Story
Contract proportions
Knoll dates this Joseph D'Urso model to 2008. It adapts his upholstered seating vocabulary to a compact contract sofa. Its 74-inch width and six-inch legs clearly distinguish it from the deeper residential version.
Upholstered layers
The visible seat and back cushions sit within a fully upholstered frame. Knoll varies the seam treatment according to textile direction or leather application details.
