Bad Steben, Germany

Kati Meyer-Brühl of Brühl & Sippold—a family-run furniture company— creates the Magnolia Collection that includes armchairs, sofas, and corner elements linked in a fresh and extraordinary yet familiar form with special features such as the intricate and decorative quilting of the covers which demonstrate a high level of craftsmanship.

The Magnolia Collection’s design and sustainable concept recently won a 2022 Green Good Design Award from The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.

The design’s evocative, emotional, and aesthetic value is created through its inviting and organic contours, as well as the use of only superior and sustainable materials.

The Magnolia Collection leads with its green credentials, being completely sustainable in both production and materials, as well as being a highly desirable piece, which is a prerequisite for the long lifecycle of furniture.

A soft, U-shape backrest snugly encloses the rounded seat base.

Magnolia’s outside is divided into vertical segments and displays a friendly, memorable round shape, while the inside is structured and subdivided by an additional horizontal quilted seam.

Thanks to its premium durable upholstery, the Magnolia Collection boasts long-lasting and very comfortable seating.

Regardless of their generous size, all of the magnolia’s elements are surprisingly lightweight meaning that the furniture can be transported and moved around with ease.

The design looks great as a soloist or in an ensemble with other furniture.

The Magnolia Collection is adaptable to its surroundings and can be integrated seamlessly into a new context.

Despite appearing visually complex, the quilted cover can be removed, allowing for an easy aesthetic update and the extension of the furniture’s lifespan.
