The slim arms on this sofa and chair make the seat look lower and wider; plus, the absence of any tufting or trim makes this collection a perfect canvas for whatever pillows or room decor you choose.

“Sedan uni-cushion bypasses slim recessed arms for a comfy three-seater (and great napper) that seems to go on forever. Nice pitch to the low back. Mink weave reads minimalist, trends warm. Major silhouette floats on recessed block feet.”

If you ignore how this sofa looks like it’s in a CB2 showroom, you can almost sort of picture it in a real home as a really cool sofa/convertible bed.

Convertible three-position seater/sleeper is the am/pm solution for the space-challenged or the friendly out-of-towner. By day it’s an upright but comfy lounge that can also angle back 45 degrees for TV/reading. Shut-eye rolls around, the back flips all the way down and voilà…a worthy platform bed with real pocketed coil mattress innersprings that sleeps two. Tailored bright neutral in olivine textured weave channeled with a baseball topstitch and neat flange along the edge.

This excellent sofa has light legs and a modern silhouette that ensures an airy feel to any room.

Good design isn’t just about beauty or form. Good design is also about making our lives a little easier, just a little more enjoyable. And if so, shouldn’t we celebrate the functional as well as the beautiful. That’s where Blu Dot comes in..An understated stitch traces the lean silhouette of Blu Dot’s finely tailored Swept Sofa. Gently flared arms hover over a barely-there stainless steel base. Available in contract-grade slate grey or white leather alternative upholstery.

I like the almost “articulated” look of this sofa.

Ergonomic and functional comfort make the Lex family exceptional. The frugality of its design and its minimalism provide the series with a timeless elegance. Its clear lines and obvious qualities speak for themselves. This combination results in beautiful lines that make Lex a very easy piece of furniture to use. It’s not just comfortable to sit on but also exceptionally easy on the eyes.

I have to say that I think the black leather is too imposing for this, but in a felt or softer fabric I think it would be an interesting piece.

The Boing sofa is simple yet interesting. the three place sofa’s structure is made in chromed steel , the shell and foam with metal inserts and the fixed cover is made of leather in ivory, red, or blue.”
