Fritz Hansen – Ro sofa 2 seater aluminum base

Ro showcases the sinuous shape and playful expression that underlies Jaime Hayon’s renowned design philosophy. Here, softness is expressed in an intimate but spacious social environment for two. The typical trumpet-shaped aluminium legs of Hayon perfectly complement the expanded staircase of this imposing two-seater sofa, giving a strong balance ballet to its sculptural magnificence.

Jaime Hayon
