Case by Sebastian Herkner is a collection of highback sofas that breathe a sense of calmness, concentration and comfort into everyday life in the workplace and in hospitality contexts. Though having a grand form, Herkner’s simple and slender line leaves the Case with a stringent and light expression without compromising on the comfort and function of the design. Sebastian Herkner is a German designer whose work is concentrated around the merging traditional craftsmanship with a curiosity towards modern technologies alongside a bold approach to color, materiality and textures. To further elevate and lighten the impression, Sebastian Herkner has added an elegant detail to the exterior back, which folds under the sofa. This approach to the design interrupts the monumental look while also creating an oblique angle inside that forms the sofa’s backrest. Viewed from behind, the folded back gives the sofa a sculptural dimension. The fold also reveals the complexity of the construction, making the side elements appear even more slender.
