The interest in Barbara comes from how the main volumes are resolved rather than from added decoration. A robust back encircles a deep, thick seat that curves around the edge of the armrests. Barbara sofas embrace the curved aesthetic while retaining a fairly conventional shape.
Give Barbara some space around its sides and back so the curve can be read from more than one direction. It works especially well floating in a living room or sitting area where the sofa can become the visual centre rather than simply lining a wall.
“The strongest result comes from allowing the silhouette to remain visible in daily use.”
Barbara has a clearly defined role and footprint, which makes it easy to integrate without overcomplicating the room.
Use a lower coffee table and one contrasting chair shape rather than repeating the sofa’s volume everywhere. A quieter rug will help the seating remain the main gesture.
