The main purpose of Philipp Aduatz’ Sofa I is to function as a prototype for a smaller complement to the Dormeuse. It has an couch-like appearance, perfect for two people resting. The edition consists of five pieces where each piece is -due to the handwork- unique.
The pieces are made from polystyrene foam. After digitizing, the 3D scan data is used as basis for modeling the Sofa II, a new design currently still in process. The pieces of the edition Sofa I are coated with glue and a special polyurethane lacquer to make the objects durable and usable.
