Herman Miller USA, 1956 enameled metal, original vinyl upholstery 51 w x 31 d x 31 h in (130 x 79 x 79 cm)
From the same Herman Miller series as the Coconut chair, the Marshmallow Sofa recalls Nelson's own Ball Clock of 1949 for Howard Miller.
The sofa's finished state has the appearance of an exploded view, like a blueprint scheme revealing its structure. Now an icon of mid-century high design, the Marshmallow sofa is emblematic of the buoyant and optimistic atmosphere of the postwar design world.
Factory signed with both a metal disc and paper label.
