5. LEAN ON ME
The Edra Standard sofa by Francesco Binfaré has an appealing and adaptable form that is perfect for lounging on. The hidden joints allow for the cushions to be propped upwards as backrests, or even downwards as armrests. It’s why Ang selected it for a basement entertainment room to provide maximum comfort for the owners, making the area “a comfortable space to entertain and be entertained in”, adds Ang. “It marries simplicity with comfort.”
