Becki Owens x Surya

When Southern California interior designer Becki Owens partnered with SURYA, the result created furniture that brings professional design quality into real homes. Since starting her design practice in 2001, Becki has built a following of over 1.5 million on Instagram who trust her eye for creating spaces that feel both polished and comfortable. Her work has appeared in Luxe Magazine, Wall Street Journal, and Architectural Digest, but she's most proud of making designer furniture accessible to families who want beautiful homes without the designer price tag.

SURYA brings serious manufacturing credentials to this partnership. The company operates from a one-million-square-foot headquarters in Cartersville, Georgia, and has earned recognition on the Inc 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies nine times. Their expertise in working with premium materials shows in every detail of this collection, from the grain-matched wood veneers to the precision of soft-close drawer glides. When you combine Becki's design sensibility with SURYA's production capabilities, you get furniture that looks expensive but remains within reach for most budgets.

This collection focuses on what Becki calls "stay-awhile pieces," furniture designed for actual living rather than just looking good in photos. The Lloyd Power Sectional reclines at the touch of a button because real people want to put their feet up. The Hermosa Bed pairs solid wood with handwoven rattan because texture matters in a bedroom. Every piece reflects decisions made by someone who understands how families actually use their furniture. You won't find delicate accent pieces that fall apart when kids climb on them or fabrics that stain the first time someone spills coffee.

The Becki Owens x SURYA line organizes into room-specific collections that work together or stand alone. This approach lets you furnish an entire room with coordinated pieces or add a single item that complements what you already own. The consistent design language across all categories means mixing pieces from different rooms still creates a cohesive look throughout your home.

Living Room Furniture

The living room collection centers on the Lloyd Power Sectional, a modular piece that adapts to different room layouts. Each section connects with concealed brackets that hold tight but allow you to reconfigure the arrangement when you move or rearrange. The power reclining mechanism uses quiet motors that extend the footrest and recline the backrest independently. Built-in USB ports on select models let you charge devices without getting up, addressing how people actually use their living rooms today. The Capitola Sofa and matching Accent Chair offer a more traditional seating option, with eight-way hand-tied springs that distribute weight evenly across the seat and prevent sagging over time.

Swivel chairs like the Pismo Glider and Loma series solve the problem of fixed seating in open floor plans. The 360-degree swivel mechanism mounts on a ball bearing assembly that turns smoothly without wobbling or squeaking. You can face the television, then turn to chat with someone in the kitchen without moving the entire chair. The Loma chairs come in grass green and blue, colors chosen specifically because they work with neutral palettes common in coastal California homes while adding visual interest.

Dining Room Solutions

Dining tables in this collection address the reality that most people need flexible seating. The Mollie Extension Dining Table starts at 72 inches and extends to 96 inches using a self-storing butterfly leaf that folds inside the table when not needed. You don't need to find storage space for loose leaves or worry about misplacing them. The Atra Wood Dining Table takes a fixed approach with a solid top in black-stained oak, measuring 84 inches to seat eight comfortably without extensions. The Stinson Banquette Bench pairs with either table, providing space-efficient seating along walls or in bay windows.

Wood choices matter in dining furniture because tables take daily abuse from plates, glasses, and serving dishes. Oak offers strong grain patterns that hide minor scratches better than lighter woods. Walnut brings warmth with its chocolate brown tones and ages to a deeper color over years. All tops receive multiple coats of catalyzed varnish, a professional-grade finish that cures harder than standard polyurethane and resists water rings from glasses and hot dishes.

Bedroom Furniture

The Hermosa collection brings together beds, dressers, and nightstands that share design details like fluted drawer fronts and brass hardware. The bed frame combines solid wood posts with handwoven rattan panels in the headboard and footboard. Rattan adds texture and visual warmth while remaining durable enough for daily use. The frame supports a standard box spring and mattress, with slats positioned close enough to prevent sagging but far enough apart to allow air circulation that prevents mold in humid climates.

Dressers in this collection include the Hermosa Wood Dresser with six drawers and a taller version with eight drawers for smaller rooms that need vertical storage. Drawer boxes use English dovetail joints at the corners, where interlocking fingers of wood create mechanical strength without glue. Soft-close glides from Italian manufacturer Salice prevent drawers from slamming, which protects both the furniture and the contents. Top drawers feature felt lining to protect jewelry and accessories from scratching.

Accent Tables and Storage

Console tables, coffee tables, and sideboards complete the collection with pieces designed for specific functions. The Eve Coffee Table combines a marble inset top with wood framing, using Carrara marble with its characteristic gray veining. The marble sits in a rabbeted recess, allowing the wood frame to protect the stone edges from chipping. The Altos Wood Console Table measures 72 inches long and 16 inches deep, proportions that work behind sofas or in hallways without blocking traffic flow. Three drawers provide hidden storage for remotes, charging cables, and mail.

