This cool small red sofa is by Raison Pure Design Studio. As nicely put by Mocoloco: “Escape to the other side of the mirror when you hide behind the Double Je (double me) sofa from R’ Pure Studio. From behind, the sofa disappears into its surroundings, a reflection of its environment, while the user disappears into its contours. Perfect for a time where we choose to reveal too much”. In any case, some people will find this small sofa quite practical. The mirror obviously helps to ‘hide’ it, possibly making the interior look less busy plus creating some unusual effect.
