Meet Maine: Our New Coastal-Inspired Sofa That Feels Like Home
There’s something unmistakably Australian about the way we live at home. Doors open easily to the outdoors. Light moves freely through our spaces. Furniture is designed to be lived in, shared, and enjoyed through every season.
The Maine lounge was created with this way of living in mind. A new addition to our collection, the Maine slipcover sofa is a thoughtful balance of comfort, practicality, and understated elegance — designed for homes that embrace natural textures, relaxed living, and the quiet rhythm of everyday family life.
Available as a generous 3 seater or a 3 seater with chaise, the Maine offers flexibility for a range of living spaces, from open-plan coastal homes to relaxed suburban retreats.
Inspired by the Coast, Designed for Real Life
Inspired by Australia’s coastal beauty, the Maine slipcover sofa brings a laid-back elegance to everyday living. Its silhouette is relaxed yet refined — never over-styled, never rigid. Instead, it reflects the kind of comfort that feels instinctive, the kind that invites you to slow down.
Deep, feather-wrapped cushions encourage you to stretch out and stay a little longer. Whether it’s a lively family gathering, an afternoon spent reading with the windows open, or a quiet morning coffee before the day begins, the Maine becomes a natural anchor point for daily life.
This is a sofa that doesn’t ask to be admired from afar. It’s meant to be lived on — casually, comfortably, and without compromise.
A Linen Fabric Made for Summer Living
In Australian homes — particularly in coastal cities like Perth — summer isn’t just a season. It’s a state of mind. Long, warm days, salty air, and a constant interplay between indoor and outdoor living call for furniture that feels breathable, light, and effortless.
The Maine’s linen-blend slipcover is perfectly suited to this lifestyle. Naturally textured and softly relaxed, it brings an airy ease to living spaces, making it an ideal choice for warmer months. Linen’s tactile quality adds depth and warmth without feeling heavy, creating a space that feels cool in summer and inviting year-round.
Paired with its removable slipcover design, the Maine offers an approach to luxury that’s refreshingly practical. Easy to care for, low-maintenance, and resilient, it’s designed to support real life — sandy feet, busy households, and all the beautiful messiness that comes with them.
Slipcover Design: Practical, Thoughtful, Timeless
At the heart of the Maine lounge is its removable slipcover — a feature that quietly transforms how the sofa fits into everyday family living.
Slipcovers allow for flexibility and longevity. They can be removed for cleaning, refreshed over time, and enjoyed without the worry that often comes with upholstered furniture. It’s a design choice rooted in practicality, but elevated through thoughtful craftsmanship and premium materials.
This is accessible luxury at its best: beautiful, considered, and made to last — not just aesthetically, but functionally too.
Comfort That Feels Effortless
Comfort is central to the Maine’s design, but it’s never exaggerated. The feather-wrapped cushions offer a soft, sink-in feel while still providing enough structure to support everyday lounging. Over time, the sofa settles into itself, developing a lived-in quality that only enhances its appeal.
This sense of ease is intentional. Much like the Australian approach to interiors, the Maine avoids formality in favour of comfort, balance, and warmth.
Whether styled minimally or layered with textured cushions and throws, the Maine adapts easily — never dominating a space, always complementing it.
A Natural Fit for Contemporary Coastal Interiors
The Maine lounge sits comfortably within our Contemporary Coastal Collection, a curated range inspired by the tones, textures, and relaxed elegance of Australian coastal living.
Contemporary coastal style is less about overt nautical references and more about subtlety — sun-washed palettes, organic materials, and furniture that feels grounded and timeless. The Maine reflects this philosophy perfectly, pairing soft linen textures with a relaxed profile that feels at home in modern coastal interiors.

Designed for Perth Summers — and Beyond
Living in Perth means embracing long summers, indoor-outdoor flow, and homes that respond to light and heat. The Maine lounge is particularly well-suited to this environment — its breathable fabric, relaxed form, and easy-care slipcover making it a natural choice for warm climates.
But while the Maine shines in summer, it’s designed to transcend seasons. Layered with throws in winter or styled simply in warmer months, it remains versatile, relevant, and timeless.
The Maine Lounge: A Sofa for the Way We Live Now
At its core, the Maine slipcover sofa reflects a shift in how we think about home. Less about perfection, more about comfort. Less about trends, more about longevity. It’s a sofa designed to evolve with you — adapting to the rhythms of family life, seasonal change, and the everyday moments that make a house feel like home.
Thoughtfully made, beautifully relaxed, and quietly refined, the Maine lounge is more than just seating. It’s an invitation to slow down, gather together, and enjoy the simple luxury of living well.
How to Style the Maine Lounge
The beauty of the Maine lounge lies in its quiet versatility. Its relaxed slipcover and natural linen-blend fabric provide the perfect foundation for a layered, textural approach to styling — one that feels warm, lived-in, and effortlessly coastal.
Layer with Soft Neutrals and Natural Texture
Begin by building softness through cushions and throws in light, neutral tones. A mix of tactile fabrics creates depth without overwhelming the space. Linen and velvet add contrast, while boucle introduces warmth and comfort — ideal for relaxed family living.
Pair the Maine with cushions like the Linen Velvet Square Cushion in Stone and the Darby European Cushion in Natural White, allowing subtle tonal variations to keep the look calm yet considered. Drape a light, textured throw like the Ava Boucle Tassel Throw casually over the arm or chaise for an inviting, low-maintenance finish — the kind that encourages everyday use rather than perfection.
Anchor the Space with Timber and Handcrafted Pieces
Natural timber elements ground the softness of the sofa and reinforce its coastal sensibility. A solid timber coffee table, such as the Ember Coffee Table, adds warmth and organic character while maintaining a clean, contemporary feel.
Layer underfoot with a handwoven rug like the Zurich Textured Boucle Wool Rug in Caramel. Its rich texture and warm tone help define the seating area, adding comfort and cohesion — particularly in open-plan living spaces.
Add Gentle Art and Ambient Lighting
Wall art should feel intuitive rather than overly styled. Choose pieces that echo movement and softness, like the Wavy Hand-Painted Wall Art, which complements the Maine’s easy silhouette and enhances the sense of flow within the room.
Lighting plays a crucial role in creating atmosphere, especially in the evenings when the lounge becomes a place to unwind. The Callum Timber Floor Lamp is an ideal pairing. Its sculptural timber base and soft linen shade bring warmth and height to the space, casting a gentle glow that enhances the Maine’s relaxed character.
Placed beside the sofa or at the end of a chaise, the Callum lamp adds a subtle sense of balance — functional yet sculptural, much like the Maine itself.
Keep It Effortless
The key to styling the Maine lounge is restraint. Let materials speak for themselves. Avoid over-layering, and allow space for the room to breathe. This approach reflects the Australian coastal lifestyle — relaxed, practical, and designed for real life, particularly through Perth’s long summers.
With the right balance of texture, tone, and thoughtful pieces, the Maine becomes more than a sofa. It becomes the heart of a home — comfortable, calm, and beautifully lived in.