Sideboards like the Atra and Mollie models offer dining room storage with cabinet doors that conceal adjustable shelves. These pieces stand 36 inches tall, a height that lets you display decor on top while keeping the surface accessible for serving during meals. The Morro Cabinet brings the same storage concept to living rooms, with cable management cutouts in the back panel for media equipment. Soft-close hinges on doors prevent slamming and extend the life of the cabinet by reducing stress on joints.

Quality furniture starts with proper wood selection and preparation. The Becki Owens x SURYA collection uses kiln-dried hardwoods that have been heated to specific temperatures to reduce moisture content to 6 to 8 percent. This process takes several weeks but prevents the warping and cracking that happens when wood dries too quickly or retains too much moisture. Oak, walnut, beech, and ash species appear throughout the collection, chosen for their distinct grain patterns and structural properties.

Oak contains dense cellular structure with pronounced rays that create the characteristic flecked appearance when quarter-sawn. This density makes oak resistant to denting from dropped items or furniture impacts. Walnut offers moderate hardness with rich chocolate to purple-brown coloring that darkens over time when exposed to light. Beech provides a fine, even grain that accepts stain uniformly, making it ideal for pieces that need consistent color. Ash features growth ring patterns similar to oak but with lighter natural color and slightly more flexibility, which helps chairs and benches absorb stress without breaking.

Joinery Methods That Last

The connection points in furniture determine how long it lasts under daily use. This collection employs several traditional joinery techniques executed with modern precision machinery. Mortise and tenon joints connect legs to aprons in tables and chairs, where a projecting tongue on one piece fits into a corresponding slot in another. Glue applied to both surfaces creates a bond stronger than the surrounding wood. Once dry, you would break the wood before pulling the joint apart.

Dovetail joints appear in drawer construction, with trapezoidal pins on one board interlocking with matching tails on another. The angled sides mean the joint can only come apart in one direction, and pressure from pulling the drawer tight actually strengthens the connection. English dovetails use through construction where the joint shows on the drawer front, demonstrating the quality of workmanship. Drawer bottoms sit in grooves routed into the sides and float without glue, allowing the wood to expand and contract with humidity changes without cracking.

Floating tenon joinery connects case pieces like cabinets and bookcases, where separate wooden biscuits or dominoes fit into slots cut in both pieces being joined. This method provides the strength of traditional mortise and tenon but allows faster production. The Marin Bookcase uses this technique to attach shelves to side panels, creating connections that support heavy books without sagging. Corner blocks add reinforcement at stress points, triangular pieces of wood glued and screwed into right angles to prevent racking.

Finishing Techniques

Wood finishes serve both protective and aesthetic purposes. Most pieces in this collection receive catalyzed varnish, a two-part finish that chemically cures rather than simply drying through solvent evaporation. The chemical reaction creates cross-linked polymers that form a harder, more durable surface than standard polyurethane. This finish resists scratches from keys and phones, water rings from glasses, and heat marks from coffee cups within reasonable limits. It maintains clarity over time rather than yellowing like oil-based finishes can.

Stained pieces go through a multi-step process starting with sanding to progressively finer grits, typically 120, 180, and 220. Stain penetrates into the wood fibers, with oil-based versions providing deeper color and water-based versions offering faster drying with less odor. The stain sits for specific times based on desired darkness, then excess gets wiped away before it can dry sticky. Multiple thin coats of finish follow, with light sanding between coats to remove dust nibs and create mechanical adhesion for the next layer. Final coats receive hand rubbing with fine abrasive compounds that level the surface to a satin sheen.

Upholstery and Fabric Selection

The fabrics on seating pieces balance appearance with practical durability. Performance linens treat natural fibers with soil-resistant finishes that cause liquids to bead on the surface rather than soaking in immediately. This gives you time to blot spills before they stain. The off-white linen on the Pismo Glider uses this treatment, making it suitable for family rooms despite its light color. Velvet upholstery combines synthetic fibers that provide the plush texture of silk velvet while resisting crushing and matting from daily use.

Leather options include aniline-dyed varieties that allow natural grain and markings to show through. This type of leather ages distinctively, developing patina where hands touch and lightening where sunlight reaches. The Richie Bench pairs leather upholstery with brass and wood legs, using top-grain leather from the hide's outer layer. This leather maintains the natural surface texture while removing imperfections through buffing. It requires conditioning every six months but rewards proper care with decades of service.

