Seating · Lounge seating, made to order

Custom sofas and timber-framed seating, made in Sydney.

Custom sofas at Goldenwood are made to order on a timber frame and upholstered: button-tufted sofas like the Caloundra and the Maroochy, lounge settings like the Redfern, and banquettes for dining nooks and restaurants. The size, the shape and the timber of each can be changed to suit your room.

Does Goldenwood make custom sofas?

Yes, made to order. The Caloundra is a compact two-seat sofa with a button-tufted back and winged arms, and the Maroochy has a tufted back and curved arms on splayed legs. The Mollymook, shown in Tasmanian Oak, is a bench sofa with a framed back and arms and a two-part seat cushion.

For a living room, the Redfern Lounge Setting pairs a low-armed sofa with two swivel armchairs on star bases, and the Mornington lounge chairs have deep upholstered seats and backs on angled frames.

Do you make banquettes and booth seating?

Yes, for dining nooks at home and for restaurants. The Channel Banquette is a fixed bench with a vertical channel back on a solid timber base. The Pyrmont is a U-shaped booth in American Oak, the Newtown wraps its seat and back in a rounded American Oak shell, and the Leichhardt is a long restaurant banquette with a spindle back rail, loose back cushions and a foot rail.

How is the Channel Banquette built?

On a solid timber base, with ply and internal hardwood framing, dowelled or screwed and glued to a commercial grade. The seat and back are high-density foam over webbing, the back cut into vertical channels, and the timber is finished in a clear matt two-pack polyurethane.

As shown it is 1,800 mm long, 650 mm deep and 950 mm high, with a 460 mm seat height as standard and a medium-firm seat.

How long does a custom made sofa take?

A custom lounge sofa or banquette takes 8–10 weeks once the design is confirmed; how a commission runs is on the custom furniture page.

Questions

Questions, answered.

Can the banquette be made longer, or with a lower seat?
Yes. It is shown 1,800 mm long with a 460 mm seat, and the length and seat height are settled on the drawings before it is made.
Is the seating made for commercial use?
Yes. The Channel Banquette is built to a commercial grade, and the Pyrmont, Newtown and Leichhardt are made for restaurant seating. For a whole fit-out, Goldenwood also makes joinery, storage and bespoke furniture to a designer's or architect's specification. Restaurant and café booth seating, as part of a fit-out, has its own page: shopfitting.
Can I see the timber and finish of a sofa frame first?
Yes: the sample boards are at the Wetherill Park showroom, on the workshop floor, or a kit of chips and finish samples can be posted. The Showroom page has the details.

We had five pieces of furniture made by Golden Wood, and the experience was outstanding. David designed exactly what we envisioned, while he and Cindy kept us updated at every stage. We even inspected the pieces before staining and chose our preferred finish with their guidance. …
