Top Brands for Living Room Furniture

Most families think furnishing the living room is a one-time expense as they think the furniture they buy will last forever. And sometimes it can, luxury furniture can last for decades with the right care, but it comes with a hefty price tag because of this. Still, it is more expensive in the long run to buy cheap furniture to replace low-quality pieces that can be broken beyond repair in only a couple of years. So you must plan out the look of your client&#;s space with them before you buy any furniture for the living room and convince them to invest in their home with luxury furniture. If you don&#;t, they may choose to purchase poor-quality furniture from a brand that doesn&#;t value its customers, and they will have to live with this poor choice for many years.

So keep reading to discover which luxury brands produce the best living room furniture, what products we recommend to our customers the most, and what essential pieces of luxury furniture are worth splurging on.

But before we can do this, you need to know why it&#;s so important that you purchase luxury furniture for your client's home.

Why Is Luxury Furniture So Important?

There are many reasons why buying luxury furniture over a low-quality piece is important. But we know that your client may not listen to you if you don&#;t have evidence to back up your claims. So here are the five reasons we always recommend luxury furniture for use in any home.

1. It Enhances Curb Appeal

Buying luxury furniture allows your client to invest in their home without altering its structure by boosting its curb appeal. Luxury furniture is specially designed by some of the world&#;s best designers to become one. The home acts as both a functional item and a circulatory element within a space. This means that the piece will look like it belongs to the space as an installation rather than an extension of the home. A low-quality piece could never achieve this level of cohesion even if you were to design an entire space around one item. Truly, luxury furniture is the only way to create a luxury living room.

2. Customization Like Never Before

The furniture industry is always growing and changing to adhere to new trends. This means that new technologies are constantly being developed so brands can stay ahead of the curve. In addition, this industry boom has meant that most reliable brands are now equipped to customize their furniture to the exact measurements of your client's home. This means that you can have your client's dream sofa sized to fit the exact dimensions of their living room or have the stain of a dining table's legs matched exactly to an antique sideboard.

There are no drawbacks to customization; it makes sure that your client is getting a truly unique piece that works for their home and lifestyle. It will also make them feel involved in the design process, which will make them more likely to claim the space as their own once you leave their employment. This is good for you and them as it means you are more likely to get a positive review, and they are more likely to not need to redo their home in a couple of years.

3. Only Luxury Furniture Can Give the Luxury Look

An empty room is a blank canvas. You have complete creative control of what it becomes. But you cannot perfect the space if the furniture you select isn&#;t of luxury quality.

When you fill a space with luxury pieces and place them carefully in the room you are furnishing, it will fill the void of the modern home. Only luxury furniture has the power to do this.

4. Luxury Lasts Longer

Luxury furniture is built with legacy in mind. The materials used in the creative design process are handpicked to ensure both design and structural longevity. This means that almost any piece of luxury furniture you buy for your client&#;s space can last for years with minimal care needed to keep it looking its best.

Not only will this help you create a luxury living room, but it will also benefit your business as your client will see their furniture aging gracefully and place their trust in your ability to invest in their home. In addition, this means that they will be more likely to hire you to design other rooms in their home when they are looking to change things up.

5. It's Eco-Friendly

While your client likely wants furniture that is beautiful and well-made. They may also want their pieces to be eco-friendly without compromising the high-end experience. Only luxury products can offer this. Luxury brands are often adept at managing their carbon output and are conscious of the issues with sustainability within the industry.

Low-end brands do not have the capacity to care about the environmental impact of their furniture in the same way as luxury brands do, so they cannot alter their practices to align themselves with eco-friendly practices. Unfortunately, this means their furniture doesn&#;t last as long as quality pieces, often ending up in a landfill in only a couple of years. Therefore, you must tell your client how important it is for them to invest in furniture from a brand investing in the planet.

