This DOCKS Furniture is a perfect representation of contemporary seating through its use of reconfigurable seating. This modular unit has endless possibilities due to its simple structural system. A set of similarly sized cushions, and uniformly sized base pieces can create everything from a love seat, to a sectional sofa and even into a bed.

The square-shaped base structures are all the same size which allow you to use your creativity when deciding how to organize your furniture. The all-white bases work perfectly as a coffee table or side table while also providing structural support when used as a couch. DOCKS has ensured that its newest product can be used outdoors or indoors depending on your time-specific needs. This piece is not only practical but incredibly sleek and aesthetically appealing which perfectly fits in any modern home.
