Interpreted in four forms, Toby combines the rollback shaping and round, chunky slant of 1930’s club furniture with more architectural late-modern details. The chaise, with its grand scale and wide aerodynamic front, could be at home in the living room as well as the bedroom. The Toby Sofa with its bold lines and tight tailored construction is a polished alternative to over-filled country chic sofas of similar size. The lounge chair, with its distinctive silhouette, is especially attractive in pairs. A versatile ottoman is scaled to work with the Toby seating. All pieces share taut upholstering, with a modern convex profile at the arms. In another modern detail, a recessed platform creates a cantilevering effect, with the body of each piece extending out and hovering over the base to create an unexpected sense of lightness.
