rolls-royce bespoke design
#MAGICCARPET rolls-royce cars have been renowned for the magic carpet ride driving experience and this piece of furniture proposes yet another example to follow the motto. the sofa is designed as a single piece suspended from the ceiling to create a warming social space for three or a floating personal space for one.

carbon fibre is chosen for its lightness & strength ratio to deliver a seamless continuous look while showing bmw group’s expertise in the material. white silk combined with the soft cushions is delicate to touch for the ultimate comfort & relaxation. two brushed-copper dials controll the overhead lighting system, a usability highlight as well as detailed refinement.
the large cushions are carefully divided into four main articles for an optimum removal of lines leaving an easy welcoming environment. the slight curvature of the base gently pulls the users towards each other for better engagement while the backrest leans backwards accordingly to stimulate the space.