What Type of Living Room Furniture to Invest In

We know that furnishing a home can become very expensive even if you purchase low-quality furniture from low-end brands. So your client may be reluctant to purchase luxury pieces of furniture for their living room because of this. Whether you have a strict budget to adhere to or your client already has a partially furnished living room, it&#;s important to prioritize when it comes to the furniture you buy.

Four Most Important Pieces of Living Room Furniture

Here are the four most important pieces of living room furniture that you will need for any living room makeover, along with an explanation of why investing in each item is so important.

The Sofa

The sofa represents a sizeable investment for most homeowners- especially if it&#;s made of leather. But this is because it&#;s the most important piece of furniture in any home. So out of every piece of furniture in the home, you should have your client invest in a high-quality luxury sofa from a trusted designer.

Since the sofa is a &#;high traffic&#; item, it's prone to wear and tear. This means that if you select a low-quality piece for your client&#;s home, then it may become irreconcilably damaged within only two years with consistent use. On the other hand, since high-quality luxury pieces are made by designers and brands that value their image, the furniture they create does not wear as quickly as this. While this may be a selfish motivation, it benefits the industry as it means that designers can focus on improving their craft rather than pumping out poor-quality pieces.

The Sectional

If you are trying to create a luxury living room in a larger space, we suggest that you forgo the standard sofa instead of purchasing a luxury sectional for this space. However, it is important that you purchase a luxury sectional for the same reason as it is important to buy a luxury sofa for a smaller room - it decides your comfort.

But due to the size of the sectional, it draws the eye in a way that another piece never could. So you need a piece with a look that is only afforded by a luxury product. It would be challenging, if not impossible, to create a stylish, attractive living room with a low-quality sectional as it would be unable to effectively establish the mood of the space.

The Coffee Table

While you may think that tables can be bought cheaply, it is important to purchase a quality piece. Only a luxury piece can add subtle character to the room. Luxury furniture always promises extraordinary designs that can be thought-provoking or just aesthetically pleasing. Luxury coffee tables come in all shapes and sizes, from basic tables for minimalist spaces to more elaborate artistic pieces that are more fashionable than functional.

We carry coffee tables made of hardwood, marble, and glass because we know that your clients don&#;t buy new pieces of furniture for their home every day, and when they do, they need a piece that reflects their true personality. We understand the diverse needs of our customers and reflect this in our inventory. So if you are looking for luxury living room coffee tables from brands including Loft, Caracole, Century Furniture, and Milling Road, browse our inventory today. You won&#;t be disappointed.

The Side Table

The last piece of furniture you must buy luxury is the side table. Luckily luxury side tables aren&#;t hard to find. In fact, most of the brands that we carry that produce luxury coffee tables also manufacture high-quality matching side tables that can help you achieve a cohesive look in your client's space.

It is important to choose luxury when shopping for a side table for your client&#;s space. This is because tables often control the accessibility of a space in that they usually carry lamps to light the room, and they can be used to rest glasses of water and wine on in the evenings. If you choose a low-quality piece, it is less likely to have ample tabletop space for your clients to use. Moreover, since a huge draw of incorporating a side table into a space is its storage abilities, some well-made pieces have storage drawers. Again it is important to choose quality pieces in this case as most luxury side tables have soft close drawers, making hiding away snacks from the kids a piece of cake.

Top Brands for Living Room Furniture

Now that you know why it&#;s so important that you purchase luxury pieces for your client's home and which pieces you need to invest in, you need to know which brands produce the best luxury furniture on the market today. We have talked to our design team, and using their knowledge of the industry, we have compiled this brief list of the brands that create the best luxury living room furniture.

Alivar Furniture

This brand defines a uniquely luxurious era in fashion by bringing Tuscan beauty into the modern age. The designers of Alivar take care to select the most durable, sturdy material available for every product they develop. The artisans who build this furniture then blend these materials with grace only gotten by years of experience crafting furniture. The result is a beautifully made product. Alivar produces bars, cabinets, chairs, sofas, and tables for the living room.

