A sofa can go beyond being merely a piece of furniture and become a room within a room – this was the idea that prompted Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec to design the Alcove Sofa. With its soft seat and backrest upholstery, as well as the high, flexible side and back panels, Alcove Sofa creates the setting for a safe and secure world, a place for relaxed withdrawal from the hustle-&-bustle of life. Yet, Alcove Sofa is also a meeting place and point of communication: In the larger version two people can sit opposite each other, relaxing back against the side walls. As two- or three-seaters, the Alcove Sofa fits interiors of different sizes. Moreover, the Alcove Love Seat offers the advantages of the Alcove Sofa, with a small footprint, benefiting from the thin, flexible wall panels, that mean the armchair is spacious despite its compact outer size. The Alcove Ottoman is a comfortable complement. Material: chromed tubular steel, metal frame with belt upholstery, panels made of fibreglass-reinforced plastic, seat cushioning: polyurethane foam and polyester wool, backrest cushioning and set of cushions: filled with microfibres and polyurethane chips. - Alcove Love Seat incl. 1 backrest cushion - Set of cushions for Love Seat: 2 armrest and 1 small backrest cushions - Alcove Two- and Three-Seater incl. 2 backrest cushions - Set of cushions for Two- and Three-Seater: 2 armrest and 2 small backrest cushions.
