According to designer Gulleik Løvskar, more than one type of furniture is needed for a long day of office work. As an alternative to the common chair, he’s created the Bended Sofa, a new kind of furniture designed for stretching and relaxing in the workplace. Lay on it, lounge on it, play on it—with its simple elegant arch, Løvskar has left the possibilities open ended. “Good ideas come up when you feel good and are relaxed, the sofa is meant for a creative break,” he said.
