New York City is known for soaring skyscrapers and impressively jagged architecture that makes up its iconic skyline, something which the Fifth Avenue Sofa by Dima Loginoff strives to emulate.
Long and plush, this oh-so-soft sofa has a luxurious feeling that is synonymous with the idea of the stylish Fifth Avenue neighborhood. Staggered cushion backs give this sofa an interesting shape that begins to resemble the skyline of this affluent American city. In an unusual twist, the designer extended the structural design to the lower section, paying homage to tall buildings with protrusions below the seats.
In either gray or black upholstery, the Fifth Avenue Sofa looks stellar when given a back light that emphasizes its dynamic, city slicker silhouette.
