Questions and answers

What is the best way to measure the space to fit a bench in?

Measure the width and the depth of the floor area where you'd like to place a bench. The easiest way is to use a measuring tape. Hold the start of the tape down at the edge of the area, and let it run to the opposite edge. Make sure the tape is parallel to the side of the space, as otherwise you would overestimate the available space. If the distance is larger than what you can stretch to with your arms, ask someone else to help, or split what you need to measure up into multiple parts. This can be done by either holding the tape down halfway and continuing running it while letting the first end go, or by marking how far you have measured on the floor or wall, and start a new measurement. If you want to avoid drawing on your floor, try putting down a pointy object like a pair of scissors there instead. You should avoid dead places where the piece of furniture won't be able to go like electric sockets. Also it may be necessary to take the height of the space and the item into account wherever the ceiling is low like in loft rooms.

From the history of furniture: The history of chairs

6. Yorkshire or Derbyshire Chair with carved back and applied split turnings. (Oak.) Jacobean Period. Second half of 17th Century.

With the reinstatement of the Royal Family in the person of Charles II, the severity of the Commonwealth was changed to luxury. Chairs were now usually made in walnut and profusely ornamented with carving, especially the under-stretcher and backs, which were now made rather taller.

7. Jacobean Chair with acanthus leaf carving. A crown is carved on the stretcher and top rail m honour of the Restoration. Walnut.) Charles II Period. Middle 17th Century.

The height of the backs was still more marked in William and Mary chairs, as shown in Fig. 8. The scrolled legs were the origin of the cabriole leg, which became a great feature of the later chairs.

8. Tall back Chair evolved from the type shown in No. 7. The acanthus leaf carving is replaced by scroll work, a typical feature of the period. (Walnut.) William and Mary Period. Second half of 17th Century.

In Fig. 9 we see the development of the cabriole leg with the claw and ball foot. The earlier types terminated at the bottom with the club foot. The back, with its rounded top and urn-shaped splat, is of a very usual type, and the shaped uprights show how the use of walnut gave greater scope for curved work than oak.

9. Queen Anne Chair with cabriole legs and claw and ball feet. Note the omission of the lower stretchers. Rounded back and urn - shaped splat. (Walnut.) Early 18th Century.

Our philosophy

We want everyone to live comfortably even if they only own a small space they call home. We scan dozens of online shops for thousands of desks, cabinets, bookcases, shoe cabinets, beds, sofas and more by size, to find just the right piece to go under the stairs to finally get some closet space, or to find that extra long bed that is still narrow enough to squeeze through the door. From the kitchen to the living room, don't live around furniture - choose furniture that lives with you.
