Five Amazing Sofas

Here are a pick of 5 amazing sofas that offer ideas, concepts, style and so much more.

The mix of fashion and design with a statement of what you and your home or office is about often comes from your choice of sofa.

Many of the below can be purchased but some are prototypes from new designers with some great ideas.


First lets start with a prototype from designer Daniel Becker from Germany.

The Hunting Lines 2 seat sofa has strong lines with a what looks like a glowing yellow line contrasting again the soft black.

One of the main features to this sofa is the fact that putting multi sofas together expands the seating area and create great lines within a home or office.

From the Daniel Becker prototype to no other than one of the most famous sofa brands in the world, yes B&B Italia.

I could with ease list just 5 B&B italia sofas on this blog post but this time only one gets on this list.


Designed by Patricia Urquiola whom has designed for B&B Italia, Bosa, De Vecchi, Fasem, Kartell, Liv’it, MDF Italia, Molteni & C., Moroso and Tronconi plus many more.

The Tutfy Time has been selected due to the mix of square and straight lines with super soft corners and edges is a perfect mix of uniformity and comfort.

Being modular it fits in any space from a large 1 seat sofa to as large a composition as you'd like.

Looking for some natural elements in your living room ? Well the Neo livingstones will meet your needs..

These giant stones and pebbles make up configurations of sofas for both indoor and outdoor use.

These elements really look like stone and pebbles and of course will create and eye catching focal point to any living space.


Maybe its the child in me that just wants to run and jump onto the Neo Livingstones from Smarin.
I think you could have so much fun with these sofa's in a modern space with strong lines with the livingstones offering the natural element into a room.

From stones to pixels..

Its hard to pick just one of the sofas designs from Moroso as it has so many epic designs.

Moroso are famed for so many designs that include the likes of the Victoria and Albert and
Alessandra Armchair in cow style black and white patch fabric.

The pictured pixel sofa is again this typical Moroso idea of a mix of color design and texture. Bland is not a word you can use when talking about Moroso.

With some of the world top designers such as Ron Arad, Carlo Colombo, Enrico Franzolini, Marc Newson, Toshiyuki Kita and Patricia Urquiola you are of course exposed to so many ideas and designs.

Designers Andrea Fino and Samanta Snidaro have created the Velvet sofa for Sand and Birch design Italy.

The name of course gives away the use of velvet to upholster this sofa. It looks like and spring and strong, even harsh and uncomfortable to sit on but taking a closer look you can see the super soft velvet which omits comfort. The contradiction between its spring like form and soft texture is what makes this sofa stand out.

This is typical of Italian furniture challenging shape and form along with texture and finish.
