Toast Tool Free Assembly Sofa

Toast

Toast is a modular sofa designed for tool-free assembly. The base consists of I-shaped and L-shaped solid wood blocks with grooves that are joined by plugging. The backrest and seat cushions are separate modules inserted into the grooves of the base. Stainless steel fittings connect the modules and allow various combinations. The solid wood base uses mortise and tenon joints for strength and is finished with environmentally friendly wood wax oil. Damaged parts can be replaced individually, which extends the service life of the sofa and reduces furniture waste.

Toast Tool Free Assembly Sofa by Tian Chen&Hao Wu has been highlighted as an exceptional representation of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. Toast Tool Free Assembly Sofa was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in Furniture Design in 2024. The A' Furniture Design Award is an international, meritocratic, just and fair design recognition program which celebrates excellent design of chairs, tables, sofas, beds, cabinets, shelves, desks, wardrobes and more.
