Privacy Sofas for Offices

Alcove Highback Business Seating

The Alcove Highback seating collection was designed as multifunction business furniture: a private retreat for a little office downtime, or paired with other sofas to form an intimate meeting area.

These sofas could also be installed in a sensational restaurant and used as secluded booths. And what could be a more perfect way to style up a library--private or public?



The high-sided upholstered panels of these modern sofas and chairs provide sound dampening and a sense of exclusive personal space. The collection was designed by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec for Vitra.
