Furniture and Home Accessories Suppliers

Whether it’s your first home or you’re redecorating or redesigning, choosing your furniture is a crucial step. It may be that you only need a few new pieces to complement the rest of your furnishings, or perhaps you need to fill your whole house with home accessories and furniture; whatever the situation you can find furniture designers, makers, manufacturers, retailers and suppliers on Houzz to help you fill and furnish your flat or house.

Why should I use a furniture designer or home accessories professional?

Think about what pieces you need or what your vision for the overall look of the room is. Do you have very specific ideas for what furniture you’d like or do you just know the colour palette or the basic type of furnishings and accessories you want? If you have very specific ideas it could be an option to look at bespoke furniture designers and makers. They will work with you to produce one-of-a-kind pieces to make your ideas come to life. Otherwise, it’s a fantastic idea to hire a home furnisher to help you choose furniture and accessories to work with your interiors. Professionals with years of experience will have a great eye for picking out the right pieces based on your brief and your room design, saving you the time and stress of hunting down the pieces yourself.

However, when not constrained by time, some homeowners can really enjoy the furniture hunting process. Tracking down unique or vintage home furnishings from furniture manufacturers, retailers, car boot sales, showrooms, auctions and home furnishing stores can be a real thrill, especially when you find exactly what you were looking for or perhaps something completely unexpected but brilliant nonetheless! If your budget can’t stretch to bespoke, designer or professional-picked pieces, this is also the best and most convenient option. Try browsing through the collections from a furniture manufacturer to see if they have any styles you like, or scour secondhand furniture shops and auction houses if you’re after something with a history.

If you’re hiring an interior designer, you may find that they work with various furniture suppliers and will be able to source furniture for your home more easily than you can. They will discuss with you the sort of furniture you need, contact the furniture suppliers and then give you their advice on which pieces to choose. It should be a flexible situation, so if you want to talk with the furniture suppliers yourself and pick out furniture designs yourself, you can.

It’s not all about the furniture, though. Your home accessories can provide the finishing touches to any room in the house. Table lamps, plants, cushions, rugs, candles, ornaments, artwork and picture frames are just a few of the accessories you can use to round off the style of your room and add personal touches. It’s easy to find ideas for these smaller furnishings with plenty of home furnishing stores and their products listed, as well as the furniture designers, manufacturers and makers.

Here are some basic things to consider before visiting a furniture designer or buying furniture and accessories from a supplier:

• What is my budget?
  
• What is the room used for and how large is the space?
  
• What are my must-have furniture items?
  
• What styles and colours do I want?
  
• Is there a design or theme I want my furniture to match?
  
• Do I want one-of-a-kind or vintage pieces?
  
• Do I want bespoke furniture made by a furniture designer?
