This design best exemplifies a design in motion. The DS 1064 has countless appearances and functions. All backrests are able to rotate around the seat, with just a light push. This means that the couch has no front or rear side. The backrest doesn’t just rotate; it also changes its shape while moving.
The biggest difficulty faced while designing was creating a tracking system that allowed for the reshaping of the couch while sliding the backrest along the edges of the seats. Just like a chain of a bicycle, the backrest can change shape due to its chained construction. The innovative backrest was designed by Hugo de Ruiter and patented in cooperation with de Sede. The modulated seating system has a sculptured design, inspired by nature. The couch derives a special playfulness from its lack of linear regularities.

Just as taking a bath with your partner allows you to relax and discuss the week’s events, a couch should offer the same comfort to unwind and to connect. Seeing each other means you won’t be seated next to each other, but across one another. Dozing off with a good book or immersing oneself into a movie are things that most people prefer to do sprawled out on the couch. With the backrests surrounding you, you can build a little nest, where you could read exciting stories to your children. The thoughtful design makes it possible to enjoy all of these moments on the same couch due to the surprisingly adjustable backrest.

Three pieces of Hugo de Ruiter's DS 1064 collection, (1064/18 measuring 60.5x60.5x31, 1064/20 measuring 66.5x94x31, 1064/30 measuring 80x67x31), were chosen to create a grand S-shaped seating area measuring approximately 203" long with all three pieces assembled.. Purchased in 2011, the cream colored leather and polished chrome finished legs have been kept in wonderful shape with minor wear and tear common with the age. See less
