We love people that live life to the fullest. From traveling abroad to returning home to a dramatic custom bedroom set, this fun loving couple doesn't know the meaning of 'slow down'. Their vibrant personalities demanded Pia's best work, their artistic talent required Pia's most original design.

Cobalt blue and whIte were the colors selected for the ultimate dramatic effect. The gleaming white finish of the furniture on top of the plush white carpeting evokes memories of 'The Great Gatsby'. The white croc vinyl on the upholstered headboard gives a textural feel to the room, and the lights under the bed add to the drama. The strong blue accent color emphasizes the shapeliness of the pieces. The oversized night tables actually look delicate, and the generous proportions of the double armoire designs stand out but yet are subdued.

Then there is the mirror and make-up table. The gentle curves of the mirror adds the highlight colors of salmon and teal. The make-up table has custom handles that share the design of the mirror.

Only the imagination deep in the creative areas of Pia and the client could dream up something so unique and so beautiful. A slim leather recliner and multi-colored end table complete the room.

Why do people shop at 'The Contemporary Couch'?

1. Experience....Pia and Larry have combined experience of over 50 years in the creative design field. Not just pretty designs, a solid background in business and treating valued clients in a very special way.
2. Creativity.....What value do you place on imagination? On individuality? On ideas? We don't have brown sectionals for 3 day delivery. We deliver dreams!
3. Bold designs....Playing it safe is not us. We push the design edge to bring you interiors as unique as you are.

Design Process

All of our bedrooms, dining rooms and media centers are designed by Pia and built one at a time by skilled craftsman. They are designed to fit the needs and taste level of the client.

Below are Pia's drawings, done by hand, to show you the first step in the process. All of the client's suggestions have been listened to, and together with Pia they have designed their dream bedroom.

Please watch a short video to get the full effect of this dramatic bedroom.

We don't want to knock other stores. We only want to emphasize our strengths. There are reasons we have long term relationships with most of our clients. There are reasons many become our friends, and there are reasons we flourish with a business built on recommendations from satisfied clients.

We care about you and your home. We really care that after delivery you come home every night after work and are proud of your new furniture. Don't discount the feeling of pride of ownership. It's a great feeling to have friends and family walk into your home and love what you've done. And remember, no one can walk into your home and say "I have the same one", because all of our designs are created just for you.

We hope to meet you soon in our brand new Paramus showroom.
