Office sofas that do more than fill a reception: the Brixworth two and three seaters that anchor a breakout space, the Emmy cushioned three seater for somewhere properly comfortable, and the Phoebe and Mimi curved sofas that make a waiting area feel designed rather than furnished. A sofa sets the tone of a space faster than anything else you can buy for it, which is why it pays to get the shape and cover right first time.
Choosing an office sofa
Firmness is the difference between domestic and contract furniture. An office sofa like the Brixworth sits firmer and slightly higher than a home one on purpose: visitors in work clothes need to get up gracefully, and foam that gets sat on fifty times a day has to hold its shape for years. The Emmy leans softer, for corners meant for lingering rather than perching.
Curves earn their keep in open rooms. The Phoebe and the Mimi three seater are made to float away from walls, so they suit receptions and atriums where a straight sofa would just look parked. In tighter rooms, a straight two seater plus an armchair usually gives more usable seats per square metre than one big three seater.
Building the full space
The Lamport comes as a matched armchair and sofa pairing if you want an instant set. Add a coffee table, a footstool or two, and for larger or odd shaped rooms consider modular seating instead. The whole family lives in the soft seating hub, with front of house pieces gathered under reception soft seating.
