Jasper Morrison's New Sofa Launches
The newly released "Place Sofa" is a reinterpretation by Jasper Morrison, distilling only the essential elements from a multitude of modern classic sofas. What is its seating comfort like?

The Embodiment of Jasper Morrison's "Super Normal" Philosophy
At first glance, it appears to be a simple sofa devoid of unnecessary ornamentation, but sit on it and you'll be surprised by how gently it envelops your body. This is thanks to the use of soft-touch fabrics and leathers for the covers, as well as a sophisticated internal structure and meticulously considered proportions.
The modular system allows users to freely arrange the sofa layout according to their "act of sitting," which is another delightful feature.
It is the result of a masterful fusion of the relaxed sensation characteristic of a sofa, precise craftsmanship, and Jasper Morrison's "Super Normal" philosophy.

Jasper Morrison
Born in London in 1959. After studying at Kingston Polytechnic and the Royal College of Art (RCA), he established his own design firm in 1994.
Morrison's designs embody many elements that form the origin of minimalism, a major current in contemporary British design,
and most distinctively represent "New Simplicity," the mainstream of modern furniture.
In his ability to fuse originality, practicality, and even artistry, he can be considered one of the most successful designers of our time.
