The Picnic Sofa strikes a beautiful balance between classic couch designs and minimalist modern touches. It sports a unique wire-frame base that makes the traditionally cozy cushions look almost as though they are floating in midair. Once it is determined there is something holding up the rest of the Picnic Sofa, it becomes an issue of whether or not a person's weight can be supported, which it clearly can be.
Designed by England-based studio Industrial Facility for Herman Miller, the Picnic Sofa is available in two-seater and three-seater variations. Versatile and light, the Picnic Sofa makes rearranging rooms easier. Not to mention that it will complement existing decor easily. The Picnic Sofa comes in different colors including pink, grey and black.
