The Togo sofa is the representation of a timeless piece, scroll down to know why!

Not only is the world in constant motion, along with this, almost all fields are also as well. What do I mean by this? I mean if we take a look back a couple of years or even decades ago it's amazing how fields like fashion, makeup, all kinds of designs have changed and progressed as time goes by. Colors, shapes, and styles now follow other standards which we consider "chic" or "trendy".

Now, from time to time in this constant design progress, pieces are created with an authentic style, as much as to meet the different standards of aesthetics and style over time. This is what we call a timeless piece.

“Timeless is anything with a strong appeal of its own, a strong voice that breaks through the years passing or even centuries.”

Richard Sorger, fashion designer and senior lecturer at Middlesex University.

According to Codogirl, a site expert in fashion, a timeless piece implies design that always remains on-trend. Timelessness applies to iconic, centerpiece items, built to last the test of both time and trend. But, what makes a furniture piece timeless, and why the Togo sofa is one of them?

Well, there are certain elements in timeless pieces that you can find in other objects in order to determine which are timeless and which are not. The general features that this kind of pieces has is being versatile, this means that they can be mixed or combined with almost any style. So, they have to basically be fittable to any style.

One of the important features we must consider when we are trying to recognize timeless pieces is the look. They should provide a simplistic and classic look, such as the case of the Togo sofa.

This sofa has had a great impact on the design being a revolutionary piece for its relaxed and lounge style, but at the same time showing a sophisticated character with its aniline leather. Besides, the curved lines, the subtlety of its legs, and the super thick cushions define the Togo sofa as one of the most comfortable ever created.

You may think these are just words, but no! An interesting fact about according to Design Milk is that when Michel Ducaroy’s sofa was ”first presented at the Salon des Arts ménagers at the Palais de la Défense, Paris, in 1973 it was awarded the René-Gabriel prize, which recognized ‘innovative and democratic furniture—pieces that offered a good price-to-quality ratio. It’s been described as having a ‘crumpled’, ‘newborn’ appearance with Shar-Pei wrinkles.”

Togo has over forty years in production and is one of the best sellers in many stores, including Manhattan Home Design. So if you are interested in acquiring one of these timeless pieces, November is your month! Why? Because here at MHD we have amazing Black Friday deals!
