Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec for Vitra

Alcove Sofa is both a social space and a security zone. It’s an environment of its own: a room inside a room, inside a home. With this in mind, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec designed the Alcove Sofa, which was inspired by the Arabic “al-qubba”, and is a secluded, upholstered niche, designed for lounging and sleeping.  Like its ancient forbearer, the Alcove Sofa creates an intense sense of intimacy and enclosure, a feeling of escape from the chaos of the outside world. You

don’t just sit on an Alcove Sofa, you retreat into it. It’s tall, deep and remarkably soft. Lay back, tuck up your feet, and you´ll immediately find yourself in a much safer and more private world.

Material: chromed tubular steel, metal frame with belt upholstery, panels made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic, seat cushioning: polyurethane foam and polyester wool, backrest cushioning and set of cushions: filled with polyurethane chips and microfibers.
