Patterned Sofas from the 20th & 21th centuries

The American designer George Nelson designed this sofa during the early part of the twentieth century. The sofa is interesting because the actual individual cushions make up the pattern.

The actual leather material in this British leather sofa makes up the pattern. It is a new artifact and I thought that the natural made pattern was interesting.


The large modular pieces in this modern Italian sofa emphasize the pattern more than the sofa itself. I thought it was visually interesting to emphasize the pattern more than the actual artifacts.
