When speaking with clients it becomes clear that not everyone is sure if a chaise longue will match the décor or fit well into a British home. I can see why this may happen. Does a classically styled chaise longue fit into a modern home with a plasma television? When you think of a chaise longue you think French furniture with some chap in a raspberry barrette sipping on a large glass of red wine (we are all nodding our heads agreeing with this).
When speaking with clients I try to get a good understanding of what their home may look like. I was speaking with a client not so long ago who described the interior design of a little cottage down in Bristol. Small living room, Persian rug, log burners, I have never seen their home but we can all imagine what their little cottage may look like. If we asked a Frenchman to describe a British home they would probably picture that house. The clients were worried that something so French may not work se well with something so British. My answer was of course it can. Lets be honest we all love a glass of French wine with some fine British beef, that’s why we should love French furniture in our British homes.
What I’m trying to get across is that French furniture and chaise longues can be enjoyed in any home.
