straddle
A sofa consisting of a steel frame and cushions.
Like an inverted Y, the armrest and back cushions are split down the middle and sandwiched in place by the two-layered frame, in effect straddling it. In addition to the armchairs, two-seaters, three-seaters, and ottomans are available. A plump silhouette and wrinkled stitching give the cushions a soft, voluminous look, while the frame by contrast is kept sharp and linear.
