Arabic Sofas and Majlis Sets for Film, Photo and Podcast Studios

On camera, solid velvet seats with contrasting pillows usually read more clearly than busy stripes, and keeping the open side of the set toward the lens stops the frame from looking crowded. Send the camera position and the wall color with your request. Custom orders are photographed and filmed for your approval before they ship. Check the finished color on that video in daylight.

Every piece can be ordered on its own: seat cushions, backrests, corner backrests, armrests, pouf pillows, rugs and ottoman tables. Ask for an itemized list with your quote and keep it as the inventory sheet. The fabric code stays on your order, so a replacement armrest or cover can be ordered later in the same fabric.

Sets ship in several boxes, typically two or three for an L and more for larger layouts, and the boxes may arrive on different days. Ship to an address where someone can sign, count the boxes against the packing list on arrival, and leave a day in hand before the shoot.

Once the bags are open, the foam can't be pressed flat again at home, so storage has to hold every piece at full size. A dry room indoors, with the covers left on and the itemized list kept beside the set, makes the next production easier to pull together.

Ask us about fabric swatches and a foam sample before you order. For a quicker first check, the team can show the shortlisted fabrics on a video call in daylight, then confirm the color code you choose on the order.

Continuity is a fabric question. Solid colors are picked by number from the color card of our majlis fabrics, and the code goes on your order, so a cushion added halfway through a production comes from the same fabric line.

Fabrics are not mixed across collections, so a velvet floor sofa stays velvet from seat to backrest, and the thick kilim-style weave exists only on wooden-frame models. I would pick the seat color first and let the pillows carry the accent, because pillows are the quickest piece to swap between scenes.

Floor sofas lean on a wall or another firm surface, which suits a living-room or cafe-corner scene built against a flat. A tent scene, or a set dressed in the middle of the stage, needs something behind the backrests. Metal back supports are available on request, and a model with a wooden base and a wooden backrest stands on its own.

Put the shoot date, and the date the set must be on site, in your first message, and the team says plainly whether both can be met. Standard floor cushions are made in batches ahead of orders, which makes them the fast route. Ready-made sets are packed soon after payment — ask us for the current dispatch time.

Production time depends on your layout and the season — ask us for the current schedule. A production that needs one custom piece can start with standard modules and add it when it is ready.

Cushions travel pressed, rolled and vacuum-sealed, and they spring back once opened. Open the bags within about a week of delivery, and give the foam about a day to recover its full shape before anyone sits on camera.

Schedule the unpacking for the day before the shoot, not the morning of it. If the set moves on to a second location, book a van that takes every piece at full size.
