We recently wrapped up an installation at the Pease Tradeport in Portsmouth that earned a superlative in our shop: the biggest seat cushions we’ve ever made. These generous curved window benches were one of the final elements in a full office makeover designed by Office Interiors of Dover, NH, and they made quite a finish.
Because of the sweeping curves, this wasn’t a “measure once, cut once” situation. Each bench was carefully templated on site using paper patterns, which came back to the shop with us for the real fun. We cut and laminated layers of foam to match the arch perfectly, shaped everything by hand, and wrapped it all in batting to soften the edges and smooth the lines.
From there, we sewed and fitted the finished covers, creating cushions that are as comfortable as they are substantial. It’s always satisfying to see a project come together—especially when it pushes our scale a little further than usual. These benches are built for real use, and we love being part of spaces that invite people to sit down, settle in, and stay awhile.
