A community site for contemporary interior designers and its related sectors

Hi,

If anyone with great insights and connections to furniture is tuned in (Lizzy?), then I would appreciate your direction to finding a sofa design that might fit the following description:

"organic, fluid, ergonomic design, skinny (NOT fat padded traditional look), minimal but comfortable, exposed wood frame combined with cushioning sufficient to create real functional comfort"

I hate the look of fat, bulky padding in furniture.  I believe that it can be comfortable, slick looking and open — no need for all that cloth and padding.  Sculptural, modern okay, but (again) ergonomic, real comfortable design.  I know it's out there, but I forgot where I saw it.

Just trying to start creating my own interior design philosophy here.  I'm a baby at this.

Thanks for insights,

Robert Kernodle

Hi Lizzy,

Sorry for the 1-month delay in replying to your question:

You asked whether I was looking for an existing design or whether I was looking for any sofa design that might fit my verbal description in the first post of this topic.

My answer is:  I remember many years ago seeing a series of furniture (chairs, sofa) that I would describe as "skinny" and very well engineered for comfort.  I forgot who made it or where the company was located.  The designers obviously were well tuned to realistic, ergonomic comfort with a rather minimalist design – sort of like lawn furniture, but better, … very contemporary, simple, but elegant at the same time.

Of course, I am interested in seeing pictures of any sofa that might fit my verbal description.  Custom-made is out of the question.
