The dining sofa from online furniture store sofacompany.com is a modern alternative to traditional dining chairs.
Danish designer Cathrine Rudolph is behind the look of sofacompany.com’s Scandi-inspired Garret dining sofa, a new addition to the Danish brand’s extensive furniture collection. Cathrine, who has a background in textile design, chose to cover the dining sofa in two shades of soft-to-the-touch velour, a dusty pink and a dark grey. The standard sofa features a straight, high backrest with classic button detailing and smoked-oak legs.

The upright Garret dining sofa from sofacompany.com, which costs R9 299, encourages socialising around the dining table.
Compared with traditional dining chairs, the Garret “provides a more intimate, cocooning dining experience,” says sofacompany.com partner Jonathan Sherwin. “It also works beautifully matched with equally well-designed dining chairs to create a modern, eclectic dining area.”
Around the corner from the existing sofacompany.com showroom in De Waterkant, Cape Town, is a 760 m2 pop-up showroom at 72 Hudson Street where you can view the Garret and more than 150 signature pieces.
