French Mid-Century Modern Sofa / Day Bed by A.R.P

An early French Architectural Mid-Century Modernist sofa / daybed by A.R.P. Atelier de Recherche Plastique. The sofa / divan presents a pure 1960 architectural statement in it’s rectilinear, quadratric form and through the use of an exposed steel suspension system which support the cushions. The couch is composed of an long seat cushion with a color in the spirit of Yves Klein which is cantilevered over an open, black enameled steel frame. The 3 back cushions, also in the same Blue, are supported by a black steel framework housing the same Blue color fabric back support giving this piece an architectural unity.
