Toast
Toast is a modular sofa designed for tool-free assembly. The base consists of I-shaped and L-shaped solid wood blocks with grooves that are joined by plugging. The backrest and seat cushions are separate modules inserted into the grooves of the base. Stainless steel fittings connect the modules and allow various combinations. The solid wood base uses mortise and tenon joints for strength and is finished with environmentally friendly wood wax oil. Damaged parts can be replaced individually, which extends the service life of the sofa and reduces furniture waste.
