Bending his malleable tube of minty fluoride into a curve, only to see the dimples of the toothpaste push the outer aluminum casing, led to an idea. Perhaps the most influential furniture idea he\u2019d ever had.

Scroll through your Instagram feed and the chances are you\u2019ll see a Togo or two taking centre stage in dreamy mid-century or bohemian or industrial interiors. But how has this chunky, lumpy behemoth of a sofa taken the world by storm?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>A brief history of the Togo sofa<\/b><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_95379\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95379\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-95379\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.45.56-1012x1024.png\" alt=\"Light grey Togo sofa\" width=\"640\" height=\"648\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.45.56-1012x1024.png 1012w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.45.56-296x300.png 296w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.45.56-768x777.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.45.56.png 1296w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95379\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vintage 1970s Togo Sofa | Hutt Decor<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1973, the Togo was revealed to the world for the first time at the Salon des Arts M\u00e9nagers in Paris. Unlike anything ever seen before, this dimpled caterpillar-like sofa was a marvel. With no base and no traditional frame to speak of, Michael Ducaroy had created a couch that broke the mould.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, while the design was different, it was viewed as revolutionary. The Togo won the Rene-Gabriel award for creating an iconic piece of furniture that was affordable. Ligne Roset had complete faith in its designer, Michael Ducaroy and gave him free reign to develop modular pieces that complemented the original Togo iteration. Before long, couches, ottomans, loveseats, and chairs were available to the masses, giving homeowners in the 1970s the versatility they craved to configure their own living room seating arrangements.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Is the Togo sofa comfortable?<\/b><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_95380\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95380\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/sellers\/timeless-art\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-95380\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.20.00-1024x644.png\" alt=\"Monotone Togo Styling\" width=\"640\" height=\"403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.20.00-1024x644.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.20.00-300x189.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.20.00-768x483.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.20.00-1536x966.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-28-at-12.20.00-2048x1288.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95380\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/sellers\/timeless-art\">Vintage Leather Togo Sofa Ligne Roset, 3 Piece Set 1970s | Timeless Art<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Togo sofa is made entirely from polyurethane foam. Three densities of foam are used to provide ergonomic support and this is wrapped in polyester that is stitched to provide the legendary crumpled and folded look. With no base, the Togo hugs the ground and has a unique low seating height.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without a straight line in sight, the naturally curved profile and sunken seating provide ultimate comfort. Enveloping every joint and muscle, the Togo\u2019s ruffles seemingly mould to the body\u2019s shape while providing exceptional lumbar support.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s not often that a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/furniture\/seating\/sofas\"><b>vintage sofa<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is both comfortable and swoon-worthy. There\u2019s no form over function. It\u2019s the perfect combination of both. There\u2019s a reason why Ligne Roset has never stopped manufacturing the Togo since its emergence in 1973. At its 40th anniversary in 2013, the Togo sofa design in all its forms had racked up 1.2 million sales.
