Modular Sofa

Thursday, 1 October 2026

Terra Lounge

Terra Lounge is a modular outdoor sofa formed from separate lounge chairs that can be arranged as a flexible seating system. The aluminum structure has an open interior that reduces visual weight and provides storage for the cushions. Ambient lighting can be added through the open spaces in the frame. The cushions are washable, replaceable and waterproof. Waterproof profile covers shield the interior from moisture and dust when the sofa is not in use. Corner units and auxiliary tables can be added. The aluminum frame is intended for long outdoor use with low maintenance.

Sofa Set

Seylan

Seylan is a sofa set designed for contemporary living spaces. The form is inspired by the flowing curves of Persian Nastaliq calligraphy. Continuous lines and soft curves replace sharp angles, so the sofa set appears sculptural from every side. The structure is made of solid wood, shaped by CNC cutting and then carved, sanded and finished by hand. The seating is built from layered high-density foam with fabric upholstery, and the curves guide a comfortable posture. The set includes a single seater and a three seater. The intent is to bring a traditional craft into modern interiors.

Shelf

Flowerblock

Flowerblock is a shelf designed to serve as both storage furniture and a room divider. The design is inspired by flower blocks, concrete units with geometric openwork patterns used in Okinawan architecture, which filter strong sunlight while letting air pass. Gaps between the boxes give the shelf a light and open appearance. Stainless steel rods connect the boxes for stability, solid white ash supports the load-bearing points, and plywood reduces the overall weight. The shelf has no back panel, so it can be placed against a wall or in the centre of a room.

Alvorada

Inspired by the quiet transition of dawn, the Alvorada Armchair reflects moments of pause, renewal and introspection. Its enveloping laminated wood shells evoke distant mountains on the horizon, while the integrated upholstery and matching ottoman create a supportive and tactile seating experience that encourages relaxation and mental restoration. By combining organic references with ergonomic precision, the armchair offers a sense of comfort and balance, reinforcing the home as a place of refuge, presence and well being.

Takumi

Takumi is a jewelry cabinet that combines Japanese craft principles with contemporary furniture construction. The cabinet has fifteen drawers with chamfered edges and a concealed sliding system that works without lateral panels, creating a floating drawer effect. The interior is lined with natural leather and fitted with removable suede dividers for flexible organization. The brass handle is cast by the lost-wax method using reclaimed offcuts. The design turns the storage of personal jewelry into a calm and attentive routine.

Tokyo

Tokyo is a lounge chair made of solid Brazilian sucupira hardwood. The frame is fully exposed, showing the joinery and the shaped wooden parts. The arms and back supports are turned on a lathe under manual control, with concave detailing at the ends. A natural leather inlay is recessed into each armrest and finished with stitching. The seat and back cushions combine layered polyurethane foam and feather filling, upholstered in brown linen. Surfaces are hand sanded and finished with a matte varnish. The design applies Japanese woodworking principles to a Brazilian material.
