Designed by Ray Wilkes and first introduced in 1976, this playful, eye-catching lounge seating has made a lasting impression.

We’ve updated the essential post-modern design with power and material options. Everything else we’ve kept the same, from its injection-moulded foam cushion construction to its integrated table option.

Scalable and Suitable

Whether you’re looking to inspire collaboration in a casual office setting, make a statement in your living room, or invigorate a student union, Wilkes Modular Sofa Group hits the mark. It comes in a range of configurations, from a single chair to a six-seat sofa, and – the beauty of modularity – you can specify a table instead of a seat unit anywhere along the run. A power option offers additional functionality. 

Structured for Comfort

Comfort starts with geometry – specifically the 105-degree angle of the seat and back. Steel brackets that join the seat and back have enough give that each back section can flex independently, providing a surprising level of individual comfort. The final factor? The rounded-edge cushions themselves, likened to the shape of Chiclet gum, which never “puddle” or lose their shape. 

Mod Versatility

For upholstery, you can go full PoMo with bright solids or put an entirely different twist on it with a textile from Maharam. Its distinctive silhouette paired with versatile upholstery options make it adaptable to a wide variety of architectural styles.

Additional Info

With its simple design, bold colours, and versatile configurations, it remains a beloved choice. Originally introduced in 1976, this collection's success was driven by innovation in manufacturing, resulting in its distinctive Chiclet-like cushions. Today, we've enhanced it with power and upholstery options, maintaining its enduring charm while catering to diverse tastes. The honesty of Wilkes's design and straightforward construction continue to make it a classic choice.
