Speaking about the new range, Note's designer Malin Engvall states that “Our aim was to create a piece of furniture with a lot of character that makes people happy and creative."

The seating series is full of modular looks that ensure that it can be suitable for any space. The structure is soft and flexible, complete with three main components to the capsule. This includes the Easy chair, the pouf, and the linking table. The pouf and Easy chair comes in three versions -- straight, closed, and open. This helps create a seamless configuration.
