Ernest

Radical comfort. With modularity as a starting point, Ernest is formed with soft, deconstructed volumes inspired by a down cushion.

The juxtaposition of different elements allows for the configuration of small, large, linear, or L-shaped sofas without ever losing the expressive power of the design. Refined, inviting, and ultimately flexible, Ernest is a new icon of comfort with a touch of retro sophistication.

Designed by Jean-Marie Massaud for Poliform, the Ernest sofa is available in New Zealand from Studio Italia.
