Velar Sofa, w Cushions
Velar holds the body in a low, curved embrace, echoing the quiet comfort of sitting up in bed and letting time slow down.
About
Some sofas invite you to sit. Others invite you to settle in. Designed by Andreas Engesvik, Velar draws on the familiar comfort of sitting up in bed. A place where the body can lean back, shift, and gradually come to rest. With its low position, curved back, and open sides, it creates a soft enclosure. Supportive, yet never enclosing. Structured, yet allowing movement.

Good design often begins with curiosity. How does something work? And what happens when you approach a familiar object from a different direction? For Andreas Engesvik and Jannicke Grung, the designers behind Oslo-based studio Grung Engesvik, these questions are part of an ongoing conversation. Their work explores materials, construction and everyday use, bringing different perspectives together through experimentation and craftsmanship. The ambition is to create objects that people will enjoy using, caring for and keeping.
