B-side: Quilt

We have the bad habit of looking to the back side of objects. Sometimes we discover complete different languages, or hidden details that tell more about the product, and sometimes they happen to be even more interesting than the official face; no matter what we find is always worth the time.

A metallic frame holds a fiberglass shell, and a pocketed outer layer made of an elastic 8mm thick textile (yes, you read correctly, 8mm thick!) is filled with foam, one separate piece of foam for each hexagonal shaped pocket which is then closed with a zipper. 
Born out of the intention of re-interpreting the traditional Chesterfield sofa into a more comfortable version and inspired out of the sight of a deflated soccer ball, the creative duo aimed at achieving a sofa that would not only be but also look as the very essence of comfort.

But shortly after all this revealed to be a product of our unquiet imagination: he is for real, thank goodness.
