About Stoniture Sofa

Stoniture ass e Sofa, dat vun der Form vum Naturstee inspiréiert ass. Den Design huet eng gebéite Kant an eng breet Ënnerstëtzungsfläch, fir eng bequem an entspaant Sëtzpositioun ze bidden. De Sëtzschaum passt sech ënner Gewiicht liicht un, sou datt d'Sëtzfläch dem Kierper follegt. D'Kierperstruktur ass aus Holz, an de Sëtz enthält Schaum mat enger Dicht vun 30. De Sofa moosst 110 op 95 op 50 Zentimeter. Déi einfach Form soll d'Simplicitéit vum Naturstee reflektéieren an e Gefill vu Vertrautheet schafen. Stoniture gouf 2023 zu Teheran designt.
