Modular Heart-Shaped Couches

The Jo Sofa by Kati Meyer-Bruhl is Adorably Versatile

— January 10, 2014 — Art & Design
The Jo Sofa is not only incredibly versatile, it is also infinitely adorable. Although that word isn't often associated with furniture design unless it involves children's furniture, it can't be helped in this situation. From forming hearts to angelic wings and more, the shape of the Jo Sofa is made to be referred to as, well, adorable.

Designed by Kati Meyer-Bruhl, the Jo Sofa is upholstered in navy cotton with white leather piping, which gives it a bit of a masculine grounding. Of course, it is only from above that the Jo Sofa looks incredibly feminine. Face-on, it is simply a modern and sophisticated design that suits a variety of needs. In addition to the seats, the Jo Sofa can also accommodate a cubular table and other extensions.
