I was inspired by Eileen Gray's 'Lota' sofa, which she designed in 1924 for her client Lévy. This sofa, with strong horizontal lines originally featured two separate laquered side cupboards on wheels. Instead I made these of slices of plywood, showing the cut side.
The dimensions of the sides cupboards are 33x55x88, and the seat is 55/33x176. The sides slide out to give access to a drawer.

El sofá “Lota” de Eileen Gray me inspiré, que ella diseñó en 1924 para su cliente Lévy. Este sofá, con las lineas horizontales fuertes originalmente tenia armarios laterales con ruedas. En lugar hice éstos de las rebanadas del chapeado, demostrando el lado del corte.
Las dimensiones de los armarios de los lados son 33x55x88, y el asiento es 55/33x176. Los lados resbalan hacia fuera para hacia el acceso de la elasticidad a un cajón.
