coogeecouch
by meetmy GmbH
coogeecouch is a piece of furniture made up of four modules which are intended to offer flexibility to the user in terms of shape and function. The studio says that its furniture adapts to the circumstances of life and rethinks furniture in a family context.
Organic curves and geometric shapes make up the coogeecouch and the four pieces fit together in different ways, adapting to create different versions of the couch. meetmy GmbH’s design means that children can also interact with the furniture and create something new themselves.
The shape of the cushions has been designed for comfort, offering two different support angles for the back. Special detail solutions, such as the invisible zippers, the reduced seams and the additional comfort padding of the foam are meant to contribute to the product experience, says the studio.
In partnership with coogeecouch is a furniture manufacturer from Westphalia (Germany), whose experience and craftsmanship, says meetmy GmbH, meant that the design concept was implemented without compromising functionality. The Italian upholstery fabric aims to provide a velvety look and feel, as well as making the product durable.
The studio founders’ aim was to create timeless and sustainable furniture, which in its form and function appeals to all family members equally.

Wilson 3-seater sofa
by Mathias Mouritsen, for SOFACOMPANY
Designed by in-house designer Mathias Mouritsen, the Wilson sofa is a part of the brand’s new sustainable journey.
Inspired by the 70’s laid-back lifestyle, the design aims to blur the lines between indoor and outdoor furniture. The designer wanted the sofa to look inviting from all angles and reflect “a supreme zone of retreat”.
The classic design is intended to be both aesthetically and psychically long-lasting, with a hand-build wooden base and a comfortable, inviting and laid-back expression, according to the studio. The wooden base is built of FSC certified Ash wood and can be assembled without any use of screws or tools.
Made from organic natural latex and recycled polyester weave, the cushions and textile covers are meant to be light and easy to maintain while keeping a natural look and feel.
