The "Freeform" sofa & Ottoman designed by Isamu Noguchi in 1946, fully differentiated from other designs of that time, fluid, slim and organic. The "Freeform" sofa is certainly one of the most elegant sofas ever made.
The sculptural style of Noguchi and its commitment to organic design language permanently influenced the design of the 1950s.
The Freeform sofa & the Ottoman were produced in a limited number around 1950 and the few remaining copies of this time were produced in auctions.
In 2002, the Vitra Design Museum finally received the license to produce a completely authentic edition of the Freeform sofas, this sofa is one of them (see label in a photo above).
* Isamu Noguchi sculptural and poetic design language also shows in his Freeform sofa & Ottoman, whose sculptural form is reminiscent of flat, oversized river pebbles, which have been gently ground over time by a rippling stream.
* Noguchi himself described this design as "soft rock".
* Thanks to the organic shape, the sofa looks light and elegant despite its extensive cushion.
Material
* Frame/support structure: beech wood.
* Corpus and seat cushion: wooden frame with polyurethane.
* Feet: maple nature.
* Reference: New relief by a professional upholsterer commissioned by us, not removable!
Conditional material: very high quality lambskin imitation (deceptively real) in color: cream. Soft, curly fur imitation in deluxe quality with a great handle, soft fluffy and extremely hard-wearing.
The special highlight are the 100,000 rubble tours to Martinndale, which this reference material has. Therefore, the cover is very hard -wearing and can also be used very well in public space without restrictions.
Dimensions
Sofa: width 300 cm x depth 130 cm x height 72 cm x seat height 32 cm
Ottoman: width 120 cm x depth 71 cm x height 32 cm
Condition
The object is in a properly restored (new cover), so very nice and very good condition.
On closer inspection, in this case, of course, there are still few, smaller and insignificant traces of a vintage object. The upholstery is still very well preserved and firm, since the sofa was not used often and not long and served more as a decorative object.
\. but all tracks are usually only a little more visible when you look at without being serious \.
* The pictures are part of the of the condition and show the general state and the most important flaws. We therefore ask you to take a good look at the pictures above *
