Sleek in line, powerful in simplicity. This vintage BR03 sofa bed by Martin Visser for 't Spectrum is a paragon of 1960s Dutch modernism - designed in 1960 and still a beloved design icon today.
The sofa has a black steel frame with an understated, minimalist look and a clever function: the seat slides smoothly forward, transforming the sofa into a full-size bed. The design is clear and constructive, with clear influences from Visser's inspirations such as Gerrit Rietveld and Le Corbusier. The upholstery has been completely renewed in a deep green furniture fabric with subtle white nuances. The padding, straps and arm cushion are also new, making the sofa bed not only an aesthetic statement, but also comfortable and ready to use.
A rare combination of museum-worthy design and everyday convenience - for those who love functional design with a soul.
