Slope
Sofa

"The design seems to yearn for the assimilation of soft boundaries with clear-cut geometry. This approach, almost echoing the detail of architecture, remains simple, immediate, and without interpretation."
— Andrea Steidl
Slope is a seating system with a characteristic shape of the perimeter that is surrounded by an inclined element that from the back turns into a functional object - the chaise longue.
This becomes the protagonist in a geometrically complex composition in which a reflection on volume and geometry yields two different seating modes within a single object.
The form belongs to an almost primordial geometry, like an element without design, yet fulfills its function as a furnishing element. The design seems to yearn for the assimilation of soft boundaries with clear-cut geometry. This approach, almost echoing the detail of architecture, remains simple, immediate, and without interpretation.
