Poul Series Sofa: Three-Seater

This 3-Seater Sofa is constructed with separated cushioned panels for the seat, back, and sides, all held and supported by a steel frame and lower crossbar fitted for this seating arrangement.

The Poul Series seating system is a tribute to Kjærholm's original PK31 sofa and chair series, built to the designer's exact design and materials specifications. This sofa system utilizes the same parts for each size, whether its a 1, 2, 3, 4 or more seated sofa, with the only variant being its size-specific lower crossbar. This unique system allows for the sofa to be an almost infinite length, connecting additional crossbars as needed to make the desired arrangement. This, along with its precise geometry, illustrates Poul Kjærholm's systematic approach to building the perfect furniture form.

Kjærholm once remarked, "I am trying to express the very language of the materials themselves." This philosophy is embodied in the PK31 series, with the inherent beauty of the upholstery and steel revealed by juxtaposing their textures, employing precise lines, and embracing minimalism. The Poul 3-Seater Sofa combines elegant luxury with comfort, showcasing Kjærholm's harmonious blend of industrial and natural materials, firmly positioning the PK31 series within the history of Danish Modernism.

Poul Kjærholm was a Danish furniture designer who revolutionized modern design with his precise craftsmanship and innovative material combinations. Beginning his career at just 19, Kjærholm quickly established himself through his rigorous attention to structural clarity and material integrity. His work seamlessly blended steel—his preferred material—with leather, cane, and rope, creating pieces that were industrial and organic.

Poul Kjærholm's approach is personified in designs like the PK22 chair, PK31 modular system, and the sculptural PK9 Tulip chair. Kjærholm's exacting standards and minimalist aesthetic have had a lasting influence on Danish and global furniture design.
