Marshmellow sofa by George Nelson

George Nelson, 1956

Here is one more design of the 2oth century.
Nelson's design transformed the traditional sofa into a three-dimensional pattern consisting of 18 brightly-coloured sections of upholstery, supported by a simple steel structure. This unusual shape and construction make Marshmallow Sofa one of design history's more unusual sofas. An extension element consisting of six individual cushions can be mounted between two sofas, allowing sofa to be extended as required. Available from Vitra.
