I love that this lead image serves my title perfectly. I petition that the Gordon Guillaumier ‘FreeFlow’ seating rename itself to ‘The Snake,' or ‘Slitherin’ for Harry Potter fans.

Except, that name may limit the [versatile design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flipster-seat) of the Gordon Guillaumier ‘FreeFlow’ sofa. Designed for Italian manufacturer [Moroso](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pebble-rubble), FreeFlow is a [modular seating arrangement](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cargo-modular-seating) that conforms to pretty much any space and need. Check out the gallery above to see the various ways in which you can arrange this sofa.
