The Chaise

I think the chaise silhouette is an elegant statement about personal comfort.  It says, “This is where I kick back and enjoy luxury living.”   I added this Chat Chaise to my Home Retreat Collection, which incorporates an additional arm toward the foot of the chaise so a second person can sit in on some cozy conversation.  My chaise at home is next to French doors leading to a patio.  I love to read here or simply wallow in a quiet moment.  It also functions nicely for packing a suitcase.

I usually try to specify a chaise for some place in a client’s home; ideally it is an element in everyone’s lifestyle.  A chaise in the bedroom or secluded corner of the living room says, “Slow down  and relax.”  A pair of chaise lounges is great in the media room for a couple.

I like to create custom designs with different shapes and sizes.  I add an arm or two if it’s for reading; no arms if for napping.   –  San Diego Home/Garden Lifestyles magazine   March 2012
