For someone known for personally designing using handmade means, John Derian uses only a handful of people to unleash the oversized and dramatic designed sofas that are suitable for dividing a large space. Based on 17th century classic pieces, the sofas which range between $1,950 to $5,100 are certainly a costly but worthy investment for people who want a trendy and classy home that has limitations of space to boot.

The first collection from Derian includes the Cove sofa, the Geranium sofa, the Dromedary loveseat, the Fritillaria chair and the Field bench. The styling is based on 17th century French pieces and mid-century designs. Retail prices range from $1,950 to $5,100.

The line will be offered in upholstered or slipcovered, except for the tufted bench, which only comes upholstered. Only two colors - oyster, a soft white, and flax, an ecru - are offered in a linen made by a Belgian company that has been making linen since the 1850s.
