Islet: A Sensual Pause in a Restless World
Alessandro
Scandinavian design has always excelled at one thing: making calm feel luxurious.
Islet, SOFACOMPANY’s new limited-edition chaise longue, captures that philosophy in its purest form. A sculptural piece imagined by Swedish designers Matilda Lindstam Nilsson and Charlotte Samuelsson, it translates the serenity of Bohuslän’s sun-warmed coast into an object made for daily rituals of rest.
Inspired by the seals stretching across the smooth rocks of Sweden’s west coast, Islet carries a quiet, organic presence. Its curves feel fluid, almost meditative, the kind of shape that settles into a room without effort, yet shifts its atmosphere instantly. A piece that doesn’t try to dominate space, but to soften it.
Available now in two exclusive finishes, Islet reveals two distinct moods. Velour Lux Navy is deep, immersive, almost nocturnal, a shade that gives a room weight and intimacy. Danny Dusty Rose leans toward the poetic: soft, powdery, subtly luminous. Both versions are offered exactly as they are, reinforcing the design’s sculptural identity and the designers’ original vision.
At €1,299, the chaise longue embodies SOFACOMPANY’s commitment to accessible Danish design, meticulous materials, thoughtful construction, and a value chain fully controlled by the brand. It’s an object shaped with intention, not excess. A statement, yes, but one whispered rather than shouted.
Islet isn’t simply a place to sit. It’s a pause. A stretch. A private horizon at home. A reminder that comfort can be beautifully composed, and that stillness has its own elegance when expressed through design.
Sometimes luxury is loud; sometimes it’s a quiet curve inviting you to lie back, breathe, and take in the moment. Islet belongs to the latter, a sculptural escape made for those who appreciate the art of calm.
