Concept
Mell
Mellow is another word for soft. And it is to this particular quality that the designer duo Jehs+Laub have dedicated a modern element furniture programme with gently rounded back cushions and seating surfaces. It appears almost to float on delicate metal frames. The softness factor is further increased by sumptuous cushions as an invitation to lean back or stretch out in comfort. Its suitability as a 'crumple zone' is entirely intentional. Individual seating landscapes can be created from the various elements with and without back and arm rests, foot stools and occasional tables. These can stand alone in the room or be linked together, grouped as easy chair / sofa combinations or planned as an elongated couch. MELL LOUNGE has a sister, more straightforward and somewhat more delicately shaped on the outside, just as comfortable on its upholstered inside, and ideal for rooms with limited space. The name will not come as a surprise: this programme variant is called quite simply MELL. Available in fabric and leather.
Mell Lounge
Mell Lounge is an engrossing character: angular on the outside, round on the inside, and well thought-out to the last detail. This is made evident not only in the form of casual seating comfort, but also by the graphic progression of the seams. In addition, the steel skids are so delivately fomed that Mell almost appears to be floating. A closer look reveals that it has rounded corners- details that denote minimalist elegance. Mell Lounge is not just a sofa and easy chair, but also cushions and a comfort zone, connection element, footstool and table. Taken together, the result is seating landscapes that meet individual requirements: always comfortable and with a special lightness that is conveyed by the fine steel skids on the tables and seating furniture.
