Classic posture, hyper comfort

Kobold is a range of one-armed settees and daybeds conceived for urban lifestyles in which the sofa is multi-use: to sit formally or "wallow", eat or work, lie down and sleep. The Classic version is a balance between hyper comfort and posture, and its more vertical position invites interaction and socialisation.

Piping and stitching

Piping reinforces the "classic" and luxurious side of the model: double piping on the seat and back cushions, simple piping on the lumbar cushions and two satin stitches on the seat cushion. The model was conceived around better manufacturing with fewer materials and fewer resources, and with rigour in the forms.
