The Lawrence Sofa and Chairs

Let’s start with Cologne and trends in living room design. It’s colour, colour and more colour – a veritable explosion of vibrant hues through all the various trade halls of this famous annual European furniture fair. Sofas, armchairs, occasional chairs and dining chairs were all presented in a wide range of strong living colours, and at this event extended to the tables and lighting. It’s almost exotic, it’s expressive and it’s individual.

It’s often the world of high fashion that defines the direction and tone of the choices made to dress furniture. One bright exuberant piece of furniture can lift a whole room.

Bright and sunny yellows as well as pastel yellows captured the eye continually whilst touring the exhibition halls in Cologne. Designers added accessories in burnt orange, combined with sideboard pads in lush grass green. Greens of all hues were featured by many designers. Pantone – the colour standard – had selected a bright living yellow green as its colour of the year for 2017. This year 2018 the colour selected is Ultra Violet.

The salons of Vienna at the turn of the 20th Century inspired a trend many see continuing into 2018-19 – a combination of deep pine green, Bordeaux red, mustard yellow and royal blue.

Dark woods, brass (replacing copper) with rich satin gold – the brass being brushed, and velvets – all creating a sumptuous splendour in interior design.

At Sulfaro, you have the choice of selecting from our range, choosing your fabrics and selecting colours. We offer a wide range of accessories – lighting, ornaments and occasional furniture such as coffee tables, credenzas and ottomans in various shapes and heights.

Sulfaro Furniture – handmade, elegant and stylish. Beautiful crafted furniture. Built on a solid tradition of European craftsmanship over many years.

Sulfaro is a family business established by patriarch Nunzio Sulfaro. Nunzio arrived in Australia in 1960 aboard the ship the ‘Roma’. He had been sponsored by a well known Australian Furniture Manufacturer as a trained, proficient Fine Furniture maker and Upholsterer. His skills were and still are unique. Nunzio was driven. He wanted to create his own furniture and demonstrate his unique style to the Australian market – right here in Melbourne. After several jobs for larger companies, he commenced making chairs in a spare room at his home. In a short time he had transferred to a small factory in Coburg. Over the next 50 years there were many expansions and today Sulfaro has its manufacturing and showrooms located at 650-652 Whitehorse Rd in Mitcham, opening back in 1989. Nunzio has passed on that same standard of European Craftsmanship, Artisanship and know how to all who work on and create Sulfaro Furniture. His son Santo ensures that the same quality, finishing, design and comfort result in the stunning Sulfaro Furniture on offer today.
