Visitor Testimonials
Here are some of the great things people are saying about SOFA:
"I just wanted to send a little note to say how wonderful the SOFA Scent Event was. Tracy Pepe has a ton of inspiring information. Her workshop was very helpful and I loved that she shared some of her resources for scenting. It will definitely come in useful in decorating and staging. And of course, thanks to Pittsburgh Paints for sponsoring the event. I really appreciated being part of it." - Heidi Pelzl, Heidi Pelzl Design Decorating, Styling, Staging
"Thank you for presenting the SOFA Feng Shui & Design event. It was informative and very enjoyable. Fawn Chang is a lovely person to listen to and so knowledgeable, we were lucky to have her with us." - Michelle Finnnamore
"Thank you for the Durham Furniture Factory Tour. I thoroughly enjoyed the day. All the people we met at Durham are a wealth of information, and their friendliness and hospitality made us feel so welcome.
I have been in their showroom at SOFA, but I must say, to actually see the process certainly gave me a new appreciation for what it take to go from piles of wood to the beautiful finished furniture they create. It’s given me extensive understanding of what is involved at every stage, so that I can better explain to my client what they can expect when they purchase a Durham Furniture piece in comparison to cheap furniture on the market. I now, personally, feel more confident that my client is getting quality material and workmanship, and I’m sure this will come through even more so to future clients. As someone whom my clients put their trust in, it feels good to justify that their money is well spent, and a good investment for many years to come.“ - Christina, Maria Christina Interiors
“Thank you for doing a fabulous job of organizing the event to Durham Furniture. I was really fascinated with all the stages it takes to make their furniture. Our guide, Allan, was very patient and was able to answer lots of questions. We got to see and understand various and complex steps in the shaping, cutting, sanding, staining and finishing the case goods before shipment to the end user. The quality, care, and inspection were thorough and impressive.
It is very important for designers and decorators to understand the procedures involved in making quality furniture, to further help their clients make wise choices that will last a lifetime. Thank you once again.” - Brenda Rishea, Decorating Consultant
"The Durham Furniture tour was very enjoyable and informative. I was very impressed with Durham Furniture. I appreciate the fact that transportation was included, and I look forward to more tours in the future with some of your other suppliers. Although it took up a full day, it was worthwhile, and sometimes it's nice to take a break from the office." - Annamaria Ierullo, Annamaria Interior Design, www.annamariainteriordesign.com
"On behalf of the CDECA Awards Committee, I am writing to thank SOFA for sponsoring the Green Category in the 2011 CDECA Decorating and Design Competition. Our 2011 competition was again a great success with nearly 100 entries and a tremendously high standard of work. We cannot run this competition without our sponsors, so we are very grateful for your support." - Deborah Casey, On behalf of the Canadian Decorators' Association (CDECA) Awards Committee
