Perfectly proportioned and effortlessly minimalist, the Sum Modular collection makes the ideal focal point for any living space. Developed by Simon Legald in conjunction with Normann Copenhagen, the range combines sumptuous comfort with contemporary aesthetics and an incredible degree of versatility.
The three-seater sofa adds plenty of seating to your living spaces, with generously curved back and armrests that mirror the human form to provide an exceptional degree of support. The fabric upholstery enhances the overall effect of the design, allowing you to tie the piece into your existing decor. The modular design allows you to reconfigure it to suit your needs.
Simon Legald studies design at the The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, and will graduate in the Summer of 2012. His work consists of both small- and large scale products.
“Honesty is what makes a product understandable, and is what describes functionality of the products. If you understand the product, it doesn’t need any explanation. The essence of my design is for it to be bought and used. Therefore it has to satisfy not only the functional aspects, but also the psychological- and aesthetic needs. For me simplicity describes the true identity of objects, and makes them trustworthy. In my designs I try not to add any unnecessary details. I work with simplicity by highlighting the necessities instead of hiding them. It gives the product a simple and honest expression.”
