A playful postmodern design from 1974. the Wilkes Modular Sofa is composed of upholstered panels that create the delightful illusion that the design is floating on air. Its beautifully smooth contours. created by the bold. rounded-edge cushions. give the Wilkes a fluid. uniform appearance. This sought-after design icon—also known by its nickname. Chiclet—is now back in production. made in the USA by Herman MIller and available in a rainbow of colors.
The Wilkes Modular Sofa is created with an innovative injection foam molding technique that creates smooth shapes with no waste of materials. A surprising amount of comfort is provided by the sofa’s independent flex. created by steel brackets that join the seat and the back. The fabric is made from 63% wool. 21% polyester and 16% nylon. Both the sofa’s designer. Ray Wilkes. and its manufacturer. Herman Miller. are represented in MoMA’s collection. Arrives fully assembled. To clean. use a mild. water-free dry cleaning solvent.
