EXTRACT TAKING FROM THE GUARDIAN UNLIMITED FEATURE:  Stairs pose a problem for our new sofa !

We need a comfortable sofa, with washable covers, to give a room a light, airy, beach-house feel. There is plenty of space for a large sofa, but it will have to go down some narrow (60cm wide) stairs. We don't like the look of flat-pack sofas - will we have to have something custom-made?

"We've spoken to several manufacturers and, given the narrowness of your stairwell, your only option is to go for a self-assembly sofa. Bespoke sofa company Harris Design www.harris-design.co.uk (01252 617120, ) will make you a sofa, deliver it in modules, then assemble it on site. It has lots of styles to choose from and will adjust the details to suit your requirements. "
