Mixing Product Styles in 3 Simple Design Steps
Step 1 | Select Your Urban Attitudes Sofa (2 Styles)
Your dream room starts with the right sofa. Designed to be customized, Urban Attitude sofas, loveseats and sectional pair seamlessly with other frames from the collection. From classic to contemporary, choose one to match your unique style and needs.
At La-Z-Boy, we believe there is a ‘right’ seat for everyone considering body dimensions. Make sure the Urban Attitudes sofa or chair seat height, depth and width are made explicitly for you.
ALEXANDRIA SOFA AND LOVESEAT
An updated take on the classic Chesterfield design, the Alexandria sofa isn’t afraid to make a statement. Its tight back boasts button tufting in a diamond pattern that’s both distinctive and unique. Extra cushioning softens Alexandria’s sloped rolled arms while adding a modern twist. Slender, tapered wood legs complete the stately silhouette.

Whether you’re designing a whole new room, or adding a sofa to existing pieces, Bexley blends right in, with its clean, tailored lines and welt trim detailing. Slightly flared, key-shaped arms frame its three roomy seats for a unique, yet uncomplicated silhouette. Also available in a full and queen sleeper.

Upgrades and Options For the Urban Attitudes Collection
Take some time to investigate your options so that your new furniture doesn’t suit your home; it suits your way of living. Furniture options are easy add-ons for minimal up-charges and a great way to make sure you are getting one that is precisely right for you. The Urban Attitudes series has various customizations, but some upgrades and options noted below may only be available on specific styles and frames.
Upholstery / Cover Options
Your choice of fabric or leather upholstery is a pivotal decision when selecting a sofa for your home. Styles in the Urban Attitudes Collection have hundreds of fabric and leather cover options outside of the pre-selected iClean swatches to custom-create a look that’s uniquely yours. Choose from the latest colours, patterns and textures. There are options to suit every style and budget.
A subset of covers are available in “conserve” fabric. Soft, durable, and sustainable fabric made out of recycled water bottles. This eco-friendly material uses as many as 100 recycled water bottles to cover a standard sofa.
As with conventional furniture fabrics, conserve covers are wear-tested for safety, quality and durability. So, they stay comfortable and beautiful for years after delivery. They come in a wide range of colours and patterns to complement your room.
If you have pets, you might consider taking advantage of our Pet-Friendly fabric that has a high level of cleanability and durability, including the iClean technology.
Another specialty fabric option at La-Z-Boy is the antimicrobial fabric. This fabric protects against mould, mildew, and odour-causing bacteria

Seat Cushions
Wood Finish
Give your sofa legs a completely custom look with a different wood finish. Match your current décor or add striking contrast. Sofas in the Urban Attitudes Collection come standard in a brown mahogany finish with three optional finishes: coffee, graphite, driftwood.
Contrasting Welt Trim
Welt trim provides a tailored look to cushions and pillows but takes on an entirely new dimension in a contrasting colour. An unexpected touch, this decorative detail adds instant personality and highlights the sculptural lines of any silhouette.
NailHead Trim
Commonly used in more traditional pieces, nailhead trim is making a comeback. It accentuates the design lines of sofas, adding a handcrafted look that is both rustic and contemporary. Some Urban Attitudes styles have brass, platinum and black nailhead colour options.
Pillows
Are you looking for that perfect accent piece? Sofas from Urban Attitudes Collection come with matching pillows. But if you are going for a bolder look, you can opt to get them in a contrasting cover that will set your furniture apart. Also, you can choose to add either a cord or fringe pillow edge treatment.
Add down fill feathers and upgrade your pillows to FeatherLite Comfort.

What people are saying about the Urban Attitudes Collection:
Best fit for my Alexandria condo!
“I fell in love with this sofa and loveseat, and when I found out it was in stock, I was sold! Very comfortable, sophisticated, and can blend with many types of decor. With the back as it is, they are not as deep in floor space but still have plenty of seat depth. I’m 5’10”. This gives me more room in my dining area. Excellent for small spaces. Never would have expected something this pretty from La-Z-Boy!” JULIA L.
Love this chair! (Bellevue)
“I love my chair! I love the look and the comfort. The style is so versatile, it goes with any décor. I would definitely recommend.” SUSAN M.
Great purchase!
“Love my new Bexley sofa and love seat. They work perfectly in my sunroom. I like the style, the firm cushions and that it is not too deep for my feet to reach the floor when I sit there! We have had this set for approximately 6 months.” BARBRA W.
