Finding the right pieces shouldn't feel overwhelming. The right furniture store in Lexington, KY offers curated selections that enhance your space rather than fill it.
According to IBISWorld, the revenue of U.S. furniture stores has increased at a CAGR of 2.3% over the past five years — a sign of growing appetite for pieces that genuinely transform a home.
At Marais Home, every selection is hand-picked by designer Katie DesMarais. Here are the pieces defining a more design-forward, curated approach to home furnishing in Lexington.
1. Sculptural End Tables and Side Tables
Living-space tables should be functional art — beautiful from every angle, useful in every room. Our current favorites:
- Jocelyn End Table in raw black iron (also available in dark brass)
- Dalston Nesting End Tables in antique rust
- Reeves End Table with distinctive detailing
Each piece is chosen for its silhouette and craftsmanship. The right side table elevates the home decor in your Lexington living room from ordinary to intentional.
2. Statement Sofas
The right sofa anchors a room. From classic silhouettes to relaxed contemporary frames, these pieces set the tone for everything else:
- Leo Sofa 86" for generous, sculpted seating
- Brooke Sofa 78" with tailored, structured lines
- Adler Sofa for soft, lounge-forward comfort
A sofa is a long-horizon purchase. These furniture selections are built to be lived on and to look better as your room grows around them.
3. Distinctive Dining Tables
The dining table is where rooms become rituals. The pieces below are built to invite conversation and last for generations:
- Figueroa Dining Table in light beige travertine
- Miera Dining Table, 84"
- Castro Dining Table 118"
A quality dining table is an investment in countless meals and memories. The best Lexington furniture finds are the ones that become heirlooms.
4. Curated Accent Chairs and Seating
Character-rich seating makes every corner of a home feel intentional. The Kadon Swivel Chair in camel sheepskin and the Burke Chair are two pieces we keep returning to — distinctive enough to anchor a corner, comfortable enough to live with every day.
5. Sophisticated Consoles and Storage
Storage doesn't have to sacrifice style. Our most-loved current pieces:
- Daliyah Sideboard, 72"
- Peterson Long Console in dark finish
- Adolfo Sideboard
These pieces solve real storage needs while elevating the room. They hide what should be hidden and display what deserves to be seen.
Working with a Designer to Make It All Fit Together
Choosing individual pieces is the easy part. Making them work together — proportions, sightlines, layered lighting, the right rug to anchor the room — is where most homes get stuck. That's why Katie offers in-home design consultations in Lexington, KY: 90-minute walk-throughs and custom space planning that takes the guesswork out of the room before you buy a single piece.
How to Style Curated Furniture in Your Home
A few rules of thumb we share with every design client:
- Mix vintage pieces with new ones — contrast creates character.
- Layer textures (leather + linen + wool + stone) before you layer color.
- Choose complementary tones drawn from your boldest piece, not from a paint chip.
- Leave at least 18 inches for walking paths around major furniture.
Smart styling is what makes a curated collection feel like a home rather than a showroom.