We recommend any of the Alivar coffee tables in our collection for anyone trying to create a luxury living room. These tables have character. They can add an artistic touch to any room, so if your client is searching for something unique, you can be sure that they will love an Alivar table. And thanks to the brand's brilliant customization options, you will be able to work with your client to filter through several material options and sizes so that the table that arrives at their home can fit perfectly in the space no matter how different it is in terms of traditional style and layout.

Ralph Lauren Furniture

While this brand's name may conjure images of striped shirts, Ralph Lauren also produces some of the best furniture currently made in America. They use a medley of high-quality materials combined with classic designer forms to create furniture that will make your living room stand apart as a center for art in the home.

Ralph Lauren produces an abundance of items for every room in the home, but their living room furniture has proven to stand the test of time, and because of that, they have flooded the market with luxury living room furniture in recent years. As a result, you&#;ll find living room bars, benches, bookcases, cabinets, chairs, chaises, chests, ottomans, sofas, and tables in our inventory. As well as accent pieces like mirrors to help you brighten up your client&#;s space.

We always recommend the Ralph Lauren Modern Penthouse Metropolis Sofa to anyone struggling to find a sofa for their client&#;s space that is at once modern and traditional in its look. This transitory piece is an experience for the senses. The texture becomes the piece as it is made by combining fabrics and woods into its form to only the brand's talented designers. This luxury piece is more than a sofa. It becomes the fashion focal point of any room it&#;s in, meaning you can use it to command the look of a space.

The designers at Bernhardt are committed to preserving the artistry of furniture design in every piece that they produce, meaning that you can find pieces for your client's home that are wholly unique when you browse their catalog.

While the brand does produce an abundance of furniture for the living room, including benches, cabinets, chairs, chests, ottomans, sectionals, sofas, and tables, our customers are always drawn to the brand's entertainment consoles. Bernhardt entertainment consoles are ideal for anyone looking for a statement piece as they bring together the brand's dedication to design longevity and flair for design independence. We encourage you to check out our selection of entertainment consoles if you need luxury furniture for the living room for your project. We don&#;t want to rely on typical items like a sofa or sectional to be the focal points of the space.

Vanguard Furniture

One of the items we recommend to our customers the most is from this luxury brand. Its designers work hard to keep them at the top of their game as industry professionals. Every piece that the brand produces is modern and on-trend while still slipping into traditional formal spaces with little effort needed for it to be incorporated into the scene. Truly the furniture of Vanguard is transformative. You&#;ll find sofas, benches, loveseats, cabinets, ottomans, chairs, sectionals, chaises, tables, chests, and dressers in our inventory by this brand from a variety of their collections.

Vanguards Delmar Side Table is one of our most popular items, but that doesn&#;t mean you have to worry about all of your client's friends and colleagues having it. Its luxury price means that only those who invest in their home can possess such a beautiful work of art. The table's sleek metal legs and hardware gives it a high-end, sophisticated touch without robbing it of its character. This table&#;s solid stone tabletop is a perfect example of this brand's ability to use some of the most unique components available in their furniture. Both understated and chic, we recommend this piece to anyone trying to create a living room for a client that prioritizes luxury in every aspect of living.

EJ Victor Furniture

This brand was founded in , and in the last 20 years, it has taken the industry by storm by consistently producing some of the best luxury products on the market. Since the brand began collaborating with notable celebrities like Ellen DeGeneres, their success has skyrocketed, making EJ Victor a household name. This success has meant that the brand has been able to expand and focus on creating luxury quality products for the pleasure of its customers. They currently produce living room cabinets, chairs, chaises, desks, mirrors, ottomans, sectionals, sofas, stools, and tables.

The sectionals produced by EJ Victor in recent years are among the most luxurious currently being sold today.

