The Milli Sofa might look normal at first glance, but it features a multi-legged mutation beneath its deceptively tame cushions and frame. This quirky detail makes the piece stand out from the rest of the seating options out there.
Designed by Duffy London, the Milli Sofa is great in that it's not overly quirky. It's like a mullet, but the business is on the top and the party on the bottom. According to Plus Mood, the Milli Sofa's upholstery is "100% wool sourced and woven in the UK, Wood is from Forest Stewardship Council managed forests and other controlled sources."
