Furniture shopping is surely a fun but tedious task for me, especially when I have huge dilemma issues. “I like this design, but the size is not right..” “Ooo this colour is gorgeous! But it’s so not so comfortable..” “The material isn’t worth the price..” and the list goes on.. Definitely not easy to find the perfect sofa for our living room.
What’s better than to custom made the sofa to our own liking? We chanced upon Trend Creator during a renovation fair and it was a timely opportunity. We were intrigued to find out that the sofa is customisable to every aspect, and that includes fabric material, design, shape, size, colours, sofa legs, firmness. That’s pretty much everything!
CUSTOM MADE SOFA
I feel like the sofa is a center-piece in the living room, and comfort is also our priority, that is why we’re willing to spend a little bit more as compared to other furniture in the house.
We picked Le Mono Fabric (Polyester Fabric) as I like the texture and look of it. I felt that it match our interior theme better than the rest. There are other choices like half leather, genuine full cow leather, and premium water resistant fabric as well.
If you are more adventurous, you can also do colour blocking – different colours for the base and sofa. I prefer more neutral colours and grey was the one and only colour I wanted. At least one less dilemma on that!
I think we’re pretty lucky in the sense that the design and material we picked is somehow on the cheaper range.
I chose firm density foam cushion (love how it can be customised), as it really determines the comfort level. Guess who fell asleep on the sofa after a satisfying dinner. #foodcoma. Their foam is also brand new, and I was really particular about this as I’m afraid that some companies use recycled foam.
Cynthia was really nice and super patient in answering our enquiries. You can tell that she’s a sincere lady, definitely trustable too! I like how she explained everything in full detail including the source and how the sofa is made.
CURTAINS AND BLINDS
I got curtains/blinds from them as well as I was lazy to source for another vendor and her service was really good anyway. The prices seem reasonable enough even though I didn’t really make a proper comparison.
For our dressing room, I actually made a mistake with my colour choice. I wanted something more cool tone (closer to white), but got beige instead. The sample pieces are usually small, and may cause some colour discrepancy to your eyes, so this is something to take note! But after a week or so, my eyes have kind of adjusted to the lighting and I think it actually matches the room pretty well.
During curtain measurements, the person actually suggested to us to do high ceiling curtains for our master bedroom to create the illusion that the ceiling is higher (which makes the room more spacious). I wouldn’t have thought of it until they mentioned it to me! It turned out really nice and we like how the walls reflect some blue hues onto the curtains.
We definitely have no regrets purchasing from Trend Creator, especially the custom made sofa. The only thing we regretted is the size as a longer sofa would actually fit better. I guess this works too! Btw, we paid everything ourselves and this is not a sponsored post! But good things of course must share!
Thanks Trend Creator for the awesome service!!
