Natural materials move in and complement the ruling minimalism in the interior design. The Sense sofa from Cane-line elements is designed by Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen in a warm, glowing rattan material with a hint of retro, which softens the atmosphere and surfaces in any interior decoration.
The Cane-line rattan collection
The designers have imagined a bare, white room with little furniture in a minimalistic style. Then they moved on to think about how to create furniture that provides warmth and glow and a natural dynamic for the room as a whole. The result is a unique collection of modern natural rattan furniture – like the Sense and Nest sofa, Nest and Curve lounge chairs, Spin and Blend dining chair – and the inspiring accessories, such as Nest footstool, Climb ladder and Sweep basket etc.
Sense sofa
By playing with and challenging their own conceptions of the shape of the material Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen came up with Sense, who´s name derives from the sofa’s rounded shape and the materials cane-like fashion and elegant and open back construction. The original idea was to create a sofa with outstanding and exceptional comfort which takes advantage of the rattan material as an exceptionally flexible and pliable material, and in turn, allows for open and shaped curves and constructions.
The result is an elegant and modern sofa, which expresses elegance and aesthetics from all angles express elegance and a pleasant and transparent look for the eye. Sense has a unique look that makes the sofa beautiful as for instance a room divider or simply just the natural centre of any room. Sense is flexible and be utilized as a traditional sofa, a Turkish Divan and even and extra bed – it is entirely up to you.

The material
Rattan is often confused with bamboo but it differs in that it has a trunk with a core, while bamboo is hollow. This makes rattan a very sturdy material, which can be fashioned into almost all shapes following processing with cooking and oiling.
