Phantom Hands X+L 05 Modular fabric sofa

The X+L 05 modular sofa set comprises individual upholstered units that are available without arms, with one arm (left or right) or with both arms.‎ Individual units can be used in different combinations to form a single seater, two or three seater sofa (illustrated in the image at the bottom of this page).‎ Each unit has a seat cushion and a pair of back cushions.‎ The sofa units are designed to be wide and spacious, with plenty of room for comfortable lounging.‎  The X+L 05 modular sofa is upholstered in a cotton/linen blend fabric called Andaman, produced by Zanav Home.‎ Andaman fabric is produced by hand, with the final weave done on traditional powerlooms.‎ The fabric is dyed using the vat dyeing process in which the yarn is turned manually in and out of a vat containing solubilized dyes, resulting in continuous reduction and oxidation deep into the fibre until the desired colour is achieved.‎ The yarn picks up dye differentially, and the result is a subtle inconsistency of colour, which is the hallmark of the vat dyeing process.‎  The legs and backrest of the sofa units are made of Burma Teak.‎ Wood finish: Natural Teak / Dark Stain Fabric: Andamans The X+L collection consists of objects designed by Dutch design duo Xander Vervoort and Leon van Boxtel.‎ The objects in this collection are inspired by X+L's interest in art and architecture, as well as their deep appreciation of simple, honest materials and structures.‎ X+L’s distinctive aesthetic, recycling and zero waste are important themes in the creation of some of the objects in this collection.‎ Further info from manufacturer on X+L 05 Phantom Hands
