Every photograph here is a real living room cushion made to measure, read line by line by one of the seven masters. For sizes, foam and fabric, start at the Cushion Atlas page.
The stripes on my cushion don't run straight through on every side. Is that a mistake?
The workshop's answer
No. The craftsmen match the stripes on one face. As the fabric turns around the corners, a slight shift on the other sides can't be avoided, so find the matched face and turn that side out.
Can you make my window seat or banquette cushions from a designer fabric I already have?
The workshop's answer
Sending in your own fabric isn't practical, so cushions are made from the workshop's own fabric charts. Send the fabric's name and your project details, and the workshop will look for the closest match in its range.
Can the backrest hang on the wall like a headboard, on a French cleat?
The workshop's answer
Not on a cleat, because the cushions have no rigid board inside. Ties can be sewn to the top corners instead, so the backrest hangs from hooks or a rail. It is built like the back pillows: a removable piped cover with shredded foam about 4 in (10 cm) thick, or a solid foam core wrapped in fiber for a firmer, flatter panel.
