for Freistil - Rolf Benz

Designer Assistant for Studio Sebastian Herkner

The 169 Freistil sofa relies on a range of loose cushions and various dimensions to express comfort and a lavish quietness feeling. The upward-tapering backrest is available in a choice of two heights. The union of the high back and the achromatic or colorful cushions creates a sumptuous protective emotion. The modular sofa provides a numerous combination, for small apartments as well as huge spaces.

169 freistil – « Chill like a sultan »

« freistil 169 was inspired by the idea of the oriental kiosk – the open pavilion in parks and palaces with spacious seating. Earlier these kiosks were places for strolling, slowing down, meditation, meetings, family, friendship and love. freistil transports the idea of the kiosk into the 21st century; it creates a place of liveliness and homeliness where heavy and light, round and asymmetrical, modern and traditional all combine in a sofa such as you have never seen before. A new game of proportions way beyond the classical modern. »
