About the Item
This rare three-piece modular lounge set captures the essence of European furniture design in the 1970s—a period when designers embraced softer, organic forms and elevated comfort as a central aesthetic principle. The generously rounded shapes, deep tufting, and plush velvet upholstery reflect a clear shift away from the angular geometry of earlier decades, representing instead the relaxed, informal spirit that defined the era.
Modular seating became highly sought after during this time for its flexibility and sculptural presence. This particular model closely echoes the sensibility of Michel Cadestin’s celebrated “Orchid” series for Airborne France, a manufacturer known for its innovative approach to ergonomics and contemporary living. The olive-toned velvet adds warmth and depth, aging gracefully and giving each piece a wonderfully inviting character.
To me, this set evokes the feeling of a nostalgic, beautifully lived-in home—a place where softness, rest, and calm genuinely matter. It is more than a functional seating arrangement; it carries the emotional warmth and leisurely elegance of the 1970s, making it a true statement piece in any interior.
