Cocoon sofa by Jens Juul Eilersen for Eilersen

Dezeen Showroom: Danish brand Eilersen has released three new multicoloured variants of its Cocoon sofa, including a Bauhaus edition that plays with primary colours and geometric forms.

Created by third-generation Eilersen designer Jens Juul Eilersen in 2008, Cocoon is a sofa that is meant to evoke the feeling of retreating into a pupa, with cushions of all shapes and sizes to help the sitter build a restorative nest.

There are three new multicoloured editions of the Cocoon sofa, including a Bauhaus-themed variant

"As I played around with the idea of what it must feel like to be a caterpillar spinning silk, the image of a gigantic toy box arose," said Jens Juul Eilersen. "A giant toy box with triangular cushions, lumbar cushions, head cushions, armrests, neck cushions – in fact, cushions of all shapes and sizes."

"It allows you to choose your own level of comfort while also having fun building and sitting on the sofa."

The colours bring out the play of geometries in the cushions

Following the success of a previous multicoloured version, Eilersen is now releasing the sofa in three new variations: Bloom, Blues and Bauhaus.

Bloom conjures the feeling of landscape with shades of green, pink and yellow, while Blues references calmness and coastlines. Bauhaus is more urban, with a combination of pastel and jewel shades of red, yellow and blue that reference the modernist art school and emphasise the varying shapes of cushion.
