Both relaxing and supportive, the Luva Modular Sofa Group is a study in duality: incredibly versatile yet visually irresistible. Luva, Portuguese for “glove”, was designed at Gabriel Tan Studio in Porto, Portugal. Its shape was inspired by the soft grip and padded support of boxing gloves, as well as the delicate rolled tops of Japanese futons or Shikibuton. The result is a distinct, visually soft form, grounded in natural textiles and organic lines.

Much like the glove it emulates, Luva can expand into an open back, allowing for a relaxed lounging posture. With a closed “fist”, it becomes a more supported seat, serving as a place to chat and work.

Luva is available in several configurations, from an armchair, a chaise lounge, to a sofa or sectional. A detachable ottoman adds to the variety. Thanks to a hidden bar near the bottom of the seat, these pieces can be grouped together easily or moved apart as desired, all without changing the tactile, plush aesthetic.
