Trying to buy a settee with COLOUR stripes

Sooooo frustrating! It seems that no-one makes them! All the settees are beige or flowery! We can get floral settees which have colour but only chairs are available in stripes.
Laura Ashley will make them, expensive, but their styles aren't contemporary to go with our modern house.
Manufacturers will make them in beige and then we can buy the fabric from the same manufacturer to have the brand new settee recovered!!! Crazy!

I was just going to say Laura Ashley but you've already discovered them. Why not buy a decent second hand sofa and get it recovered?"Growth for growth's sake is the ideology of the cancer cell" - Edward Abbey.0

Is this the sort of thing you're after:

They also do it in a 2 seater and stool. The same company also do other striped sofa although not quite as bold. We bought a sofa from them 8 years ago and it was very good quality and good customer service.0 -

Thanks for looking everyone. Love the colours of the Darlings one but not the price, the Sofa sofa one is just two boring colours and we don't like the Laura Ashley style of it, curly arms and dinky feet.
Any more ideas? Have a look at the Rochester patchwork and Chatres stripes chairs in the Next range to see what material/colours we would like.0
