Typically a ritzy Rococoo-style design, a chaise lounge is now made available in large variety and style; from the old historical to the latest ultra-modern styles.
Sectionals are a mixing of different sizes of couches together and it allows you to add ultimate luxury while giving a personalized touch to your living room.

Many of the sectionals are now provided with a reclining chair to make you relaxed while sitting. With endless possibilities, this piece of furniture is the perfect for big families.
Sleeper-sofas perform the dual purpose of combining the casual comfort of living room and the relaxing feeling of a bedroom mattress. They also help to solve the lack of space problem. Just perfect for dropped in overnight guests, this set is being designed to look good and stylish to be an asset to the home.
