The Voxel sofa system by Danish Architecture studio BIG was informed by its architecture projects, as well as video game Minecraft and the works of architect Mies van der Rohe.
The sofa's name and design derive from the concept of a three-dimensional pixel, known as a voxel.
The design was created to be adaptable and consists of four main parts that can be interchanged and assembled in various ways.