This collection targets specific customer needs beyond just aesthetic preferences. Young families appreciate the performance fabrics that handle spills without permanent staining and the sturdy construction that survives climbing children. The Lloyd Power Sectional's reclining features attract anyone who wants comfort after long workdays without sacrificing style. First-time homeowners find the coordinated collections helpful for furnishing multiple rooms with pieces that work together without hiring a designer.

Coastal and transitional design enthusiasts recognize Becki's signature aesthetic in the clean lines and neutral palettes. The furniture fits homes with white walls and natural wood accents, spaces that emphasize light and open floor plans. Retirees downsizing from larger homes need pieces that work in smaller spaces without looking miniature, which the Capitola Accent Chair and compact nightstands provide. Urban apartment dwellers benefit from modular sectionals that fit through narrow doorways and can reconfigure when moving to new spaces.

The price points position this furniture as a step up from mass-market brands but thousands less than high-end showrooms. Someone spending $3,000 on a sofa wants quality that lasts a decade or more. They're past the stage of temporary furniture but not ready to invest $10,000 in a single piece. The collection meets this middle ground with construction quality that justifies the cost while remaining accessible to middle-income buyers. Professional designers also use these pieces in client projects, knowing the lead times and customization options work within typical project schedules.

Lifestyle Considerations

Pet owners find the performance fabrics and leather options more forgiving than delicate materials that show every scratch. The solid wood construction prevents the particleboard damage that happens when dogs chew furniture legs. People who entertain frequently appreciate extension dining tables that adapt to different group sizes and the extra seating provided by benches that squeeze in more guests than individual chairs. Remote workers setting up home offices benefit from the console tables that function as desks, offering enough surface area for laptops and monitors without dominating small spaces.

Those with mobility concerns value the power reclining features on sectionals, which eliminate the physical effort of manual recliners. The 18-inch seat heights on dining chairs match standard table heights while remaining easy to stand from for those with knee or hip issues. Swivel chairs reduce the need to twist your body when turning to different areas of a room, which benefits people with back problems. These practical considerations integrate into designs that don't look like medical furniture, maintaining aesthetic appeal while adding function.

Investing in quality furniture changes how you experience your home daily. Solid wood pieces feel substantial when you move them, sit in them, or place items on them. This physical weight signals quality and creates psychological associations with permanence and stability. The Atra Dining Table won't wobble when someone leans on it during conversation or shift when you set down a heavy serving platter. This stability matters more than you might think until you've lived with unstable furniture that requires constant adjustment.

The coordinated aesthetic across the collection eliminates the guesswork from decorating. You can order a bed, dresser, and nightstand knowing they'll work together, or mix the Hermosa bedroom pieces with the Eve console table in your entryway. This coordination extends beyond matching wood tones to include details like hardware finish, leg styles, and proportional relationships between pieces. The result looks intentional rather than assembled from whatever was on sale at different stores.

Durability translates directly to value over time. A $3,000 sofa that lasts 15 years costs $200 per year. A $1,000 sofa that breaks down in 3 years costs $333 per year. The eight-way hand-tied springs in the Capitola Sofa will outlast the cheaper sinuous springs used in budget furniture by decades. Dovetailed drawers won't pull apart like stapled particleboard versions. These construction details matter because furniture should be something you replace by choice, not necessity.

Space Planning Advantages

The modular nature of sectionals and the variety of table sizes let you optimize furniture for your specific room dimensions. The Lloyd Sectional comes in multiple configurations, allowing you to create an L-shape for corners or a U-shape for open rooms. You measure your space, account for doorways and windows, then select pieces that fit without overwhelming the room or floating lost in oversized areas. Console tables range from 60 to 84 inches, providing options that span different wall lengths without leaving awkward gaps.

Standard furniture dimensions throughout the collection mean pieces from different categories work together spatially. Coffee tables sit at appropriate heights relative to sofas. Dining benches fit under table edges. Nightstands align with mattress heights. These proportional relationships require less thinking during setup and create visual harmony that makes rooms feel more balanced. The 16 to 18 inch depths on consoles prevent them from blocking hallways while providing usable surface area.

Proper maintenance extends the life of quality furniture from years to decades. Daily care requires minimal effort but prevents damage that expensive repairs can't always fix. Dust weekly using microfiber cloths that trap particles rather than pushing them around. For wood surfaces, slightly dampen the cloth but never use it dripping wet. Excess moisture raises wood grain and can penetrate finish layers to cause clouding or white rings that require professional refinishing to remove.

