It doesn't exactly float in the air, but it almost does. The newly developed Slimline sofa from Eilersen is characterized by its lightness. The perfectly proportioned interplay of steel frame, backrest, end pieces and cushions causes the sofa to defy gravity. Eilersen's signature Slimline is a classic expression of the values that have characterized the well-known Eilersen brand since the beginning of 1895, when not sofas but carriages bore the signature of the family business. The furniture is therefore an expression of elegance, durability and quality. Traditions are there to be renewed, and so it is a pleasure for the eyes, back and spine that the familiar design principles live on in a modern sofa that probably couldn't have been made an ounce lighter than it is. "The slender body of the sofa is set off by the loose, feather-padded cushions on the seat and back. The cushions are finished with an envelope edge to create an optimal contrast, so that the sofa retains its inviting and comfortable appearance," says designer Jens Juul Eilersen. Never before has there been such an elegant way to relax. Although the length of Slimline justifies the term 'floating', its lightness and horizontal lines create a minimalist expression that fits perfectly with today's streamlined look. The armrests and front apron measure less than 60 mm, and the sofa's clinically clean cut appears as a subtle commitment to classic aesthetics, as superfluous embellishments can be dispensed with. The model can be upholstered in fabric or leather from Eilersen's own collection.
