Los Angeles has no shortage of showrooms, but few feel like this— less a destination for transactions than an atmosphere that unsettles what a furniture store can be. Before a single sofa is named, the building itself announces intent: glass and concrete shaped into a stage where comfort is treated as subject matter.
What follows is not a catalog but an unfolding. Each room is suspended in suggestion, each surface tuned like a gallery wall. The work here is not simply to sell, but to stage living as an exhibition— an architecture of light, form, and comfort waiting to be inhabited.
A Mid-Century Frame for Beverly Hills Furniture
Mario Capasa’s Los Angeles flagship occupies a mid-century building on Beverly Boulevard, reinterpreted in space-age minimalism with a gallery sensibility. Housed in a 3,200-square-foot mid-century structure, the building retains its modernist bones— an L-shaped footprint with floor-to-ceiling glass, concrete caissons, and the geometry of H columns and I beams— that feels quintessentially Californian.
From the street, the building reads more like a contemporary gallery than a furniture store— a deliberate gesture to frame the brand as part of the design world, not of the retail world.

A Gallery of Modern Couches
It’s less a furniture store than a series of domestic proposals— living rooms without walls, staged like editorial spreads and held in spatial suspension.
The boutique showroom features its Signature Collections; a suite of interchangeable modular couches conceived for those seeking comfort at its highest level and as part of a complete lifestyle. Modular sofas are staged in wide bays that function like pavilions, each vignette composed with sightlines that highlight volume and form.

Framed with natural light, the most recognizable sofa archetypes are found in one destination— cloud couches with billowing depth, pit sectionals designed for collective lounging, iconic pop Monoblock seating, and ribbed velour sofas as part of a signature collection.
A Domestic Field of Material and Form
Along one wall, a rolling rack of fabric swatches extends the composition— textiles displayed like garments, transforming material choice into a tactile and interactive layer of the gallery-like furniture store. In this way, the brand resists traditional retail display and instead presents comfort, material, and form as an immersive approach that positions each piece as a statement within a larger vision for the home.


Sculptural side tables in terrazzo and cast stone echo the sectional’s geometry, while lighting fixtures punctuate the arrangement with a warm, directional glow. Polished concrete floors and plastered walls establish a restrained backdrop, softened by pebble-lined courtyards that recall the garden interludes of West Coast modernists like Neutra and Schindler.
Performance on Display
Here, performance becomes part of the gallery itself, collapsing the gap between design romance and technical proof. The Material Proof Bar transforms customization into an exhibition. Stretching along one wall, it combines a full-scale swatch display with interactive demos that reveal how the Signature Collections perform in daily life.

Visitors can see stains bead and wipe clean, watch breathability and heat-dissipation measured in real time, and feel abrasion resistance put to the test. Beyond performance, the station invites tailoring at every level: choose cushion firmness and filling to match personal comfort, adjust leg style and height to set the stance, and layer in modular pillows or headrests to refine depth and posture.
With more than fifty sofa cover options and a framework of interchangeable components, each sofa becomes a system designed around its owner— by a platform where proof and personalization are made visible. The space feels less like retail and more like an initiation.

The Exhibition of Living
The Mario Capasa furniture store establishes the brand among today’s leading luxury furniture brands, positioned alongside names like Herman Miller, Design Within Reach, Modani, and Jerome’s Furniture. Hailed by leading design publications as “the most comfortable seating imaginable,” Mario Capasa has become shorthand for a new era of comfort. Each piece is designed to be felt before it’s even understood.
Mario Capasa’s Los Angeles flagship unfolds like an exhibition. The effect is a showroom that reads as a gallery of possibilities, each sofa staged as a medium within a larger composition, where comfort becomes the subject and the real work on display is the way you live.
