Couch Seattle began in a basement in Fremont in 2008. Today we've grown in to a 3500ft showroom in the heart of Capitol Hill. We are proud to be a Seattle business through and through. While online competitors rush to scale, we focus on different priorities: craftsmanship, customization, and a considered retail experience.
We love when a couch is a fresh new play on an old theme, an homage to a classic, a truly original design, or even a quiet, unassuming family-room piece that does its job year after year.
Couch Seattle began in a basement in Fremont in 2008. Today, we’ve grown into a 3,000-square-foot home on Ballard Avenue, a Seattle business through and through. While online competitors rush to scale, we focus on what lasts: craftsmanship, customization, and a deeply considered experience from start to finish.

We believe in choice. From carrying one of the largest selections of fabric and leather in the industry to offering a half dozen wood species for our legs, we pride ourselves on providing a world-beating range of curated options.
We’re custom builders in the truest sense. At Couch, “custom” doesn’t just mean choosing blue instead of gray. It means designing a sofa in your exact size, style, and comfort specifications. If you like one of our styles but need it taller, deeper, or something in between, come chat with one of our designers. We’ll help you find the right fit for your space.

We believe in genuine customer service, not as a selling point, but as the reason we’re still here. Every client deserves attention, transparency, and long-term support.
Our team is dedicated to helping you find the perfect sofa, chair, or sectional for your home. Built right, built once, and built to last.

Many clients come to us wanting a chemical free couch that promotes a healthy environment and clean air. Fewer people are quite as clear on what that involves. We are here to help our clients understand the ins and outs of eco-friendly couch construction and how that affects the cost of the finished product.

Some green features come standard: We use kiln dried NW Alder, low VOC wood glue and water-based stains in all our frames. Our standard foam is a product called Certipur, which is free of the big-name flame retardants like chlorinated tris, PBDE’s and formaldehyde.
You can learn more about it here. Very few, if any, of our fabrics are treated with flame retardant chemicals. If you are curious about the fabric you’re interested in just ask and we can check on it for you!

If you would like to get deeper into natural and chemical free materials, we would start by replacing all the polyurethane foam with latex. Latex is either 100% natural or 70% natural and 30% lab made rubber.
Unlike Certipur, we can say with confidence that there are no flame retardants or added chemicals in latex. Latex is fairly more expensive than polyurethane foam, but it also lasts at least twice as long as even the heaviest conventional foam. To further avoid flame retardants, Dacron, our polyester batting, can be swapped out for wool batting.

For clients who are looking for materials that are 100% natural, we offer cotton linen and wool options. COUCH also carries a line of natural fibers that are organic and have low environmental impact production processes.
Going with a heavy-duty velvet, microfiber or leather can be another way to reduce the environmental impact of your couch. While these are not as eco-friendly as natural fabrics, they last a very long time delaying the waste of reupholstery.

Every element is carefully considered, from screwed frames to padding everywhere, our sofas feel substantial and weigh substantially more than those at the U-Village.
Each detail is designed with your space and your personal comfort top of mind.
Built to stand up to whatever life brings your way,
or it's on us.
