George Nelson Leather Cube Sofa from Herman Miller

George Nelson’s famous sofa combines hard lines with a soft touch.

A study in hard vs. soft, George Nelson’s Cube Sofa juxtaposes a rigorous wood frame with soft, tufted cushions for low-key lounging. This 1968 design has a geometric shape, giving it an effortless and timeless modern look. Its gentled angled seatback provides an equal measure of give and support, and invites laidback lounging. The George Nelson Cube Sofa measures 27h x 81.5w x 31.5”d with a seat height of 16” and a seat depth of 21”. The sofa can comfortably seat three people. Both George Nelson and the sofa’s manufacturer, Herman Miller, are represented in MoMA’s collection.
