DS600 Modular Non Stop Sofa by Ueli Berger for De Sede. Set of 20 Pieces
About the Item
The DS-600, affectionately known as the "Non Stop" sofa, is a design masterpiece that emerged in 1972 through the collaborative efforts of Ueli Berger, Eleonore Peduzzi-Riva, Heinz Ulrich, and Klaus Vogt for the Swiss furniture manufacturer De Sede. This iconic modular sofa is comprised of 22 individual upholstered segments, originally dressed in luxurious suede, each ingeniously equipped with zippers that allow them to be connected and reconfigured as desired.
Despite being conceived nearly half a century ago, the DS-600 retains its status as a symbol of innovative furniture design. Its adaptability is its most defining feature, offering homeowners the freedom to craft bespoke seating arrangements, whether in the form of a long straight sofa, a sinuous curve, or a configuration that harmonizes perfectly with the unique layout of their living space. This adaptability has ensured its continued relevance in contemporary interior design.
Beyond its versatile design, the DS-600 also boasts a timeless aesthetic. Its clean lines and minimalist design enable it to effortlessly blend into a wide range of interior styles, from modern to mid-century modern and beyond. Its enduring allure lies in its ability to maintain an air of sophistication regardless of the setting.
Moreover, comfort has not been sacrificed for style. Each segment of the DS-600 is carefully crafted to provide ergonomic support, ensuring that it offers not just flexibility but also a genuinely comfortable seating experience.
The DS-600's status extends beyond its adaptability, aesthetics, and comfort. It holds an esteemed place in the world of furniture design, often featured in museums and exhibitions dedicated to showcasing the finest in design excellence. Its innovative modular concept has continued to inspire contemporary designers exploring adaptable and multifunctional furniture solutions.
De Sede's commitment to superior craftsmanship is also evident in the DS-600. The original suede upholstery not only adds a luxurious touch but also stands the test of time, further enhancing its status as a design classic.

De Sede
A de Sede piece lends a strong personality to the room it occupies. One of the world’s most respected furniture design houses, de Sede’s quality Swiss craftsmanship has its foundation in a long history of making expertly designed saddles. Founded in 1965 to build on a successful family-run saddler’s workshop in Klingnau, Switzerland, de Sede now is a leading manufacturer of leather goods and furniture, including sofas, chairs and beds.
At the core of de Sede’s philosophy is a reverence for the complexity and beauty of handcrafted furniture in an age when mass-produced objects are the norm. Over the years, the atelier has built a name for itself in its modular furniture pieces, which are made using the highest quality leather upholstery. The sleek, elegant pieces incorporate functionality with beauty. Amongst their best-selling designs is the DS-600 introduced in 1972. Also known as the Non Stop sofa, it is a sensually curved, snaking modular sofa whose individual pieces can be zipped together to create multiple variations and arcs.
De Sede has collaborated with some of the world's finest design minds, enhancing the prestige and individuality of their products. Designers like Santiago Calatrava, Antonella Scarpitta, Stephan Hürlemann, Gordon Guillaumier and Philippe Malouin have all created pieces with the atelier. Ubald Klug’s 1974 DS-1025, also known as the Terrazza sofa, is an enduring favorite with its cascading levels of leather. In 2017, de Sede expanded its product line to include high-quality leather handbags, which are as thoughtfully designed and beautifully crafted as its furniture. De Sede AG is now part of the Volare Group AG and continues to handcraft its fine furniture and other goods from its factory in Klingnau.
