Super-Slender Chesterfields

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Anderssen & Voll Mono Sofa Reimagines the Comfy Couch

— March 11, 2011 — Art & Design
One may take pride and comfort in their plump and plushy chesterfields, but the slim Anderssen & Voll Mono Sofa has coziness on offer without the bulky frame. Its minimalistic planar form is a boxy thing of beauty, crafted to create graceful clean lines with paper-thin comfy cushions.

The comfort one can find on this rather rigid-looking couch is quite unexpected. A single pillow can turn the piece into an effective recliner, but the Mono Sofa is best used for a supported repose that lessens the sitter's ability to slouch.

Made for LK Hjelle, the chic chesterfield is available as a one, two and three seater. The Anderssen & Voll Mono Sofa is optimal for smaller living spaces, and perfect for minimalist design.
Trend Themes
1. Minimalist Furniture Design - Companies can explore opportunities in producing minimalistic and slimmed down furniture that take up less space while remaining stylish and comfortable.
2. Single Pillow Design - Companies can consider exploring the use of a single pillow design for sofas that can serve as a flexible recliner.
3. Supportive Seating Options - Companies can experiment with the use of rigid-looking couch designs that offer unexpected comfort and promote supported repose to minimize slouching and bad posture.
Industry Implications
1. Furniture Design - Furniture designers and manufacturers can explore the potential market for minimalist sofa designs that take up less space in homes with smaller living spaces.
2. Interior Design - Interior designers can incorporate minimalist furniture designs to provide sleek and modern aesthetics to their designs.
3. Health and Wellness - Companies that focus on promoting health and wellness can investigate the use of supportive couch designs that address the negative effects of slouching on posture and spinal health.
