Find My Style

EZ Living Interiors brings technology to shoppers to help hone our design style and plan our spaces with confidence. 

Playing house is hands down the best game for all of us who love moving furniture around and changing cushions to give a quick refresh to a space. 

But when it comes to giving a room a complete change of identity with new furniture and accessories, it can feel a little daunting trying to make choices that work together and won’t induce buyer’s regret in time. 

EZ Living Interiors has a one-hour interior design consultation service for £49 with an in-house interior designer, either in-store or by video call, with a focus on advice on furniture layouts, integrating new purchases with what you already have, styling advice and a product list. 

It’s a lot packed into just 60 minutes and the option to choose if you like the idea of having support and guidance from a design pro.

For DIY interior designers and those of us who would like to give it a go ourselves, there’s a selection of focused online tools for optimal playing house sessions to use free of charge. 

If you had a doll’s house back in the day and spent hours arranging furniture, you’ll love the online Room Designer, a feature where you’re presented with an empty room ready to add furniture, accessories, wall and floor colours from the website, even the width of your own room, with an all-essential running total of the financial commitment. 

As I happen to have a bedroom in need of attention, Room Designer focused my choices which were low on colour and high on texture, so my final selection included the super-cuddly Teddy bouclé bedframe in cream, the Malmo parquet-style wooden bedside lockers and tall boy, the Renuu vintage rug, the gold trimmed Quinn round and Bronte full-length mirrors, and a selection of occasional furniture, lamps and art.

It can be played with endlessly, adding and subtracting pieces until you arrive at the look you want, and if you’re a night owl like me who loves a browse when the phone and email are quiet, a new 24-hour a day AI chat feature can guide you to particular products and make suggestions if you’re looking for a theme or trend. 

Room Designer needs zero interior design or space-planning skills to use. It’s creative and adaptable and given the fun quotient involved, somewhat addictive in the best way possible as you play with endless possibilities and save your room designs for musing on later.

Even if you’re just looking for a room refresh with occasional furniture and accessories and are not in the market for big ticket items like a sofa, you can add one from the website that resembles your own and build new pieces around it to see how they work together.

Sometimes you may prefer to have sofa and chairs match. Here’s where the Complete Your Look tool comes in, throwing up suggestions to add to your room design. It means, say, the Heritage dining table with its traditional design can have a completed look with a matching sideboard and bench, or the new chocolate brown Scott sofa can meet its match with the Scott footstool.

If you’re a shopper who made an impulse purchase in the past and bought something too big, you’re not alone. It’s easy to think something will fit when seen in a large showroom and easier still to have only measured the length to fit your space and forgotten the depth. This is where the Sofa Sizer feature is invaluable.  

You can even take it a step further to see how the sofa will look in your own living space with the View In Room tool, available on mobile. Using augmented reality technology it offers an online experience where you feel you’ve taken the product home to try it out.

Modular sofas are back and it’s hard to imagine why they ever went out of fashion given their versatility, with individual components allowing you to build a sofa to suit your space and make sure everyone gets a comfortable seat to relax. 

Enter the Modular Sofa Configurator which can take a model like the Maya and configure corner modules, chaise longue elements and armless pieces into the shape you want with all the fun of doing a jigsaw puzzle.
