AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"One module and one belt. That’s Curt!
Curt is certainly the most ambivalent sofasystem in the world. Anyone who can make a decision here is probably a bit odd. Curt creates lustful indecision. Who wants to make a decision when so many options are still waiting to be tried out?
Curt is probably also the simplest sofasystem in the world. There is only one modular form, a pouf. If you connect these invariable modules via the patent-pending connection system, sofas can be created in every imaginable configuration. Infinite possibilities. And can be changed at any time into any imaginable configuration.
Curt is probably also the most flexible sofasystem in the world. It is not only the combination of the modules that allows infinite variations. Curt‘s cover, can be dismantled into two parts, allowing a play of colours that has never been seen before."

Dimensions per module:
68 x 68 x 34 cm
Seating Height: 34 cm

7 modules in total + 1 cushion

Materials
Foam: Cold foam
Frame: Plywood
Straps: 80% polyester / 20% polypropylene
Hook: Aluminium
Cover fabric: one side 70% wool (100% recycled), 20% polyester, 5% polyamide, 5% polycarbonate & other side 100% polyester

The Connection
Two Hooks and a Strap, That’s it!
This is not a connection for eternity. Short term bonds are common practice, now even for sofas. If you had enough of one, the hook is easily released and ready for a new configuration. An adjustable strap with two simple hooks. This is Curts belt. There are three attachment loops on each side of the module and four on the back for hooking in. That‘s how fast Curt bonds again and again and again.

The Module
Hard to believe but true. This infinite variety is created by only one single modular form. A cuboid with a square base whose height is half the length of its sides. In addition 16 hidden connection loops, only visible when needed. So simple, so infinite.

The Cover
The cover of Curt is Also rather unusual. Two rectangles, formed into a U, which can be joined and divided with a full-length zipper. Removable, exchangeable, dividable, combinable and easy to clean. One red and one blue module become two red-blue modules.

Seller's Story

AMBIVALENZ has been innovating solutions for modern/mobile/flexible spaces since 2012. The design rationale for our furniture stems from demographic changes in cities that require new living concepts such as compact living and micro living. It helps that we love experimenting with how to create maximum function within a limited space. AMBIVALENZ develops and produces, among other items, foldable, stackable and printable interior objects for all sizes and types of rooms. Functionality and comfort flow from our number one priority, design. Our vision of great solutions for small spaces is reflected in our motto: AMBIVALENZ - strikingly discreet. If everything is as flat as our folding furniture, it does not help to lay it on thick. That is why we at AMBIVALENZ will remain as remarkably restrained as our products. in true minimalist style. Thus we let our furniture concepts speak on our behalf. In times where space is a luxury, modern living and working environments need to provide maximum functionality on minimal space – and that is what drives us: unfolded our furniture offers full comfort, unused, however it disappears unobtrusively and space saving on the wall. It transforms spaces, making small spaces big and large spaces even larger. Our products give you the freedom to be indecisive in a world of countless options and support us to live a flexible and mobile life. To make that work, we prove to be consistently uncompromising in design, comfort, quality and durability.
