The Velar Sofa by Andreas Engesvik was inspired by the comfort of sitting up in bed. It boasts a curved high back to mimick the cozy feeling one gets from lounging in a luxurious bed. The new sofa is designed for the furniture brand Fogia.
To create a simple but distinctive silhouette, the Velar Sofa is defined by its back's unswept curve and arm-free sides. It boasts a low-slung position and a generous seating proportion for two or more people to sit comfortably. Ideal for both private and public settings, Velar's design is casual yet chic. It boasts a welcoming design, fostering a relaxing atmosphere in any room it is placed. Customers can choose between two color options.
