Are you looking for the Edge?
In the arena of soft seating we consistently hear the same words to describe product and how it conforms to our lifestyle. The true meaning of these words may possibly have been lost and at times taken for granted. They sound good but do they really relate to the product? Edge Design would like to remind you of why such words are used, while presenting you with our latest collection of products. Our “true†collection has been developed to redefine why such words should be used.
