Built in sofa?

- I notice in a number of photos from your various projects that there appear to be built in sofas. Can you tell me what dimensions you use for a typical built in sofa and what needs to be absolutely included to insure comfort. I have sat on too many built in pieces of furniture that are not at all comfortable. Your sofas look so wonderful (love the floor to ceiling bookshelves that often accompany them)!
