Free flowing Bob
Shape Bob anyway you want. Let the totally adaptable sofa snake around pillars, flow
along walls, and twist around meeting areas. Bob will obediently conform to any space,
or endow it with a forceful yet immensely comfortable structure. Thanks to Thomas
Bernstrand and Stefan Borselius’ meticulously designed modular solution, Bob can be
built straight, in hairpin bends, like a boomerang, or whatever shape takes your fancy.
Bob offers architectonic freedom of flow, and with no conventional back, Bob can face
totally upholstered in every direction – opening up for even more possibilities when
adapting to ever-changing interior architecture. The straightforward construction with a
frame in FSC-certified plywood with sturdy yet soft moulded foam requires a minimum
of maintenance. Bob comes in a broad selection of fabrics and colours.
At its launch in 2017, Bob was hailed as Best Product - Editor’s Choice at both the
Stockholm Furniture Fair and ICFF in New York, before being crowned with the German
Design Award 2018. Bob has now become even more flexible with two new elements
that allow for even more sensuous shapes as well as freestanding seating islands. Attach
the new add-on steel table Cut between the modular elements, or choose the freestand-
ing Jack table, which can serve as a hub connected to the electric outlets on Bob. With
an optional base in black stained oak, Bob is now also offered as a slightly raised
version for public spaces.
”We have made Bob even more practical,” says Stefan Borselius. ”The new elements
allow for gentler curves and freestanding seating islands.”
”The new 11.5 degree elements mean seats can face in any direction;” claims Thomas
Bernstrand, ”you have even greater flexibility to create shapes, and you can build little
stools as well.”
