ABOUT
Dara Maison is the inaugural furniture collection created by Dara Huang—Designer, Architect and Founder of Design Haus Liberty
Dara Maison brings together luxury statement pieces, inspired by nature that are handcrafted, sustainable and most importantly designed to last.
Organic, raw materials and high quality fabrics create an authentic approach to luxury with functional furniture. The finest world materials, left unengineered, are juxtaposed with carefully selected soft finishes including hand selected fabrics to create furniture which is sustainably sourced, created and ecologically friendly.
The furniture collection offers a full range of colour choices from an exclusive palette inspired by organic and natural colours, bringing a natural environment into the home.
Each unique piece is engineered from the highest quality materials to last the test of time. Smart solutions and built in storage creates furniture that is as practical as it is eye-catching.
Each piece of Dara Maison Furniture is built using expert craftsmanship all delivered by hand. A team of skilled artisans with expertise across all areas of production work together to deliver excellence and quality.
Our workshops source materials locally and take a sustainable approach, we use FSC Timber, our performance fabric is made sustainably sourced yarn and our creators ensure minimal waste of material as well as incentives for staff in giving back to the environment.
The concept of the Dara Maison furniture collection focuses on combining sculptural beauty with function and practicality.
Designed for Comfort, Built to Last
A MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER
Dara Maison represents something that I have always wanted to create and own, which is a designer sofa and furniture range that has an accessible price point. Innovative, luxurious design that takes its power from its sculptural elements.
The motivation behind this line was to create a designer range that was beautiful, accessible, comfortable, and family friendly - thanks to our highly developed stain proof fabrics. Because I have a child, and I'm a working single parent it was important to me that these pieces are stain proof and durable.
Creating Dara Maison began with exploring why traditional furniture was so expensive and what set apart 'high quality' furniture from mass produced items.
Firstly, we found that the escalating costs were because of the middle men involved in the production process. Dara Maison cuts out the middle men, bringing a direct to consumer line that focuses on the creators and craftsmen, the design and the end product.
Second, we wanted to dissect what makes quality furniture and we quickly learnt what was on the inside and in the details. All of our furniture is built with solid beechwood frames, with hand crafted dowel joints to ensure longevity. Our seams finished with piping to prevent stretching and movement.
The end result is a collection of beautifully designed furniture that is made to last the way our parents' furniture used to. Functional, comfortable furniture that you don't have to be afraid to use and enjoy. Quality that is given directly to the consumer in a family friendly range that works with children (and adults) but also stands out as incredibly beautiful luxury pieces for entertaining and setting high standards at home, pieces that I am proud to have and use in my own home.
