About the Item

The “Patate” modular sofa by Airborne France radiates the playful optimism of its time. Composed of seven interlocking sections, it can twist, arc, or tuck neatly into a corner, adapting as easily as a mood. Wrapped in vivid yellow corduroy, it seems to gather sunlight, brightening everything around it. Its generous curves and low, lounge-like stance embody the joyful ease of 1970s French design. Fabric in condition with some areas of discolouration. Set consists of 2 'corner' units and 5 'middle' units. Corner pieces: 39.4" x 39.4" x 27"H Middle pieces: 35.5"W x 37.4"D x 27"H Made with Foam & Corduroy
