Alexander Girard
George Nelson Sling Sofa
Knoll Sofa
Im a long way from buying a new sofa. Shit I haven't even been able to enjoy my apartment in RVA, since I moved back to Virginia Beach. But if I could, the above three sofa's would be on my wish list. The first was designed by legendary textile designer Alexander Girard. This sofa was only produced for one year, and is extremely hard to find. Plus it commands a high price. I probably will never sit in it, let alone own it. The second is a sofa designed by George Nelson (or one of his associates) and is dubbed the "Sling Sofa." It's probably within my reach (one day.) I've seen a few, and when the leather is broken in, it's at its best. The last sofa was produced by Knoll. It's last on my list, only if the above two never find it's way into my living space. Simple, and a midcentury classic.
