Snow is a modular sofa concept created by Note Design Studio.
The Snow system is composed of 2 elements - a straight module and a rounded 30° module - that can be combined to create an infinity of shapes. The sofa is complemented by low modules that can be used as ottomans or can be combined to create straight or curved padded benches.

Note Design Studio is a collective of architects, graphic & product designers established in Sweden in 2008. They presented their first furniture pieces in 2010 during the Marginal exhibition where the colorful and sculptural creations were to define Note’s identity and originated their career as one of the main player in nowadays Nordic design scene.
Their style combines the elegant simplicity of Nordic design with a playful and almost naive identity.
What was the original inspiration for Snow ?
The moment when you wake up to a completely silent landscape shrouded in a thick veil of whitening snow. The architectural structure still visible underneath the heavy snow. The way snow forms around the object it lands on, when the silhouette of the object is still visible, but all hard edges are now covered with soft curves. And how, when you sit down on a snow dune, it forms around your body, leaving a perfect imprint.

The curved 30° elements allows to create a circular sofa reminiscent of the conversation pit of the 70s. The Snow collection convey this idea of relaxed opulence typical of the era.

There is something poetic in the way a snow-fall can drastically transform the landscape within just a few hours. It’s one of those “all sense” sort of experiences where the landscape and architecture appearance changes drastically with the sheer volume of the blinding white snow along with the silence that comes with the sound absorbing effect by thick layers of snow. It's astonishing how the small snow crystals that are so fragile and light can become so heavy and thick.

The cushions of the seat are suspended between the padded legs, and create a dramatic effect from the back.
A low straight and curved module is available to optimize the layout of your sofa.
Both the seat and the legs are fully padded and can be upholstered in different fabrics.
SNOW has been shown for the first time during the Collectible Fair 2022.
