At Sofa Workshop by Timothy Oulton, our passion is perfecting the world’s best sofas – the way we design them, the way we hand make them, and the way we help you find the perfect fit for your lifestyle. We Believe in Great Design All our designs are developed in-house by our international design team. We study designs from all over the world, thinking through how different design approaches can change the way people feel and experience a product, and we combine that learning with our understanding of how modern lifestyles are changing and evolving. Crafted by Hand We are captivated by the use of beautiful materials, fashioned with simple tools and time-honoured techniques, and the way that this kind of craft can change how we feel about and experience our home. We understand the joy that comes from a home anchored in great design, handcrafted quality and comfort, where everything just seems a perfect fit. Perfect Comfort, Tailored For You Every home is different; every room, every lifestyle, every family, which is why we feature a wide variety of styles, seating contours, sizes and finishes.

FIND A STORE NEAR YOU What our customers say Don't take our word for it... Made by hand in our own workshops Beautiful Materials We make everything by hand in our own workshops, employing artisanal craftsmanship techniques from around the globe. Starting with beautiful raw materials and proprietary finishes such as our unique hand-finished leathers and exuberant printed velvets, developed in our own tanning, fabric dyeing and printing workshops. Time Honoured Techniques Fabrics and leathers are cut by hand, allowing for just the right amount of material to achieve the perfect fit for your chosen, fixed or loose covered sofa upholstery. Doing things the traditional way means that everything takes longer, but that’s part of what makes our pieces special. Crafted the Traditional Way Everything is made by hand by our skilled craftspeople, from frame construction to upholstery finishing, using simple tools, time-honoured methods and generous amounts of beautiful, natural materials. Each piece is individually finished, and we pride ourselves on our meticulous attention to detail. Our Own Sustainable Tannery We’re proud to have our own tannery in Brazil, where we’ve engineered a unique, technically advanced water management system, which uses 85% less water and 40% less chemicals during the tanning process, in a drive to create sustainably processed leathers with zero impact.
