Furniture for a less stressful time



Stressless is internationally regarded as one of the world leaders in delivering elegant and functional recliners, sofas, home theatre seating and the world’s first reclining dining chairs.

Made in Sykkylven, Norway, its quest for perfection has uncovered many innovations; the Stressless Power Leg and Back System with an integrated electrical footrest, the Stressless Balance Adapt System that automatically adjusts to the user’s slightest movements, and the Stressless PlusSystem featuring advanced lumbar and neck support, an effortlessly smooth reclining glide system. Its patented head- rest design allows the user to read, watch TV and enjoy the company of their loved-ones in upright and reclining positions.

Stressless recognises that the feeling of comfort is unique to the individual and most of its recliners are available in three sizes, all of which include the patented Stressless features, and come in various bases, wood types, luxurious leather and fabric collections.

To find your personalised Stressless, visit Design Initial, Brisbane and Gold Coast to discover unrivalled comfort while adding a premium touch of bespoke design to the home or office.

Find Stressless at Design Initial Fortitude Valley, Shop 2 / 27 Doggett Street and Bundall, 91 Ashmore Road or head to designinitial.com.au.
