Orosco Design

My wife and I had a large Broyhill sofa/fold-out sleeper that was worn out; the fabric was thread-bare and the sleeper was uncomfortable; we needed a new couch. In addition, the sleeper made the couch heavy. When I wanted to move the sofa to vacuum, the weight of the sofa made deciding to vacuum around the couch an easier decision. But I liked the style of the couch, so I was hesitant to buy a new one. I finally decided to keep the Broyhill. I removed the fold-out sleeper. Then I started looking for an upholsterer to add a spring base (to replace the fold-out sleeper) and reupholster the entire couch. After several months of looking, I discovered Orosco Design. I called and explained what I wanted and Mr. Orosco assured me he could do the job as I wanted. My wife and I made a couple of trips to Mr. Orosco’s place to look at fabric, and we found one that my wife and Mr. Orosco believed would look good on the couch (I could not envision what the couch would look like once completely covered). After several weeks, Mr. Orosco called to say the couch was ready. He delivered the sofa soon after. Even though the rebuilding and reupholstering of the sofa was expensive (at least for me), overall, I am exceedingly pleased with the results of the work. The new spring base creates a firm sitting area, and without the fold-out sleeper, the couch is much lighter (I now move it when I vacuum the living room). Only two aspects of the reupholstering I’m not pleased with: (1) the sofa cushions do not fit tightly together; there is a space of about ½” between each seat cushion (the cushions fit tightly together previously), and (2) the piping on the seat cushions does not go all the way around the cushion’s two sides and front; instead, the piping covers the front and goes about three inches (3”) down each side. I would expect the piping to be complete on all three sides. I will eventually have one of the two rocking chairs in the living room reupholstered with fabric that goes with the sofa’s fabric, but that is down the road.

Orosco Interiors is much more than a "Blind" service. They perform major interior design and remodeling. I first used Orosco Designs some 20 years ago, and have used them regularly ever since. They know what they are doing and they can be trusted on every level, e.g., price, quality, integrity, workmanship, etc. Most recently they made two living room chairs for us, and we are very pleased with the results. We have recommended Don and Caroline Orosco to others over the years and no one ever had anything but high praise for them. Check them out at www.oroscodesign.com.
