Was macht das Roche Bobois Mah Jong (Mahjong) so besonders gegenüber herkömmlichen Sofas?

Das Mah Jong ist ein rahmenloses Sitzsystem aus einzelnen Kissen und Polsterelementen, das 1971 von Hans Hopfer entworfen wurde. Es gibt keine feste Struktur — alle Module können frei im Raum angeordnet, gestapelt und immer wieder neu konfiguriert werden.

Wie viele Konfigurationen sind mit dem Mah Jong möglich?

Theoretisch unbegrenzt. Die einzelnen Module funktionieren als Sitzfläche, Rückenlehne, Armlehne oder Hocker und können beliebig kombiniert werden — von einer klassischen Sofalinie bis hin zu einer runden Gesprächsinsel.

Warum sind die Bezüge des Mah Jong so besonders?

Roche Bobois arbeitet regelmäßig mit renommierten Modehäusern wie Kenzo, Jean Paul Gaultier und Missoni zusammen, die exklusive Stoffe für das Mah Jong entwerfen. Jedes Kissen wird in Italien von Hand gesteppt und genäht.

Eignet sich das bodennahe Mah Jong für den Alltag mit Kindern?

Ja, die niedrige Sitzhöhe und das rahmenlose Konzept machen das Roche Bobois Mahjong besonders familienfreundlich. Es gibt keine harten Kanten, und die Module können flexibel als Spiellandschaft umfunktioniert werden.

Wie pflege ich die Polsterelemente des Mah Jong?

Die abnehmbaren Bezüge können je nach Stoffart professionell gereinigt werden. Regelmäßiges Aufschütteln und Drehen der Kissen sorgt für gleichmäßige Abnutzung und erhält die Polsterqualität langfristig.

Roche Bobois Mah Jong – Design & Comfort

Without a fixed frame, made only of loose cushions and upholstered elements: this is how Hans Hopfer designed the Mah Jong for Roche Bobois in 1971, and to this day it is regarded as one of the most radical sofa concepts in design history. The low-lying modules can be freely arranged in the room, stacked or combined – from an armchair to a chaise longue to a large lounge area. This piece is a three-seater upholstered in a colorful fabric, typical of the Mah Jong editions that Roche Bobois repeatedly reinterprets with fashion houses such as Kenzo, Jean Paul Gaultier and Missoni. Each cushion is hand-quilted and sewn in Italy.
