Box Sofa, inspired by the 1950s' modernist movement, has the pure shape of a box. The inner face of the solid wood form offers refined comfort with crisp upholstery and classic tuft detailing. The four supporting legs appear to be impossibly slender, creating a stunning profile.

Istanbul-based, multidisciplinary design studio Autoban creates statement furniture to further the story told through their architecture and interiors. Each product is informed by a uniquely space-centric approach, blending wit with sophistication, and minimal forms with rich materials. Autoban products at once challenge convention, celebrate form and enhance function.
“We try to tell a story through the spaces we design and with the products we put in them. And the main plot of this story is always to offer a new experience for the user,” Autoban.
Solid wood is an expression of the life of a tree, grown for at least 30 years, and the weather patterns it experienced, the absorption of sunshine and minerals. The tree is imbued with meaning, and this meaning is transferred to the piece of furniture it becomes.
Our planks are cut in a way that honours the growth rings and grain, making them clearly visible.
AMERICAN BLACK WALNUT
Our American black walnut is from the midwestern United States. This is a prized hardwood with luxuriously figurative grain patterns and great strength. The walnut tree is relatively small, and the dark heartwood is surrounded by sap wood that is blond in colour.
Our American black walnut timber is available in a choice of oil finishes.

AMERICAN WHITE OAK
Our American white oak is from the eastern coast of the United States. Oak has long been used in furniture due to its great density, outstanding durability and simple, understated beauty. Its durability is compounded by the fact that it contains tannin acid, which naturally prevents rotting.
Our American white oak timber is available in a choice of oil finishes, or an oxidised finish.

EUROPEAN ASH
Our European Ash is from Portugal, Spain and France. European Ash is a hardwood that has long been prized by cabinetmakers due to its versatility and simple beauty. This dense timber has a coarse yet even texture, compressive strength, and an appealing straight grain. It varies in colour from a cream to pale tan colour and accepts stains and coatings more readily than other timbers.
Our European ash timber is available in a choice of oil, painted, or stained finishes.
