Vintage Design
Sofa designed by Jasper Morrison in 2016. Manufactured by Vitra, Switzerland. In good condition, with signs of age and use. The soft modular sofa is Jasper Morrison’s updated interpretation of what has become a modern classic: the low-slung modular sofa with a decidedly horizontal emphasis. Uniting carefully balanced proportions, great comfort and a conscious renunciation of decorative details, the soft modular sofa exemplifies the characteristics of this sofa type in their purest form. Firmly in line with his philosophy of ‘super normal’ design, Jasper Morrison has successfully coupled home-like informality with precise finishing and expressive clarity. As a result, the soft modular sofa functions like an architectural element that can be subtly integrated in any interior.

About the designer: Known for thinking outside the box, Jasper Morrison is one of the most successful industrial designers of the past few decades. Together with his colleague Naoto Fukasawa, he defined the term ‘super normal’, which in his opinion answers the question of what ‘good design’ should really be. In his work, he strives to create good examples of understated, useful and responsible design. Morrison has developed several projects in collaboration with Vitra, including the APC, the Soft Modular Sofa and the HAL chair family. His designs are represented in New York’s Museum of Modern Art and other prominent museum collections around the world. About the manufacturer: Vitra founder Willi Fehlbaum first came across creations by Ray and Charles Eames in the early 1950s. This decisive moment marked Vitra’s beginnings as a design company. Vitra has collaborated with international designers and architects ever since. While the first generation laid the company’s commercial foundations, and the second added a cultural dimension through the development of the Vitra Campus and the Vitra Design Museum with its collection, the third generation puts the spotlight on sustainable thinking and action. Vitra’s origins as a design company lie in the chance discovery of a chair by Charles and Ray Eames in a New York window display. The spirit of innovation expressed by the couple’s creations represents a movement – modern design – and continues today to be the driving force behind the development, production and sale of furniture and accessories for people across the globe, for living, working and public use. Following in the tradition and spirit of Charles and Ray Eames, the sustainability of design is central to all activities at Vitra. The family-run company believes in the power of designs that forgo stylistic trends and eliminate superfluous details. The longevity of Vitra products is the combined result of their design, function and quality. Vitra products are designed and developed in Switzerland. The products are manufactured in Germany and other European countries with EU-sourced components, using materials that are strictly tested for quality and longevity.
