blue paper softseating | folding paper lounger
softseating lounger fans into a generous pouf for lying down or sitting. Its sculptural quality is striking as an individual seating piece or as part of a larger, grouped installation. Made from paper or textile, the honeycomb geometry grants the modest materials surprising strength—easily supporting people and four-legged friends.
brown and blue paper furniture is made from wood harvested from FSC® Certified (FSC® C158591) responsible sources and coated with a non-toxic fire retardant.

material
brown and blue paper furniture is made from wood harvested from FSC® Certified (FSC® C158591) responsible resources and is and coated with a non-toxic fire retardant.
The textile is a durable, nonwoven polyethylene that is water- and tear-resistant. The white version of the textile is translucent and the aluminum version is micro-coated with the actual metal, creating a lively range of reflected light and shadow. Both materials are 100% recyclable.
patina
With time and use, the top surface softens and folds into a unique, organic pattern. Each facet catches light in a beautiful, variegated way, while the honeycomb below remains strong and intact.

Stephanie Forsythe
Canada
Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen cofounded molo in 2003 and are best known for sharing their ideas and products for flexible, sustainable spacemaking around the world. Over the past three decades, the partners have worked together and led the Vancouver-based studio from humble beginnings to international recognition and acclaim. Along the way, they have assembled a dedicated team and a family of specialized manufacturers that support them in this endeavour. The partners work together to design all of molo’s products and projects, which range in size from a tea set to a museum. Forsythe and MacAllen met in 1994 while studying Architecture at Dalhousie University. Between 1994 and 2003, they worked together on several award-winning architectural projects and competition proposals. These projects included foundational investigations into materials, flexibility, and sustainable space making. The partners built molo around these early explorations and ideas, and they continue to drive the spirit behind the studio. Together, they designed and developed the iconic soft collection, a sculptural line of innovative, flexible space partitions, furniture, and lighting elements made from paper and textile. The award-winning soft collection is well known for its poetic beauty and pragmatic design. It experiences steady, iterative development as Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen continue their experiential and technical investigations, or as a sensitivity to nature and how the products interact with light and shadow inspires new finishes or colours. Stephanie Forsythe, Todd MacAllen, and molo hold over thirty-five patents and thirty design registrations. They have received numerous international design and architecture awards, including the prestigious Danish INDEX Award for Design to Improve Life for softwall, the Architectural Review AR + D Award for Colorado House, 2010 Emerging Voices Award from The Architectural League of New York and Grand Prize in the Aomori Northern Housing Competition. Their products have been acquired by many museum and gallery collections, including the New York Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), the Chicago Art Institute, Die Neue Sammlung, and the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum.
