Modern Sofa Design

Interesting application that contains the best design of the sofa.

Actually, the word 'sofa' dates back to 2000BC in Egypt, and is derived from the Arabic word 'suffah' which roughly translates to 'bench'. People have been perching their bums on sofas for thousands of years and although today’s sofas are infinitely comfier, with deep, squishy cushions and robust steel springing, it’s clear that mankind has been a fan of the sofa for so many years.

You’ve probably never given much thought to the spot in which many people spend a lot of their day. But the sofa has dramatically changed and evolved throughout time. People have always had a place to sit, but it hasn’t always been as pleasant and filled with cushions, and pillows like todays sofas. Our ancient ancestors used rocks, logs, or animal skins. Later when humans began building sofa like structures they were only for the rulers, or very wealthy.
