This sofa embodies the clean lines and minimalist aesthetic characteristic of the mid-century era, while also incorporating elements that ensure both comfort and style. Its silhouette is sleek and sophisticated, with a low profile that exudes a contemporary feel.

Throughout the 20th century, solid wood had been the most important furniture material. This is especially true for the mid-century era, during which natural wood was a staple in enhancing both the structural and visual aspect of furniture. This sofa was crafted for a hotel in Bali, Indonesia in the 1960s. Woodworking is an integral part of Indonesia’s cultural heritage, with evidence of fine craftsmanship dating back centuries and a long tradition in furniture-making. This sofa embodies comfort, while showcasing a balance of materials and proportions created with expert craftsmanship. The wooden frame is balanced in every sense of the word, with an airy back structure and bold seat and legs. The cabinetmaker’s fine sense of proportion, line tension and how skillfully they carried in the heritage of traditional design are all evident in this piece. The balance between surfaces - wood and fabric - is striking, as big wooden elements can be found on either side of the seat. Furthermore, the elegant, lightly textured upholstery of the seat and round back cushions beautifully complement the frame. The back cushions lay loose against the backrest, and can be easily removed depending on the sitter’s preference. The roundness of the pillows pairs beautifully with the grid-like pattern of the backrest, thus highlighting the geometric order of the design. This model can be placed in any environment to enhance the visual quality of its surroundings. The upholstery adds a modern edge to the natural wood, while keeping the mid-century look as the focus.

The historic movement of mid-century modern continues to permeate our sense of what’s contemporary. With a classic look, storied design and solid quality, this unique sofa is truly elegant and timeless, ideal as a statement piece thanks to its stylish colour and characteristic design.
