Aluxo Pebble Boucle Curved Sofa in Grey

Description

A 3.4 metre curve, not a straight line

Most large sofas solve one problem — seating — and create another, which is that they push every conversation into a straight row facing a television. The Pebble is shaped the other way. Its 340cm run bends through a long, shallow curve, so the people sitting at each end are angled slightly towards one another rather than staring at the same wall.

That shape also means it does not have to live against a wall. In an open-plan room the curve works as a divider, separating a sitting area from a dining or kitchen space without a single piece of joinery. If your room is a long rectangle and you have been trying to make a conventional three-plus-two work in it, this is the piece that solves it.

Grey boucle

Boucle is a looped yarn rather than a flat weave, so the surface carries a dense, slightly nubbly pile. On a curved frame that matters more than it does on a square one: the loops catch light differently across the bend, which is what stops a sofa this size from reading as a single flat slab of fabric. The grey is a mid, neutral tone that sits comfortably against both warm woods and cooler greys.

Low back, deep seat

At 76cm tall the back is deliberately low. On a piece this long a high back would dominate the room and block sightlines across it; keeping it low means the sofa reads as furniture rather than as a wall. The 95cm depth gives you a seat you sit back into, and the loose bolster cushions let you set your own back support rather than living with whatever the frame dictates.

Dimensions

• Overall width: 340cm
• Depth: 95cm
• Height: 76cm

Supplied in joining sections so it can be brought through a standard doorway and assembled in the room. Please measure your access route before ordering — a curved piece of this length needs a clear path, and we would rather you checked than had a delivery fail.

Specification

Where the Pebble works best

Because it is curved rather than straight, the Pebble needs a little more floor depth than a conventional sofa of the same width: allow for the bow of the curve as well as the 95cm seat depth when you mark it out. It is at its best floating in an open-plan room, facing a fireplace, a coffee table or a window, or set in front of a dining area to define the living zone. Against a straight wall it leaves a gap behind the middle of the curve, which some people use for a console table or a floor lamp.

At 340cm it seats four to five adults comfortably, and the curve means guests at the ends can talk to each other without leaning forward. Pair it with a round or oval coffee table to echo the line of the sofa; a square table tends to fight with the shape.

Frequently asked questions

How big is the Pebble sofa?

It is 340cm wide, 95cm deep and 76cm high. Allow extra floor depth for the curve itself when planning the room.

Will it fit through my door?

It is supplied in joining sections rather than as one 340cm piece, so it is designed to pass through a standard doorway. Please measure your narrowest point, including turns on the stairs, before ordering.

How many people does it seat?

Four to five adults comfortably, depending on how you use the bolster cushions.
