Description
Design and comfort go arm in arm in a very appealing way in the DS-705 London Sofa by Philippe Malouin. The way the armrests are casually folded inwards creates a very bold design statement. They create flowing transitions between the backrest and the seat, and make the sofa feel distinctively soft in both the fabric and leather versions. This stylish and charismatic, sculptural sofa has been designed to appeal to people of all ages – a timeless piece of furniture in the truest sense of the word.
How should a sofa be designed so that it appeals to people of all ages but still boasts the same timeless qualities that resonate into the future? If you were to ask Canadian-British designer Philippe Malouin, he would say it should be inviting and impressive without being influenced by any particular trend. This sculptural sofa embodies the company’s heritage while exuding an enchanting contemporary spirit.
The designer’s experimental approach and his love of materials are clearly recognisable. His experiments with soft felt have produced a very appealing design and the way the armrests fold inwards is reminiscent of a warm embrace. The upholstery is draped over the sofa in such a way that it connects the back section and seat in a fluid manner. The ultra-soft surface has resulted in a piece of furniture that takes relaxation to a whole new level.
The DS-705 London Sofa blends effortlessly into different environments – it feels just as at home in the private sphere as it does in public spaces. No matter where it is, it becomes a favourite place for everyone and forever.
