Saruyama Sofa
The Moroso Saruyama Sofa by Toshiyuki Kita brings three independently shaped upholstered elements together into a broad seating island.
Rising backs and sloping surfaces form an undulating landscape around the seat. Molded polyurethane foam over plywood bases gives the connected arrangement its sculptural volume, with fixed covers following the irregular contours.
