Ordering a custom sofa is easier when the room, the route into the room, and the upholstery are specified separately. This guide helps homeowners, designers, and project buyers choose a size and fabric before asking OKKHM for a production drawing and quotation.
1. Measure the space before choosing a sofa length
Sketch the room and record the usable wall length, depth available from the wall to the walking path, and any windows, radiators, tables or outlets that constrain the layout. Mark where doors swing and how much clearance the room needs in use. A sofa that fits against a wall can still block circulation or a coffee table.
Measure the narrowest doorway, corridor, stair turn and lift along the delivery route. If a sofa is modular, ask which sections arrive separately and record each section’s packed dimensions. Compare the packed measurements with the route, not only the assembled sofa’s width.
| Measurement to send | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Available wall length and room depth | Sets the maximum footprint while preserving circulation. |
| Preferred overall width, depth and height in cm | Defines the outside dimensions for the proposed design. |
| Seat height and seat depth preference | Helps align sitting comfort with the intended users. |
| Door, corridor, stair and lift clearances | Lets the team check delivery and assembly access. |
| Left/right chaise orientation | Prevents a mirror-image sectional from arriving. |
2. Decide on layout and comfort
Choose a straight sofa when the usable wall is simple. For a corner or chaise layout, show the chaise side on a floor plan viewed from above and label it in words; “left” can otherwise mean different things depending on where the viewer stands. Include the number of seats, whether an ottoman is separate, and any required removable modules.
For a custom luxury sofa set, OKKHM describes upholstery and structural customization, plus requests such as seat depth, firmness and backrest angle. These are options to discuss for that model, not guaranteed specifications for every sofa. Ask for a dimensioned drawing and a written specification for your configuration.
3. Shortlist upholstery by use, then confirm a swatch
OKKHM’s sofa listing mentions velvet, flannel and linen upholstery choices. Appearance in a product photo can differ from a physical swatch under the room’s lighting. Request the current material and color samples for the chosen model before approving production.
| Choice | What to check on the sample | Useful question for a quote |
|---|---|---|
| Velvet | Color shift as the pile changes direction; texture under daylight. | What is the exact fabric code, composition and care method? |
| Flannel | Hand feel, weave, visible wear on the sample. | Is the chosen color currently available for this model? |
| Linen or linen-look fabric | Texture and how the chosen upholstery handles cleaning. | What is the composition and cleaning guidance for this swatch? |
| Leather, if offered for the selected model | Type, grain, color variation and care requirements. | Is it genuine leather or synthetic, and which surfaces use it? |
For frequent public use, ask for documented abrasion, cleaning and fire-test information for the exact fabric and market. A generic “commercial grade” label cannot replace the relevant test report. Confirm cushion cover removability, frame and foam details in writing for the specific order.
4. See the starting design, then specify your version
Review OKKHM’s Nordic wooden-frame sofa set or the custom luxury sofa set as visual starting points. The product pages show customizable sizes and color/material choices; request the current option list and an itemized quotation instead of assuming a photographed sofa has the exact size or covering you need.
5. Send one clear brief for MOQ 1
OKKHM accepts enquiries from one piece. For a useful quote, include the product URL or photo, delivery country, quantity, preferred outside dimensions in cm, layout/orientation, preferred fabric code or desired appearance, target delivery date and any access constraints. Ask the team to confirm the final drawing, fabric, packing dimensions, lead time, shipping terms and price before payment. Availability and price depend on the chosen design.
Next step: Use the custom furniture RFQ template to send those details in one message. You can also browse OKKHM products for a reference design.
Frequently asked questions
Can I order one customized sofa?
Yes, OKKHM advertises MOQ 1 for custom furniture enquiries. Confirm which changes are feasible, sample costs, price and production time for the exact model before ordering.
Which measurements are needed for a custom sofa?
Send a room plan, desired overall width, depth and height, preferred seat height and depth, and the narrowest delivery clearances. For a sectional, mark the chaise side on the plan.
Can I choose a fabric from a photo?
A photo is a starting reference. Request a current swatch and the exact material code, composition and care guidance for your selected model before approving upholstery.
