Trio is an intelligent seating furniture concept that adapts effortlessly to the life and preferences of its owner. Stretching out horizontally is also expressly encouraged. Remove the corner rest and the sofa becomes a recamier, then take away the back rest as well to create a cosy sofa bed. Reassembled and combined with additional stool elements, the design presents itself as a laid-back seating ensemble or a cosy reclining area. Trio embodies a young, carefree attitude towards life. This is typified by its system concept and effortless transformation, with the same set of modules creating constantly new worlds.
Carefree cushions for an unconventional lifestyle: The first draft by team form ag in 1973 was already so forward-looking that its characteristic design with basic and typical details such as the double outer seam still define the new Trio programme today. Its inner workings have developed along modern lines with a high-quality wooden frame made of beech wood. Welting ensures the effortless cleaning or changing of the covers. The undersides of the back and arm rests have special fleeces in order to give them a constantly "firm" grip on the upholstery when regrouping as required. The design principle remains timelessly modern: The three basic modules (seat element, back and arm rests) are not permanently connected; with just a few clicks, endless new configurations can be created.
The all-rounder also appears as a sofa bed, ideal for use in apartments, studios or guest rooms. In no time at all, the generous elements of the 1 metre deep sofa can be folded out to lengths of 1.5 or 2 metres.
