The fabric feels soft to the touch while still being durable enough for everyday use.

A Living Room Setup That Works
In this showroom setting, the sofa is paired with the STOCKHOLM coffee table and mirrors, pieces that adds warmth with its walnut veneer finish and organic oval and round shape.

Harmonious Colors and Materials
The wall color here is NCS S 5502-Y, a rich dark grey that enhances the sofa's fabric and gives the space a calm, grounded atmosphere. The walnut-look flooring adds warmth to the setting, tying in beautifully with the table and overall décor. Adding a large plant in the corner, as shown, softens the strong lines of the room and introduces a fresh, natural touch.
