It is a [modular furniture unit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/san-l) that is defined by its rounded details inspired by the smooth look of cobblestones. The sofa has a frameless design and the cushions on the seating are shaped like lozenges to appear that it has been weatherized into its structure by the elements. It has a [soft design language](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biboni-sofa), which makes it inviting and perfect for lounging. The [modular features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hybla) allow the sofa to be altered in whichever way best suits the environment that it is in. It can be a traditional arrangement or more irregular with a pit-style. The padding is complete with memory foam to retain its shape.
