COR - Trio Sofa, modular Seating

1972 by Team Form AG ( Franz Hero & Karl Odermatt )

Maximum mobility was the credo of the Swiss designers Franz Hero and Karl Odermatt of team Form AG when they created the original model of the upholstered furniture Trio in 1972, whose laid-back, loungy landscapes were a stark counter-design to the hard armrests and rigid backs of their time. With just three simple elements — stool, backrest, corner backrest — Trio opened up an almost endless number of variation possibilities.

Karl Odermatt still enthuses today when he talks about TRIO. Just "move parts around and slide them away, be mobile in your own home."

In the early seventies, great freedom also meant a rejection of hard backrests and any form of straight sitting. Lounging, slouching and hanging out were the order of the day.

In the middle and underneath: reclining landscapes made of foam on which guests cut a good figure and family and friends could snuggle up. The COR Trio Sofa makes all this possible!

 

The modular sofa system fits seamlessly into any environment. Take away the backrest and it can also be used as a very comfortable bed. The double outer seam gives trio a distinctive character while demonstrating its high quality and elaborate workmanship.

The quick change sofa with three simple elements that can be converted at will, look at the photos, we tried to give you an example of the endless possibilities. The backrests have a kind of invisible stopper fabric on the bottom, this prevents slipping, so that the backrests can be positioned freely!

For the round feet under the sofa, there are invisible brackets so that the elements do not come loose even on a slippery floor. 3x angular backrests + 4x straight backrests. Our opinion: the best sofa in the world!

 

This sofa is of astonishing size, perfect original condition.

Dimensions: 6x sqare elements (62cm H, 96cm D, 96cm L) + 1x small element (62cm H, 60cm D, 96cm L)
