sofas you have your eye on. Not only will this help you to create your perfect seat, it's also a good excuse to spend much of the day lounging around!

All of Sofa Workshop's products are designed, created, and put together in one of the company's studios and workshops in Britain. This means that not only are you supporting British industry, shipping is also quick and efficient. Sofa Workshop prides itself on getting your sofa to you, and will work to get it into your room of choice (even if this means passing it through the window), as well as discussing the best place to put it and taking away (and recycling!) all packaging. All you have to do is make your choice.

The Workshop has also begun creating a line of throws, cushions and sofa accessories, so you can really let you imagination go wild when creating your product. Many of the sofas on offer also have a sofa bed option, with a wide range of mattresses and bases. Perfect for unexpected visitors or late-night guests, all you need to worry about is providing breakfast in the morning!

Whichever style, shape and size of sofa you want, the advantage of buying at the Sofa Workshop is that you'll be able to find one that's perfect for you. Whether you want to lounge around or are looking for a more tailored piece of furniture, the Sofa Workshop will have (or can create) exactly what you're looking for, fuss free. Now put your feet up and relax!