Clean spills immediately on upholstered pieces by blotting with white cloths rather than rubbing, which pushes liquids deeper into fibers. For water-based spills like coffee or juice, use plain water on your blotting cloth. For oil-based substances like salad dressing, use a small amount of dish soap mixed with water. Always test cleaning solutions on hidden areas first because some fabrics react to chemicals by changing color or texture. Performance fabrics resist staining but still need prompt attention to prevent permanent marks.

Wood Furniture Maintenance

Wood furniture benefits from periodic conditioning that replaces natural oils lost through cleaning and environmental exposure. Use furniture polish or wax specifically formulated for finished wood, applying thin coats with soft cloths and buffing to a sheen. Avoid silicone-based products that build up over time and make future refinishing difficult. The frequency depends on climate, with dry environments requiring more frequent treatment than humid ones. Generally, conditioning every three to four months keeps wood looking its best.

Protect surfaces from heat and moisture using coasters under glasses and trivets under serving dishes. Even catalyzed finishes have limits, and sustained contact with hot items can leave permanent marks. Place felt pads under lamps, decorative objects, and anything that sits stationary on wood surfaces. These pads prevent scratches from moving items and stop moisture from collecting between objects and tabletops. Check pads periodically and replace ones that accumulate dirt, as dirty pads can scratch more than bare surfaces.

Control environmental conditions to minimize wood movement. Hardwoods expand in humidity and contract in dry conditions, which is why solid wood furniture shows seasonal gaps at joints. Maintain indoor humidity between 35 and 55 percent year-round using humidifiers in winter and dehumidifiers in summer. Position furniture away from heating vents and direct sunlight, both of which dry out wood and accelerate finish deterioration. Use window treatments to filter strong afternoon sun that can fade wood and fabric over time.

Upholstery Care Guidelines

Vacuum upholstered furniture weekly using the upholstery attachment to remove dust and pet hair before they work into the weave. Pay special attention to crevices where seat cushions meet backs and arms, as debris accumulates in these areas. For removable cushion covers, unzip and vacuum both the cover interior and the foam beneath. This removes allergens and prevents odor buildup from skin cells and oils that naturally transfer during use.

Leather furniture requires different care than fabric pieces. Wipe down leather monthly with a slightly damp cloth to remove body oils and dust. Apply leather conditioner every six months using products specifically designed for furniture rather than automotive leather, which contains different chemicals. Work conditioner into seams and creases where leather dries fastest. For aniline-dyed leather that shows natural characteristics, accept that patina development is normal and desirable rather than damage requiring correction.

Rotate seat cushions every few months to distribute wear evenly. Flip cushions front to back and switch positions if the piece has multiple seating spots. This practice prevents the furniture equivalent of uneven tire wear, where one spot compresses permanently while others remain firm. Fluff cushions daily by lifting and shaking to redistribute fill materials and maintain their shape. Store extra pillow covers if provided, as having spares means you can swap out stained pieces for cleaning without leaving the furniture bare.

Getting the most from designer furniture involves understanding how to style it within your larger space. Start with the largest piece in a room as your anchor, then build around it with complementary items. In living rooms, the sectional or sofa establishes the seating arrangement and viewing angles. Position it to face focal points like fireplaces or televisions while maintaining clear traffic paths to other rooms. Leave 14 to 18 inches between the sofa front and coffee table for comfortable leg room.

Layer textures to add visual interest without introducing color chaos. The natural boucle of ottomans contrasts with smooth leather on benches and the clean lines of wood tables. Add throw pillows in varying fabrics but keep colors within a limited palette, typically three to four shades that appear throughout the room. This creates cohesion without monotony. Woven baskets under console tables provide storage while adding organic texture. Metal elements in lamp bases or picture frames echo the brass hardware on furniture pieces.

Room-by-Room Styling Approaches

Living rooms benefit from asymmetrical balance rather than perfect symmetry. Place a floor lamp beside one end of the sofa and a side table with table lamp at the other end. This provides light for reading in both spots while creating visual movement. The Loma swivel chairs work well flanking a fireplace or angled in corners where they can rotate to face the seating area or look out windows. Keep coffee tables clear except for a few curated items like a stack of art books, a small plant, and a decorative tray that corrals remotes.

Dining rooms work best when you leave 36 inches between the table edge and walls or other furniture to allow chairs to pull out comfortably. The Stinson Banquette Bench along one side saves space compared to chairs while seating more people. Center a light fixture directly over the table, hanging it 30 to 36 inches above the surface. This height provides adequate illumination without blocking sight lines across the table. Add a sideboard like the Mollie against a wall for serving during meals and storage between gatherings.

