Beau, an expansive modular seating system overspilling with comfort and sensory appeal. Too big to keep under wraps, Beau’s voluptuous form welcomes the sitter to relax right back into its soft, generous cushioning and experience the ultimate level of comfort.

This big-is-beautiful philosophy extends throughout a wide selection of modular units, enabling interior designers to craft vast landscapes of comfort, with a sense of freedom and openness that puts the user at ease, encouraging conversation and collaboration. With its smooth, clean lines, Beau will bring optimum comfort to a variety of spaces including workplace, hospitality, education and retail.

The Design Process

To achieve this level of comfort, the design team built a custom seating jig enabling them to test various forms of suspension along with different combinations of foam. Layers of foam made from different materials, at different densities and thicknesses were tested in pursuit of maximum comfort, while ensuring Beau would return to its original form after use.

Testing the seat with people of different sizes and shapes, the team looked for that ‘ahhh’ response. It wasn’t until a combination of a serpentine sprung seat, a webbed back section and a precise formulation of layered foam was achieved that work began on Beau’s external look and feel.

Notes

“A lot of furniture is designed for us to sit ‘on’, but our ambition with Beau was always to create something people can relax ‘into’ – seating so soft and relaxed that it molds to the form of the sitter and makes them feel like they are at one with the piece,” says Aaron Clarkson, Beau’s lead designer. 

“Beau is big on comfort – both inside and out. The work that went into developing the perfect sit is conveyed through shapes that are oversized, exaggerated and curvaceous. Beau’s gentle, organic lines have been sculpted rather than engineered, for a look inspired by the smooth, rounded softness of dough rising and overspilling the pan. It’s simple but it’s beautiful,” says Mark Barrell, design director at Boss Design.
