Arper Introduces The Shaal by Doshi Levien
Structured and soft like a basket of pillows, Shaal wraps around us in a welcoming embrace, inviting tactility and warmth into any space, from residential to contract. New for 2022, Shaal expands Arper’s sofa offering, marrying exceptional comfort and flexible modular configuration. A supportive shell cradles Shaal’s deep cushioning, elevating the gracious form off the ground.
Shaal’s distinctive design is derived from its dualities: generous yet weightless, anchoring yet adaptable, sustainable yet luxurious. Create the hospitality of home, anywhere. Shaal brings together the heightened comfort of residential furnishings with the adaptability of modular construction. The Shaal system comprises six core modules, which can be combined to create angular or linear 2 or 3-seater configurations that expand and adapt to different spatial needs for home, office, or hospitality. An upholstered rigid panel creates a high back that cradles Shaal’s supremely plush cushions. Both panel and cushions allow for ultimate expressivity with endless combinations of materials including leather and bespoke textiles. The Shaal sofa is conceived with consideration for its entire lifestyle. Removable upholstery can be replaced to extend its life, and components and materials can be separated for recycling.