Bedrooms need breathing room around the bed for making it and moving comfortably. Leave 24 inches on each side if space allows, placing nightstands within easy reach. The Hermosa dresser works on the wall opposite the foot of the bed, where you can see yourself in a mirror placed on or above it while standing at a distance. Add a bench at the foot of the bed for putting on shoes or laying out clothes. Keep surfaces relatively clear to maintain the calm aesthetic bedrooms require for proper rest.

Accessorizing Without Clutter

Quality furniture doesn't need heavy decoration because the pieces themselves provide visual interest. Choose a few statement items rather than covering every surface with objects. A large piece of art above the Capitola Sofa anchors the wall without competing with the furniture. Books arranged by color on the Marin Bookcase create pattern without requiring additional decorative objects. Plants in simple pots add life and color while reinforcing the organic aesthetic of the wood furniture.

Create negative space intentionally by leaving some surfaces empty. The eye needs places to rest among visual information, and blank space prevents rooms from feeling busy. Console tables look sophisticated with one tall lamp, a small plant, and perhaps a decorative bowl rather than lined with knickknacks. This restraint lets the furniture's design details shine and makes dusting considerably easier. Remember that in professional interior design, less almost always reads as more expensive and thoughtful.

How long does delivery take for Becki Owens x SURYA furniture?

Most items in this collection ship within two to six weeks from order placement, though exact timing varies by specific piece and current production schedules. Custom orders with fabric or finish selections outside standard options typically require eight to twelve weeks. Shipping adds another one to two weeks depending on your location and the delivery method selected. White glove delivery, which includes room placement and packaging removal, takes longer to schedule than basic freight delivery. Check individual product pages for current lead times, as these change based on inventory levels and manufacturing capacity.

Can I customize fabrics or finishes on these pieces?

Selected pieces offer customization through different fabric options or wood finish choices beyond what displays on the website. Contact customer service with the specific item number to discuss available alternatives. Customization typically adds two to four weeks to production time and may involve upcharges depending on the material selected. Performance fabrics cost more than standard upholstery due to their enhanced durability treatments. Wood finish changes usually don't affect pricing but require clear communication about desired colors to ensure satisfaction with the final product. Keep fabric samples or finish chips you receive for future reference.

What is the return policy for large furniture items?

Casa Bella Decor accepts returns on most furniture within 30 days of delivery, though customers pay return shipping costs due to the size and weight of items. Furniture must remain in original condition with all packaging materials, hardware, and assembly instructions included. Custom orders with non-standard fabrics or finishes cannot be returned unless defective, as these items were made specifically for your order. Inspect all items thoroughly upon delivery and document any damage immediately with photos. Filing claims within 48 hours of delivery ensures fastest resolution for damaged or defective pieces through carrier insurance or manufacturer warranties.

How do I know what size sectional fits my room?

Measure your room carefully before ordering modular furniture, accounting for doorways, windows, and existing built-ins. Create a floor plan on graph paper using a quarter-inch scale, where each quarter inch represents one foot of actual space. Cut paper templates of furniture pieces to the same scale and arrange them on your floor plan. Leave minimum 30 inches for traffic paths and 14 to 18 inches between seating and coffee tables. The Lloyd Sectional's modular design lets you configure shapes that work with your specific layout. Consider hiring a designer for complex spaces or rooms with unusual dimensions to avoid costly ordering mistakes.

What makes this collaboration different from other Becki Owens furniture lines?

The Becki Owens x SURYA partnership focuses on mid to upper-mid price point furniture with commercial-grade construction suitable for daily family use. SURYA's manufacturing capabilities allow for features like power reclining mechanisms and dovetailed drawers that smaller manufacturers can't offer at competitive prices. This differs from Becki's collaborations with mass retailers like Sam's Club, which target lower price points with simplified construction, or her work with Livabliss on rugs and smaller accent pieces. The SURYA collection represents her most comprehensive furniture offering, with coordinated pieces across all major furniture categories rather than limited item types.

Does this furniture work with Becki Owens rugs and accessories?

Yes, the furniture collection coordinates intentionally with Becki's rug designs through SURYA's Livabliss line and her other accessory collections. The neutral wood tones and fabric colors in the furniture complement the vintage-inspired patterns and coastal color palettes common in her rug designs. SURYA manufactures both the furniture and many of Becki's rugs, ensuring consistent quality standards and complementary aesthetics. When shopping, look for rugs with similar undertones to your chosen wood finish, using warm-toned rugs with walnut furniture and cool-toned patterns with oak pieces. The performance fabrics on furniture share stain-resistant treatments with washable rugs, creating a cohesive approach to durable family-friendly design.
