The Floating Seat and Back Sofa is a unique and iconic piece of furniture designed by the American furniture designer Vladimir Kagan. This sofa is known for its distinctive shape, which features a curved back and a seat that seems to be suspended in mid-air. This design element gives the sofa its name and creates a sense of weightlessness. The sofa is designed to be both comfortable and visually striking, with its unusual shape making it a focal point in any room.  The Vladimir Kagan Floating Sofa is often described as a perfect blend of form and function, as it not only looks great, but is also incredibly comfortable. The curved backrest provide support, while the suspended seat adds a level of softness and comfort. The piece is punctuated by beautiful solid walnut legs. The Floating Sofa has become an icon of mid-century modern design and continues to be popular with collectors and design enthusiasts today. It's a testament to the enduring appeal of Vladimir Kagan's design aesthetic, which marries form and function in a way that is both visually striking and comfortable. The sofa has been upholstered in a beautiful high quality mohair from the Netherlands.
