Concept
Comfortable. As mobile work moves around, it often needs to spread out — at home, at universities, in hotel rooms, even in creative business environments. Hosu encourages spreading out. Designed by Patricia Urquiola, this unique work lounge creates a comforting personal space to relax and get things done.
The single seat lounge can be ordered with a convertible chaise foldout. The two-seat sofa brings two people together even if they are focused on different tasks. Hosu features convenient rear and side storage pockets and cord pass-through. Its unique textured fabric, also designed by Urquiola, is offered in six exclusive colors.
- Single convertible or fixed lounge; double fixed lounge
- Storage pockets and cable pass-through
- 6 custom colors
- Coordinating lumbar pillow is standard
