Presenting the remarkable "Mah Jong" sectional sofa, a creation by Hans Hopfer in collaboration with Kenzo Takada for Roche Bobois. This ensemble comprises an impressive total of twenty-one , including eleven square seat cushions that can also double as spacious ottomans and can be conveniently stacked. Additionally, it features one panoramic seat cushion, three straight seat backs, two flip-up seat back, one corner seat backs, and one panoramic seat back. Furthermore the set comes with six very unique cushions from Roche Bobois. This collection stands out for three key reasons. First, it exclusively features Kenzo Takada's premium fabrics. These specialty fabrics typically come at a premium in Roche Bobois' pricing, far exceeding the cost of plain materials. Unlike most sets, this exceptional collection uses these top-tier fabrics exclusively, resulting in a meticulously curated selection. The second noteworthy aspect is the outstanding, almost-new condition of this set. It is less than 8 years old, guaranteeing its durability. Please see below for more information on its condition. The third notable feature is its exceptional adaptability, making it a perfect fit for various living spaces. Complete with three corner elements, including a panoramic corner seat, this collection provides an ideal spot for relaxation and stretching out. The two extra corners allow for seamless placement around a room, forming a warm and inviting conversational space. Additionally, the inclusion of a flip-top seat back introduces a touch of Italian Maralunga style to your environment. A highly cherished feature of the Mah Jong system is its versatility in mixing and matching cushions and seat backs, offering limitless possibilities in arrangement. Whether your preference leans towards compact or expansive sofas, loveseats, lounge chairs, or ottomans, this system, boasting a wide array of fabric options, provides the freedom to personalize your space as frequently as you like. The 'Mah Jong' seating system, originally conceived by Hans Hopfer in 1971, remains an enduring icon of furniture design. Roche Bobois characterizes both the design and its creator as follows: Hans Hopfer, a multifaceted artist encompassing painting, sculpture, and design, crafted sofas that have become synonymous with Roche Bobois' collections. In the 1970s, Hopfer's innovative and relaxed approach to comfort reshaped interior design. The Mah Jong, born in 1971, epitomizes boundless freedom in terms of both function and form. Comprising just three basic elements that can be mixed and stacked, it offers infinite compositional possibilities. It can seamlessly transition between an armchair, sofa, lounge chair, or even a bed—a versatile space for relaxation, leisure, or lounging. The Mah Jong encourages experimentation and defies traditional living space norms, echoing the nonconformist ethos of its time. Pioneering from its inception and iconic in the present day, adorned by the likes of Missoni Home, Kenzo Takada, and Jean Paul Gaultier, this "free-form" modular seating system stands as a benchmark in fully customizable and creative design. This substantial Mah Jong sectional sofa, designed by Hans Hopfer for Kenzo Takada and Roche Bobois, harmonizes perfectly with various interior styles, including Post-Modern, Mid-Century Modern, Space Age Mod, Scandinavian Modern, Danish Modern, Contemporary, Zen, Minimalism, Traditional, Transitional, Hollywood Regency, Classical, or Art Deco. It can also make a striking statement in commercial spaces such as hotel lobbies, members' clubs, creative design studios, or high-rise executive offices. Utilize this set to create sofa sections, settee sections, easy chair sections, ottomans, chaises, and even a spacious daybed or room-sized night bed. The different elements offer endless possibilities to tailor your seating arrangement to suit your space perfectly.
