George Nelson
When writing about the course of his remarkable 50-year career, George Nelson described a series of creative "zaps" — moments of out-of-the-blue inspiration "when the solitary individual finds he is connected with a reality he never dreamed of."
Nelson said that for a designer to deal creatively with human needs, "he must first make a radical, conscious break with all values he identifies as antihuman." Designers also must constantly be aware of the consequences of their actions on people and society. In fact, he declared that "total design is nothing more or less than a process of relating everything to everything." So he said that rather than specializing, designers must cultivate a broad base of knowledge and understanding.
Nelson did so as few are able, and, with the help of well-timed zaps, he helped define modern, humane design.
The playful Marshmallow Sofa is a landmark of modern design that's still turning heads and making people smile. The whimsical design features 18 round, comfortable cushions "floating" on the frame. Cushions can be detached for easy cleaning and interchanged to equalize wear or create a new look. And cushions can be ordered in a single color or multiple colors for the right look in a private office, lobby, lounge, living room, or den.
Notes: This is a special order item. Non-returnable.
Dimensions: H 31" W 52" D 29" SH 16"
