The designer of this sofa pair evidently attached great and equal importance to form and function. With an open design profile, this two-seater model carries with it some of the fundamental characteristics and ideals of mid-century modernism.

Clutter-free and disciplined, they are as functional as they are aesthetically pleasing. The round shape is reminiscent of the Artifort style in that it has a sinuous and expressive quality that is harmonious and organic. There is also a certain quiet power to the design that is pared-down to the essential, exuding simplicity and timelessness. The open construction is made up of the generous seat cushion and the large back that flows towards the front to form the shell of the seat. This creates an inviting and open look which is a signature characteristic of mid-century modernism. Thanks to the sinuous, large surfaces, the velour fabric dominates the overall look, accentuating the round shapes and curves. The short, splayed legs prevent the sofas from looking heavy by slightly lifting them off the ground, while their warm brown colour nicely compliments the elegant colour of the body.

Without any ornamentation, the focus here is on the round, flowing lines of the body and the upholstery. From the muted colour scheme to the material choices, this streamlined design is essentially mid-century modern and therefore, can add that cosy charm into any space.
