OPA Living: hand-upholstered sofas and beds in the United Kingdom

OPA Living is a British firm dedicated to the design and manufacture of hand-upholstered sofas, beds, headboards and modular furniture. Its catalogue is organised into closed collections —including Alpha, Amalfi, Cloud, Coco, Gala, Kona, Lola, Lusto, Marylebone, Nobu, Oscar, Poka, Roma, Romeo, Sienna, Sky, Storm, Kenza, Maddox, Brooklyn, Kyla and Snug— and is completed by a line of occasional furniture and home accessories. The company presents its production as handcrafted and made in Britain, and backs its sofa frames with a lifetime guarantee.

Sofa types and configurations

The seating range covers a wide variety of formats: two-, three- and four-seater sofas, L-shaped sofas, corner sofas, U-shaped sofas, chaise longues, armchairs, loveseats and cuddle chairs, as well as complete sets. The firm also distinguishes a modular sofa line and a flat-pack sofa line, with models such as Cocoon, Nest and Poka. The selection can be filtered by colour —beige, black, blue, brown, cream, green, grey— and by fabric type, with options in luxe velvet, bouclé, linen and fabrics named Kobi, Palermo, Olympia and Fernando.

Beds, headboards and rest

The rest section includes upholstered bed frames, luxury beds, storage beds, ottoman beds, divan beds, panel beds, wingback beds and adjustable beds, as well as bespoke models and a line presented as "hotel-worthy". They are organised by size —double, king size and super king size— and by fabric and colour. The company also sells headboards, both as headboard-with-bed versions and as individual panels. In mattresses it offers the Nanosleep line in its Core 800, Hybrid 1000, Pro 1000 and Luxe 1200 variants, the latter also in mattress-in-a-box format, alongside adjustable memory foam options and traditional mattresses.

Occasional furniture, dining and décor

Beyond the living room and bedroom, the catalogue includes dining tables, chairs, bar stools and bar furniture. The décor section brings together coffee and side tables, mirrors, rugs, cabinets, clocks, sculptures, wall art and home textiles. The company offers free fabric samples and a made-to-measure service, and maintains a specific programme for industry professionals (Trade Program) alongside a free design advisory service.

Lead times, finance and purchasing

The site indicates express delivery within two weeks as a general rule and a selection of sofas from the Cloud collection available for delivery in seven days in certain in-stock fabrics and colours. Purchases can be split with 0% interest finance over twelve months, and major debit and credit cards are accepted through its payment gateway. The company also sells optional insurance covering accidental stains, damage and structural defects, which is limited to UK residents.
