Solenne Living Set — Austins Solenne Living Set - Austins

Two forms, one language — the rust body and cream seat in perpetual contrast, built the way Bangalore's best artisans have always worked: slowly, carefully, without compromise.

I wanted the arm to feel like a column — something you notice from across the room before you sit down. The gap between arm and back isn't a detail; it's the whole statement. The barrel arc needed a fabric that could travel its curve without a single pucker, and the rust boucle we chose does exactly that. Dense, warm, and unapologetically itself.

The Making of the Solenne Living Set

Designed by Harsha

At our Bangalore workshop, the barrel back is shaped over a solid foam shell and wrapped in a single sweep of rust boucle — no patchwork, no shortcuts. The arm columns stand independently, braced from the base, because the design demands they carry weight on their own terms.

01

Rust Boucle Shell

A rich rust boucle travels the full arc of the barrel back without a seam break — the pile stays consistent from arm column to crown, demanding precise hand-stretching at every curve. ::

02

Open-Arm Architecture

Each arm column is independently constructed and base-braced, creating the signature open gap that defines this set's silhouette — an upholstery challenge that separates craft from commodity. ::

03

Foam-Over-Frame Build

High-density foam is shaped directly over a solid internal frame to form the barrel shell, delivering a monolithic back that holds its arc through years of daily use.

Frequently Asked

Before You Order

How long does it take to make the Solenne Living Set?
6–8 weeks from order confirmation. We build one piece at a time — frame first, then upholstery, then a final hand-finish — so the timeline reflects real bench-time, not warehouse stock.
Can I customise the dimensions, leather, or wood?
Yes. Almost every dimension can be adjusted within structural limits, and the leather and wood swatches shown are starting points — speak to a designer if you'd like us to source something specific.
How does delivery work, and where do you ship?
We deliver across India with white-glove placement included. International shipping is available on request — our team will coordinate freight, customs, and last-mile placement at the destination.
What does payment look like for a custom piece?
A 50% deposit confirms the order and reserves your build slot in the atelier. The balance is due before dispatch. We'll share a transparent quote with material and labour breakdown after the consultation.
What if something needs repair years from now?
Every piece carries a lifetime craftsmanship guarantee. Reupholstery, refinishing, and frame repair are handled in-house — a piece built today can be brought back to the workshop a decade from now and restored.
