The Chester sofa’s organic form contradicts the traditional sofa shape. The cantilevered and curved base is constructed from gloss polyester and has taken inspiration from the subtle angles regularly employed in car design. The Chester is clearly an architectural design that at once speaks of the famous aesthetic of its celebrated designer, Amanda Levete. Chester is intended for use as a chaise longue and is equally happy freestanding in the centre of a room as it is on the periphery. It is suited to both retail and hotel environments and is often employed as a feature piece.
