Made Around You
Begin with the silhouette. Refine every detail.
Standard furniture asks the room to compromise. Custom upholstery starts with how you sit, how many people gather, and the proportions your space actually needs.

Compare sofa widths, chaise direction, corner pieces, modular layouts, and optional ottomans.
Choose the cushion feel and support that match how upright, relaxed, or sink-in you want to sit.
Select color, texture, performance, trim, leg, and finish details with material guidance before ordering.
Made in Southern California
Local craftsmanship, with room to personalize.

Planning Notes
Custom sofa and sectional questions.
What can I customize on a Thomas Dawn sofa or sectional?
Depending on the design, options may include overall dimensions, sofa or sectional configuration, chaise direction, cushion fill, fabric or leather, trim, leg, and finish. Modern Studio can help confirm the choices available for a specific model.
How should I choose between a sofa and a sectional?
Begin with the room plan and circulation. A sofa creates flexibility and pairs easily with lounge chairs, while a sectional can maximize continuous seating and define a larger conversation area. We can compare both layouts using your measurements.
Can I order Thomas Dawn fabric samples first?
Yes. Browse the Thomas Dawn swatch collection to compare color, hand, texture, and performance qualities in your own lighting before selecting upholstery.
Can Modern Studio help outside Orange County?
Yes. Our Laguna Beach showroom serves local clients, and the Modern Studio team also provides remote product guidance and coordinates nationwide delivery.
