Apartment design, Chestnut Hill, Phila.

Ikea's brilliant Stocksund sofa and armchair (which come flat-packed) allowed us to get the pieces up a narrow staircase and give the client the comfortable, traditional look she desired. A plus for a family with young children: The slipcovers are washable. The medley of Ikat pillows came from Etsy artisans Castaway Cove, With Lavender and Grace, and Vivid Hues. The wing chairs were reupholstered.
