The Base Mod Couch is a double-sided modular soft seating piece designed for open learning spaces, libraries, common areas and collaborative zones. Its central back support allows groups to sit comfortably on both sides simultaneously, making it well suited to peer-to-peer learning, group discussion and informal social interaction throughout the school day.
The Base Mod Couch is designed for schools that want flexible, practical soft seating capable of supporting two groups at once. Its central upholstered back runs through the middle of the unit, providing support for users seated on either side. This makes it particularly effective in open plan classrooms, learning hubs, libraries and common areas where students and staff gather informally throughout the day.
Multiple units can be arranged in a variety of configurations, from linear runs through open spaces to angled groupings that define zones within a larger environment. The square 1200 mm footprint keeps the couch compact enough to work within flexible layouts while providing generous seating space on both sides.
A high-density foam seat and back support comfortable sitting during extended use. Three height options allow schools to match the couch to the intended age group and setting. Optional braked castors make it easy to reposition as teaching and learning needs change. A wide selection of vinyls and textiles supports colour coordination with the wider learning space.
