Dune Sofa
An organic seating arrangement made from solid surface material
What were the challenges, and how did we come up with a solution?
The Dune sofa is inspired by the natural shape of a sand dune. The challenge here was to recreate this fluid geometry in a durable material
Solid surface material was used to produce complex three-dimensional forms and a seamless finish. This made it possible to implement the design precisely while also providing a robust seating space.
