The crossover sofa is always a difficult balance to achieve, it must not look like a strange collision of period but must appear an effortless alignment of classic signifier and modern form. The Ruben is a sofa that accomplishes this feat with considered aplomb. Neither fully of this time nor of the past it is significant for its delightful but definite ambiguity. Its classic tight scroll arms have a slim pipe detail which is not repeated anywhere else and the front three-ball legs are perfectly complemented by a slender tapered rear leg. Its tightly tailored body contrasts with its looser reflex foam and duck feather seat cushions and the three slightly higher than usual blended duck feather and fibre backs. This combination of taut discipline and casual repose provides a wonderful contemporary twist and also ensures that the Ruben is always as comfortable as it is beautiful.

If you are interested in our sofas and unable to visit our lovely Hove showroom then why not contact us and we can advise and quickly provide you with a provisional quotation.
