Organic Sofas

What is an organic sofa

An organic sofa is characterised by rounded, flowing shapes without sharp corners. Think rounded armrests, a curved backrest and sometimes asymmetric, staggered seat elements. The sofa often seems to float because the base is hidden or very slim. Some models have a deliberately irregular shape where no two seating sides are identical, which gives every sofa a playful, unique character.

Version and fabrics

Fabric makes a big difference on organic sofas. Bouclé is popular because the texture accentuates the rounded shapes beautifully and gives the sofa a soft, tactile presence. Velvet adds luxury and depth and catches the light handsomely. Soft microfibre also features. Leather is rarely seen on this type, because it is difficult to fold neatly around the curves. The soft, warm fabrics suit a contemporary interior well.

Does an organic sofa suit my interior

An organic sofa is a sub-style of modern. It is precisely the rounded shapes that form a beautiful contrast with clean architecture and straight walls, and bring warmth into them. The effect is strongest when you surround the sofa with other soft, rounded elements and do not place too many straight lines beside it. That way the sofa becomes the calm, inviting eye-catcher of the room.

Why buy an organic sofa at Mokana

At Mokana you can choose from unique furniture in a range of interior styles, ordered straight online and with our own delivery throughout the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. In our furniture store at Hogelandsingel 49 in Enschede you can experience the shapes and fabrics in person: the curves and the softness of bouclé or velvet only really come to life once you sit in them. Our consultants are happy to think along about model and arrangement, and payment can be made in instalments. Several versions are available for some models, so do ask about the options.

What combines with an organic sofa

Organic sofas come into their own in the company of other rounded furniture. Think a round coffee table, curved armchairs and a round mirror on the wall. That repetition of shapes makes the whole coherent and soft. Avoid too many sharp, straight lines in the same corner, and add a few warm home accessories for a complete, inviting seating area.
