A Modern Utah Home

IMG_0101

We had the pleasure of assisting a client furnish their vacation home in Utah.  Playing off the contemporary minimalist architecture of the space we helped select clean simple furnishings, buildings off the clients existing collection. The neutral palette blends seamlessly with the expansive views and offers the perfect backdrop to connect the two environments, tying in the indoors with the outdoors.

Get the look in your home! We paired Sofa 3688 and a matching ottoman in an earth toned tweed with two brown 3585 recliners in the living room. The low-profile 3690 bar stools in the kitchen are upholstered in taupe leatherette with brushed stainless steel bases. For customization options and pricing, contact the showroom today!

Beautiful pairing from a customer's home

Check out this rave review from a customer of ours!

"We have the light installed and it looks great. A photo is attached of the area showing the "organically shaped floor covering", the new fireplace and of course, the gorgeous light fixture. The light it throws off is really beautiful as well.

We're still working on accessorizing with some color and need some artwork, but it's getting there!"  

We have plenty of interesting art options for you as well, Gina! Although, can't say we don't love Peet's coffee ;)

Looks pretty great! The fixture is Solis from Pablo paired with one of our hide rugs. Find your perfect pair today!

Introducing Maria Yee

Maria Yee is a lifestyle design company that fuses modern aesthetic with handcrafted construction.  The company focuses on environmental responsibility through a variety of sustainable practices. Their solid hardwood furniture uses responsibly grown and harvested trees, and many pieces are crafted using rapidly renewable bamboo.

No nails or screws are used on these gorgeous pieces of furniture.  Instead, the company has refined the traditional technique of breathing joinery and tailored it to the modern manufacturing environment.

The Right Leather Grade For You

Choosing a high quality grade of leather when purchasing a new sofa is extremely important!  At EWF Modern, we believe in providing only the best leather options for our clients. Below is some information about the leather grades we provide on all the sofas in our showroom to help you choose what is right for you.

Full-grain: This type of leather is minimally treated and is the most natural in look and texture.  It showcases the depth of character in each particular hide.

Top-grain: This leather is lightly sanded or buffed to smooth out imperfections in each hide for a more consistent look in grain over an entire piece of furniture.

Aniline dyed:  This is the lightest treatment available for leather and uses no pigment in the process.  It simply enhances the color of the natural hide and is typically used on full-grain leather.

Semi-aniline dyed:  This level of treatment still lets some of the natural characteristics shine through but uses a light pigment to even out coloring.  A thin topcoat is also applied to decrease fading and help with soil-resistance.

In our Pearl District showroom, all the leather grade options for our sofas fall within the high-quality categories mentioned above.  It's up to you to decide which works best for you home and lifestyle.

Quick & Easy Care Tips for Your Organic Furniture

Now that you have your new organic, sustainable, and sophisticated furniture, here are a few tips on how to care for these modern furnishings:

• Blot spills or moisture from furniture as quickly as possible.

• To clean, wipe the furniture with a dampened, soft, clean cloth.

• An occasional cleaning with a reliable product (i.e. Murphy’s Oil Soap) will enhance the fine non-toxic factory finish. AVOID oil, wax, or silicone-based products that might build up over time and attract dust.

• If a scratch occurs, use a good quality wood wax or furniture stain marker that closely matches the color of your furniture.
