The collaboration between Myhr and KnudsenBergHindenes of Bergen, Norway, has produced a charming living room solution that's slim to pack and ship, straightforward to assemble and easy on the eyes. It has been crafted from a pair of floorboard-like panels of Dinesen Douglas Spruce lumber that extend beyond the designated seating space.

Thick and broad, the wooden surface and the slotted backrest support four lengthy pillows for the user's comfort. At one end, the Plank Sofa is left exposed to act as a convenient built-in side table.
