Niche Sofa
Niche is a slightly enigmatic piece – as if it contains several eras at once. In a sense, this is also literally true. The form is contemporary and subtly playful, while the craftsmanship is traditional, executed with great skill.
About
Niche Club Sofa is a playful and idiosyncratic interpretation of the classic club chair. The piece was originally developed by Fogia together with the designers at TAF Studio for a very specific setting: the rounded alcoves of the restaurant at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm – a grand Venetian-inspired building from 1866. It’s original setting has left a distinct mark on the furniture’s character.

The designers / TAF
Stockholm-based TAF Studio was founded in 2002 by Gabriella Lenke and Mattias Ståhlbom, who began collaborating while studying at Konstfack. Working across furniture, lighting and interiors, the studio finds inspiration in everyday objects, familiar materials and details that might otherwise go unnoticed. Their approach combines straightforward solutions with unexpected ideas and a quiet sense of humour. In 2017, TAF received the Bruno Mathsson Prize.
