designed by Hella Jongerius, 2005/2015

Hella Jongerius’s Polder Compact translates the patchwork of the Dutch landscape into a sofa with a low, horizontal body and asymmetrical cushions. Different fabrics, textures and shades are brought together in four coordinated colour palettes.

Two armrests of different heights frame the generous seating area, while its 225 cm width makes it suitable for smaller homes. The lower armrest can be positioned on either side to suit the room. A wooden frame supports seat cushions with a pocket spring core and layered foam upholstery.

Removable covers make the sofa easier to care for. Wood or horn buttons in a light or dark set add distinctive details, with natural variations in grain and colour giving each piece its own character.
