Story
Built from modules
According to Normann Copenhagen, ten sofa modules make any desired configuration of the plump Swell design possible. Scandinavian simplicity is accentuated by a stringent form with no unnecessary details.
Form and name
Soft, curved shapes make the sofa inviting. Its name is tied to rising bread and its full form of padded back and seat and two curvy armrests, and the stitching on back and seats divides it into sections.