Meaning that in investing your client's money into a piece by EJ Victor, you can be confident that you won&#;t receive a call within the same year complaining about damages to the product. Aesthetically the EJ Victor Korban Halston Sectional is unmatched. When combined with the brand's plush upholstery and ample cushioning, its unusual shape means that your client will never be uncomfortable on this piece.

What is modern luxury furniture?

What we call luxury is always relative and highly subjective. In the past, running water, heating, and frequent consumption of meat dishes were a privilege. Today, this is taken for granted by many people. In the same way, having muscle and low fat content was a sign of hard work and low social status. Now, a slim and trained body is intimately linked to the image of self-made success. It&#;s all a matter of perception.

Still, luxury is not determined arbitrarily. It&#;s by nature rare and not essential to survival. Luxury goods are those that can be possessed mainly by wealthy and powerful individuals. This has made them valuable. It also implies that the value of luxury furniture is not really proportional to the purchase price. Anything that justifies its cost not by any particular utility but only by its beauty and rarity is thus considered luxury.

In addition to the luxury villa, the expensive car or the private swimming pool, there are also other items that are worth a fair price. Occasionally indulging in one of these luxury items can give you a real sense of satisfaction, whether these are beds, chairs or tables. Design is about creating an object in its most beautiful and noble form. That is why design furniture and accessories clearly fall into this category.

The extraordinary beauty of design pieces goes far beyond their practical usefulness. In addition to being functional and comfortable, you also want the furniture in question to have unique aesthetics. This is precisely what Modern Resale offers with their luxury furniture.

The marriage of luxury and design

The home and its design has long been treated quite casually, but in it became a new playground for luxury brands as a result of people being home more.

Designer furniture has become strategic for this luxury market. The added value of products and image management are now really making a difference. All the cards are currently being distributed in a sector that is only waiting to be transformed:

• Position statements

• Alliances with high-end furniture or textile publishers

• New strategies

Everything is now being played out in the field of real estate. Hotels and condominiums are becoming the new showcases of luxury. Big, luxury brands all have hotels in their name in Europe, as well as in the Middle East and Asia. Among them are:

• Missoni

• Ferragamo

• Moschino

• Bulgari

• Versace

• Armani

The time is ripe for alliances. For these brands, it&#;s merely a matter of exchanging know-how with partners. They&#;re often from different fields of business, but share common values. Armani is engaged to Roca for bathrooms, Molteni & C Dada for kitchens, and Rubelli for textiles. As for Hermès, it has chosen one of the Italian pillars B & B Italia for the manufacture of its furniture. The brand has created a joint venture with Dedar for textiles. Little by little, the contours of the map of a new "luxe-design" business are taking shape. French or Italian furniture are particularly appreciated.

The contemporary movement

When it comes to luxury furniture stores in Los Angeles., the current movement does not characterize a specific design. It's instead a temporal reference. In this case, it&#;s a style that dates from the beginning of the industrial era. This goes from the end of the Second World War to the present day. In other words, it refers to our time.

It can be recognized by the use of:

• Molded plywood

• Plastic

• Bright steel

The decorations are designed with a desire for clean design without too many decorative motifs. The color mainly used is white. Most of the existing pieces are considered current, and some of them have also become real icons. The design of modern furniture is characterized by the following points:

• The use of natural materials

• Unique and original shapes to break the industry's patterns

• Surfaces made with warm colors and textures

• A priority of comfort and ergonomics

• A design with clear and pure lines

In other words, the current movement in luxury furniture embraces all the decorations that are produced and sold today. It follows the trends and fashions of the moment. You can get second hand luxury furniture from great luxury furniture stores like Modern Resale.

Enhance your home with luxury furniture

Modern luxury furniture obviously comes at a certain price. As you may know, it's often not very affordable--although Modern Resale helps by providing quality discount luxury furniture at a great price.  The interior and outdoor models are exclusive and not accessible to everyone. Do you want to embellish your home with a touch of luxury? Here are the main things you need to pay attention to when shopping for this type of furniture:

The room decor space layout

As far as the layout of your home is concerned, the most important thing is to keep it simple. One of the main codes of the contemporary luxury living room is the airy aspect it gives off.

