Knoll's 'Biboni' Sofa: A Blend of 1970s Icons and the Michelin Man

Architects Sharon Johnston and Mark Lee designed the 'Biboni' sofa for Knoll, drawing inspiration from 1970s design icons, Bibendum, and macaroni.

The "Biboni" has a chubbiness that feels welcoming and informal," says Johnston. "It also has the precision and purity of a centrepiece in a room.

The 'Biboni' sofa collection features curves that boldly envelop the body, with a frame that appears to gently float, available in two-, three- and four-seaters, as well as sectionals with chaise options.
