Trivia Meets the World of White Glove Installations
At Caudelle Interior Installations, we know that design isn't just about beauty, it's about the stories, the surprises, and sometimes the strange trivia that comes with it. That's why we are launching this week long series "Did You Know?"
Each post this week will pair fascinating interior design trivia with real world solutions. From sofa's to football fields to chandeliers heavier than piano's we will dive into the quirky facts that make interior design logistics so fascinating, and show you exactly how we solve those dilemmas.
Why trivia? Because it's fun, it's memorable, and it proves that most unusual challenges have a solution, when you have a true white glove team on your side.
So buckle up, because the facts are surprising, the solutions are smart, and the goal is simple.
Caudelle stays your #1 choice for white glove installations in Atlanta and beyond.
Did You Know #1: The Longest Sofa Ever Made Was 3300 Feet aka 1006 Meters?
Yes, that's over a half mile long! Imagine the install day chaos if your vendor shipped that piece. While we won't be receiving the world's largest sofa in Atlanta anytime soon, oversized furniture is a common designer headache.
Caudelle Solution
Our team specializes in navigating stairwells, elevators, and doorways with grace. If your sofa can't fit, we find a way (or find a creative alternative)
Did You Know #2: Museums Move Art More Than You Think?
Most people imagine museum pieces spending their lives on pristine gallery walls. In reality, many works spend up to 90% of their time in storage, rotated in and out for preservation and exhibition.
That constant movement is why professional art handling matters. It's not just about getting a work from point A to B, it's about protecting it during every step of the journey.
Caudelle Solution:
Just like the world's top museums, we offer climate controlled, humidity regulated storage to safeguard your fine art, mirrors, and luxury furnishings until install day arrives. Our team handles every piece with museum level care, ensuring it remains flawless no matter how long it rests in storage, or how many times it moves.
Did You Know #3: 30% of Furniture is Damaged in Transit?
According to logistics studies, nearly a third of furniture experiences, minor scratches, dents, or breaks occur before it even reaches it's destination.
Caudelle Solution:
Our receiving process opens the item completely, inspects thoroughly for imperfections and damages, upon arrival. We document and catch any issues before they ever reach your clients living room.
Movers Move Boxes, Installers Move Experiences
It's true. Movers are trained to transport. Installers are trained to transform spaces.
That's why calling in a white glove installation team isn't just an option, it's a design essential.
Interactive Game: Fact or Fiction?

Behind every quirky trivia fact lies a serious truth: interior design installations are complex, high stakes, and best left to experts who know how to protect your vision.
At Caudelle, we take pride in turning challenges into seamless solutions, whether that's moving oversized sofa's, safeguarding priceless artwork, or ensuring every item arrives safely and securely.
Our "Did You Know" series is more than fun facts, it's proof no matter how unusual or unexpected your design dilemma may be, there's always a white glove solution.
