A Presence Both Sharp and Soft




EOOS, the design unit behind the newly released sofa "JAAN," also known for their products for brands like Matta Grassi and Alessi, is comprised of three designers: Martin Bergmann, Gernot Bohmann, and Harald Gründl. They have also produced items for Walter Knoll.
They collaboratively design and develop products, seeking design inspiration and functionality from human instincts, habits, and culture to bring their designs to life. They are
active worldwide, not only in product design but also in projects such as designing retail spaces for Armani Cosmetics globally.








"JAAN" possesses a strong presence yet feels approachable, with a form that is linear yet evokes softness.
By elevating the cube-like seat with elegant legs, it harmoniously balances the contrasting elements of lightness and weight, resulting in a superior design.
The final upholstery seams are meticulously crafted by skilled artisans, imbuing the product with a sense of precision and a distinct presence.




Available in a range of sizes, from single-seater armchairs to three-seaters, it offers flexibility to suit various settings. Furthermore, combining it with the center table from the same series, featuring a glass top, can create an even more sophisticated space.
