Known primarily for her ceramics, Hella Jongerius has branched off into furniture design with the Polder Sofa for Vitra. We had seen pictures of the sofa and thought it a bit odd until we had a chance to try it out yesterday at the Conran Shop. In person, the proportions are perfect and very comfortable. The details that Hella is known for show up in the contrasting textures of the cushions and the embroidered buttons of natural materials...

Oh, the day when I'll be able to buy a mismatched $9.5K sofa.
But for the money you get a sculpture and a sofa in one!
what about this couch is even remotely mismatched? not to say i can afford it, but boy can i lust after it.
It is about time someone had fun with materials and form in the sofa format.
I wish there was a 60" version even though I wouldn't be able to afford it.
Has anyone made a knockoff of this sofa?
