Story
A sofa for conversation
The page frames the sofa as a modern answer to digital devices that crowd out conversation: it gives up the forward-facing sofa for a sideways position that, in its words, encourages more natural conversation, and it also offers room for downtime.
Made in Denmark
The page states that the sofa is made in Denmark and that it was created by the award-winning Danish designer Rikke Frost.
