Walter Knoll Jaan Living sofa • 3-seater

Walter Knoll Jaan sofa

The generous upholstered surfaces of the sofa and chaise longue rest on the slender frame as if floating. A balanced combination of lightness and volume. The casual look of the leather gives the sofa an elegant and at the same time inviting presence, while the relaxed feather filling provides particularly soft seating comfort – for leaning back, relaxing and lingering for a long time.

The back, too, becomes a designed front: shelf boards in glass or leather offer additional comfort for short daydreams and long evenings of reading. The Sunday paper, a wine glass or a tablet are always within reach. At the same time the shelf surfaces are ideal for arranging lamps, vases or cushions in style.

Cold foam: Cold foam is a high-quality, dimensionally stable upholstery foam distinguished by its particular elasticity and resilience. It adapts comfortably to the body without losing its shape. In high-quality upholstered furniture, cold foam provides precise, comfortable and lastingly dimensionally stable seating. After being under load the material quickly returns to its original shape, so fewer permanent seat impressions form and the cushion keeps its characteristic shape.

Note: the hides are selected by specialists according to strict specifications and high testing standards. By nature, leather has soft and firm areas of skin, which may also be worked side by side. It stretches in use through body heat and moisture. This produces a certain degree of waves and creases (known as seat impressions). Favourite spots document this particularly clearly. This adaptation process is largely complete after a few weeks. Further stretching is minimal and inconspicuous. Depending on the tanning method, dyeing and surface treatment, leather initially has a smell typical of the material. It diminishes noticeably over the course of a few weeks and airing can speed this up. For one upholstery group, Walter Knoll works several hides (between five and seven). No hide is like another. Insect bites, minor injuries from fences or traces of fighting leave small scars on the cowhide that you may rediscover in the leather. Growth folds are a sign of the animal's health and good nutrition. These material-typical characteristics do not impair the quality of the leather furniture. Differences in sheen, colour and structure within a hide and between the cut parts of a cover are also characteristic and typical of leather furniture.
