By Bronwyn Poole
Bespoke Soft Furnishings & Upholstery
Thoughtfully designed. Beautifully made.
Textiles bring warmth, depth and personality to a home. A beautifully proportioned cushion or a welcoming upholstered seat can change not just how a room looks, but how it feels.
I design, source and coordinate soft furnishings for homes in Los Angeles and Santa Monica, considering how each piece complements your home, your lifestyle and the feeling you want to create.
The pieces you live with
From the pillow you reach for to the seat where everyone gathers, I consider comfort, proportion and everyday use alongside the beauty of the fabric.
- Custom throw pillows and cushions
- Banquette and breakfast-nook seating
- Sofas and upholstered seating
- Entry and hallway benches
- Window-seat cushions
- Outdoor cushions and furniture upholstery
This service focuses on the pieces you sit on, lean into and touch. For drapery, shades and the way light enters a room, explore my bespoke window furnishings. For a whole-home approach, visit Bespoke Interiors.
Fabric & Furnishing Inspiration
The process
From feeling to finish
- 01
Discover
We begin with your space, your aesthetic, your practical needs and a comfortable overall budget. I want to understand how you live and how you would like the room to feel.
- 02
Design
I bring textiles, colors, scale and finishes together into a cohesive, personal scheme, considering each piece in relation to the room around it.
- 03
Specify
I resolve sizes, materials, inserts, trims and construction details, then gather estimates so you can consider the proposed scope and investment.
- 04
Craft & Coordinate
I liaise with specialist suppliers and upholsterers, communicating the specifications and coordinating the agreed orders as your pieces are made.
- 05
Complete
I coordinate the finishing details, bringing the selected pieces together so they feel at home in your space.
Planning together
Understanding the investment
I outline the anticipated scope and investment before we proceed, so you know what we are working toward together.
A benchmark for bespoke pieces
Allow approximately $500 per fully bespoke throw pillow as a budgeting benchmark, not a fixed quote or an all-inclusive service price. Final pricing varies with fabric selection, dimensions, pattern matching, inserts, fabrication and the scope of design and coordination.
Banquettes, sofas, benches and outdoor furnishings receive a tailored estimate.
Design and sourcing
My design and sourcing rate is $350 per hour, covering consultation, textile selection, measurements and specifications.
Procurement and coordination
A 25% procurement and coordination fee applies to the agreed landed cost of sourced goods. This covers supplier and workroom orders, communication and routine delivery coordination.
Substantial additional site visits, revisions and installation oversight are discussed and quoted separately.
A note on budget
Feel first, design second.
I like to discuss your budget early so I can recommend the right approach, whether that means ready-made designer pieces, fully custom furnishings or a thoughtful combination of both.
Tell me about the corner, the room or the piece you have in mind. We can begin with how you want it to feel.
