The Arnhem Sofa is an interesting piece of furniture. It has a modular design that allows it to provide privacy when needed. Although great for homes, the Arnhem Sofa is particularly great for office spaces, especially those that boast an open concept design. The seating only impedes this open concept when intimate meetings and conversations take place.
Created by Offenbach am Main-based designer Sebastian Herkner for Dutch furniture manufacturer De Vorm, the sides and back of the Arnhem Sofa has been tweaked so that they can be raised and lowered at whim. With three different attachments, three heights can be achieved. An overall minimalist design, the Arnhem Sofa does have a tasteful and subtle two-tone touch.
