Engineering Logic
This system is engineered as contract-grade furniture.
It addresses Joint Fatigue typically observed in Hospitality / Hotel Lobby environments
by integrating the OE-Lock™ Floating Tenon System into the internal chassis.
Floral Jacquard & Pleating – Aesthetic Structure & Proportions
Designed as a controlled study of proportion and material behaviour,
the French Provincial Floral Sofa maintains architectural discipline
while integrating seamlessly into
architectural neoclassical furniture specification contexts.
The design is characterised by the precise vertical pleating of the seat boxing and the large-scale floral jacquard, elements that require a rigid underlying geometry to prevent fabric distortion over time.
Project-Specific Interpretation
In a recent commission for a Hotel Lobby, specified for
high-traffic commercial environments, the system was adapted to withstand
the specific challenge of Joint Fatigue caused by constant guest ingress and egress.
The seamless connection between the exposed cabriole legs and the rail is secured by the internal floating tenon system, an embedded methodology that allows the frame to dissipate kinetic energy without compromising the visual continuity of the carving.
Construction & Material Behaviour
The selected Solid Timber Frame is reinforced with concealed hardware engineered
specifically for commercial stability. This methodology is critical for preventing
failure modes explained in our analysis of lifecycle fatigue in long-term furniture use.
- Joinery: Reinforced mechanical connections (blind implementation).
- Finish: Hand-applied gold accents on natural wood tone.
- Load Behaviour: Calibrated for continuous dynamic loading.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this suitable for high-traffic Hotel Lobbies?
A: Yes. The internal floating tenon system is specifically calibrated to resist Joint Fatigue common in these settings.
Q: Can the fabric be customised?
A: Yes. We offer a range of contract-grade textiles suitable for hospitality specifications.
Q: What is the lead time?
A: Production typically requires 25-40 days for bespoke fabrication.
