Luva Modular Sofa
Summary
The Luva Modular Sectional Sofa from Herman Miller has a distinct shape inspired by both boxing gloves and Japanese futons. Its tufted design adds comfort and refinement, creating a soft and sophisticated appearance. It features an innovative back that can be opened up or folded down to suit how you like to sit. When the back is expanded, it embraces you in a relaxed lounge position. When closed, it supports you in a more upright position. It can be added to other pieces in the Luva Collection for expanded comfort.

Sits like a glove
Take one look at the Luva Modular Sofa Group and you’ll see the possibilities of its distinct shape. The back lifts up or moves down based on how you prefer to sit, and the modular pieces can be connected or separated. With Luva, you don’t have to choose comfort over style—form and function are truly one in this design. It’s incredibly versatile and visually irresistible.
Inspired shape, versatile form
Designer Gabriel Tan designed Luva—Portuguese for “glove”—at his studio in Porto. He took inspiration from the shape of boxing gloves, with their soft grip and padded support, and Japanese futons—or Shikibuton—and their delicate rolled tops that provide as much function as visual interest. The result is a soft and billowy form, grounded with natural textiles and organic lines.
Best of both worlds
From relaxed to supported and back again, the Luva Modular Sofa Group is truly dual purpose. Much like the glove it emulates, Luva can expand into an open back, allowing a relaxed lounge posture. With a closed “fist,” it becomes a more supported seat, serving as a place to chat and work. Simultaneously sophisticated and comfortable, it’s the best of both worlds.
Comfortably modular
Luva is available in several configurations, from an armchair and chaise to a sofa or sectional. A detachable ottoman adds to the variety and unique configurations. Thanks to a hidden bar near the bottom of the seat, these pieces can be ganged together easily, or moved apart as desired—all without changing the look and feel of the soft support Luva provides.
Gabriel Tan
“Beauty is a function” says Porto-based designer Gabriel Tan, who describes his Luva Modular Sofa Group as equally comfortable and visually pleasing. Alongside Cyclade Tables, Luva is Tan’s first collaboration with Herman Miller.
