by Gijs Papavoine from Montis
axel 5 seat sofa
Design Gijs Papavoine, 2005
Upholstery, steel or wood legs
Made in Holland by Montis
The sled legs under the delicately cut cubist surrounds of the Axel sofa are almost hidden from view, as a result of which the couch seems to have no connection with the floor. The materials are made of the best quality. The height of the seat is chosen quite high in order to simplify standing up. Axel has more than 28 possible combinations as well as the large and small ottomans. Axel is comfortable with an inviting and cozy appearance.
Gijs Papavoine studied at the institute of technology and Eindhoven Academy for Industrial Design in the product Design department. Gijs was employed as a Product Manager at Montis until 1990. In this capacity, he was jointly responsible for Montis' design philosophy. In 1990, Gijs was promoted to dedicated designer of Montis.
Axel is offered in a variety of fabrics and leathers with your choice of leg options. Sofa does not include extra throw cushions shown in photos. Please note: Axel sofas specified in leather will have extra visible seams.

Gijs Papavoine
Gijs started his career with Montis in the Product Development department and shared responsibility for design philosophy, leaving a clear mark on the company. Papavoine’s style is characterized by a clear, graceful and refined interplay of lines with a strong sense of simplicity.
Montis stands out with unique color combinations and the use of various leathers. Montis sets itself apart from its competitors and achieves high comfort by often applying techniques that came to be regarded as distinctly Dutch.
