I've been seeing them everywhere. At my friends’ places, at my friends’ parents’ places. They come in all sorts of colour, even with flowers. They strike poses in magazines, on billboards in the subway, at the movies, on social networks… What’s with all this passion for Togo sofas?
Designed for Ligne Roset in 1973 by Michel Ducaroy, its super cool silhouette immediately evokes the 70s. Today it sells like hotcakes, if you don’t have a Togo you’ve missed the boat… well nearly ! It’s the pioneer, the boss of your TV room, the cocoon for cuddles, the supreme sofa.
