Design duo Neri&Hu like to play with opposites and set great store by contemporary products that link with tradition. Their BLOCKS upholstered furniture series picks up on this design approach: organic and geometric at once, the individual low-slung modules lend themselves to a huge variety of combinations. The cover finished in the design of a slipcover creates a sporty and relaxed look. In a minimalist line that demands precision hand-craftsmanship, the armrest and backrest circumscribe the generous seating area in a striking arc.
Neri&hu sought a departure from those typically bulky sofas of non-descript shape, considering it rather as an elegantly elongated armchair. Using the classical arch geometry in an extrusion to form the arms and back, this sofa exhibits a beautifully minimal line and clean volumetric expression. To lighten the object’s massing, a fabric is applied as a slipcover, giving a layer of softness to suit any modern interior.
