Designed by Ray Wilkes and first introduced in 1976, this playful, eye-catching lounge seating has made a lasting impression. The essential post-modern design has been updated with power and material options, while maintaining its original injection-moulded foam cushion construction and integrated table option.
- Reintroducing a classic that’s versatile, inviting and wickedly self-assured: The Wilkes Modular Sofa Group is a playful, post-modern design with Chiclet-shaped cushions. Available as a chair or up to a six-seat sofa, with an optional table unit.
- Structured for Comfort: Comfort starts with geometry – specifically the 105-degree angle of the seat and back. Steel brackets join the seat and back, allowing each back section to flex independently for individual comfort. The rounded-edge cushions, likened to Chiclet gum, never “puddle” or lose their shape.
- Scalable and Suitable: Ideal for collaboration in casual office settings, making a statement in living rooms, or invigorating student unions. Available in a range of configurations, from a single chair to a six-seat sofa. Modularity allows specification of a table instead of a seat unit anywhere along the run. Power option available for additional functionality.
- Mod Versatility: Upholstery options include bright solids for a full PoMo look or textiles from Maharam for a different twist. Distinctive silhouette and versatile upholstery options make it adaptable to a wide variety of architectural styles.
- Design Story: Ray Wilkes designed the modular seating to be minimalist in spirit, with its iconic form made possible by advanced technology.
