What a custom sofa means at Estre
A custom sofa at Estre is not a catalogue leftover with a new cushion cover. Estre Global Private Limited cuts the frame after you confirm size, configuration and upholstery. There is no ready warehouse of identical three-seaters waiting in a godown.
That is why a Whitefield 2BHK and a Sadashivanagar villa can order the same family of sofa — Gorhamm, Windsor, Hanex, Evara — and receive two physically different pieces. Seat count, lounger side, depth and fill change at the factory, not at a third-party upholsterer.
Estre’s commercial promise on sofas is four-fold: Perfect Fit, premium detailing, 60-plus starting sizes, and made-with-love finishing inside an approximately 40,000 sq. ft. plant. BIFMA certification and ISO compliance sit on the manufacturing side; 1,400+ five-star Google reviews sit on the customer side.
Who this sofa is for
Buy a custom sofa from Estre when a marketplace three-seater fights your TV wall, your balcony slider or your service lift. Indian apartments rarely share one living-room rectangle. A 2+lounger often seats a family more honestly than a stiff seven-seater that blocks the dining pass-through.
- 2BHK apartments that need a compact 3-seater or 2+lounger
- 3BHK and villa living rooms that want L-shape or modular runs
- Homes that must match an existing wall colour, drape or floor
- Households that want hard, soft, super-soft, latex or memory-foam fill
If you need a piece that also sleeps guests, start with the sofa cum bed guide instead of forcing a daybed mechanism onto a lounge sofa.
How to choose size and configuration
Measure the wall, then measure the walkway. Estre specialists at Kudlu Gate would rather shrink depth by 2–3 inches than force a showroom-standard seat into a tight Bangalore bay. Typical starting points:
| Home | Usual starting sofa | Watch-out |
|---|---|---|
| Studio / 1BHK | 2 seater or compact 3 seater | Door swing and window ledge |
| 2BHK apartment | 3 seater or 2+lounger | Lift door and stair width |
| 3BHK / duplex | 3+lounger or L-shape | TV viewing angle |
| Villa lounge | Modular, U-shape or curved | Conversation clusters, not one long wall |
Call out LHS or RHS lounger while you still have the room photo in hand. Swapping the chaise after cutting is a new job, not a free tweak. Read L-shape and U-shape sofas if the room turns a corner, or modular and curved sofas if you want a sculptural run like Evara.
The Estre difference on sofas
Factory-direct pricing exists because Estre sells to you, not through a mall lease. The biggest price driver is the cloth: a 3-seater uses about 12 metres, so moving from about ₹350 to about ₹1,800 a metre adds roughly ₹17,000 on the same frame. Every product page shows the MRP and the current festive price for its standard configuration.
Frames use solid pine or neem with engineered ply (commonly 12 mm or 18–22 mm depending on the piece). Cushions start in high-density foam; you can step into latex or memory foam. Recycled PET fibre sheets and recycled fabric boards are part of the standard build story — Estre does not claim teak palaces or Italian marble.
Outstation buyers in Hyderabad, Chennai, Kochi, Mysuru, Mumbai or Pune can still order. Extra logistics apply, and complimentary white-glove installation is a Bangalore promise. Estre does not advertise Delhi-NCR delivery.
Process, money and lead time
Most sofa orders follow a conversation, a size lock, a fabric lock, a 50–70% deposit and a 14–25 day build. Some product pages still print 25–30 days; treat 14–25 days from confirmation as the honest window. Expedite near 7 days is sometimes possible — ask, do not assume.
EMI is available on eligible invoices. Custom-from-your-reference-image work typically adds 15–20%. Because the sofa is cut for you, Estre does not run a trial period or a casual return desk. Company-error returns are the exception, documented on the delivery and returns page.

Mistakes Bangalore buyers make
Ordering a seven-seater because a render looked generous is the common one. The second is ignoring the lift: Estre asks for a service-lift door about 3 × 6 ft and 4 ft width, or stairs wider than 40 inches. Manual carry above the second floor can attract a fixed charge.
The third is picking velvet for a monsoon-open balcony edge, or leather for a west-facing glass wall, without talking sun and humidity. Use the fabric sofa guide and the leather guide before you lock colour.