You shouldn't pile up furniture and decorative objects at the risk of overloading the room. If you do overload the room, then your luxury furniture won't be able to stand out properly any more.

It can also be a good idea to determine living spaces in your home, especially if you have enough space. For example, a library or a television corner could create a cozy spot. This can be done with the help of decorative objects such as carpets, which will also bring a warm touch to your room furniture.

The colors of your modern interior design or living room

To keep it clean and trendy, don't add more than three colors to your room. Additionally, you have to play with the shades to keep some warmth. However, make sure that you don't overdo it so as to avoid overwhelming the room.

When it comes to choosing the right color, white is obviously a timeless color. It will enlarge your room, illuminate it, and allow your furniture to stand out. You can also choose more fun and trendy colors such as duck blue combined with mustard yellow. Of course, you will have to balance these tones.

If you have trouble with colors that are too bright but you want to bring a pop touch to your room, you can choose to apply them only on a part of the wall. This works very well, especially if you want to make a particular piece of furniture or element stand out.

The lights in your decor

One of the main characteristics of the contemporary house is its high level of brightness.

When designing your room, it&#;s best to choose large bay windows. However, if you just want to redecorate the room and don't want to do any major work, you can also bring some trendy lights.

We especially like the big industrial style bulbs which are very modern and which also bring a lot of light. The small lamps--placed on the floor--will bring a very warm spirit in addition to the big chandeliers.

How to decorate a contemporary home?

When it comes to decorative objects, the first thing to talk about is rugs. Rugs are timeless and classic, and will bring an essential touch of elegance to your dining or living room furniture. As specified before, rugs will also separate the different living spaces. They bring warmth and structure to your home.

We especially like the cocooning carpets, which give a cozy nest look to your room. But if you&#;re a very modern type of person, you should go for cowhide rugs on a waxed concrete floor, or fabric rugs in a light accent. Gray rugs work well in that case, but you can customize them any way that you want. This solution is particularly suited to a parquet floor in oak, for example.

Avoid Trinkets In Your Space

We avoid trinkets of all kinds. That&#;s because they&#;re not of high quality. They will clutter up your room and at the same time spoil the beautiful materials that you have placed in it. A contemporary living room should be both airy and comfortable. So don't hesitate to go for stools like this set of 3 stools by Knoll. They give your home a very warm look and make your guests feel comfortable in them.

Also think about the cushions. Their color should match your chairs or sofas. And of course do not forget to select some quality works of art to customize your interior. These are the height of luxury. They will bring a lot of cachet and singularity to your room furniture.

Styling tips for your living room furniture

With the following tips from our outdoor and interior design experts, you will quickly succeed in creating a luxury home with a stunning effect!

1. Think about high quality materials! Cashmere, silk, velvet, lambskin or wool should be used specifically. This creates a classy look. You should avoid buying synthetic fibers. They are not suitable for this style of furnishing.

2. The attention to detail! Find luxury decorations that will make your furniture eye-catching. Make sure that zippers and zip fasteners are well integrated into the decorative cushions. Keep the design simple enough.

3. As luxury furniture is expensive, it&#;s worth investing in high quality accessories. Fur blankets, velvety cushions or crystal glasses and brass candleholders are all great choices. These allow the room furniture to immediately appear elegant and luxury. More importantly, this can be achieved without having to invest a large amount of money.

4. Less is more! Small rooms in particular quickly become overcrowded. Too much furniture and accessories give a chaotic look to your home. Instead, you should rely on beautiful individual rooms. Create a luxury home atmosphere to please both the residents and the guests.

5. Let your wall do the talking! Yes, high-quality wallpapers also show luxury in a home. They embellish the room furniture individually and make it visually more interesting.
