Design Inspiration

The Ploum Settee emerged from the Bouroullec brothers’ extensive research into comfort, inspired by the ripe, plump contours of a plum—reflected in its name, “Ploum,” the French word for plum. Launched by Ligne Roset, this sofa combines a structured steel base with a voluminous, free-flowing shape, embodying a modern take on mid-century organic design. At Vintara Design, we’ve curated this piece to fuse historical richness with contemporary living, offering a sofa that’s both a functional retreat and a sculptural centerpiece.

How to Style Your Ploum Settee

Place the Ploum Settee as a bold focal point in your living room—pair it with a sleek coffee table for a minimalist look or vibrant cushions for a playful accent. Its organic curves soften angular spaces, making it ideal for open-plan homes or cozy corners. Choose a bright blue Moby knit for a pop of color or a neutral grey for timeless sophistication—this sofa adapts effortlessly to mid-century modern, Scandinavian, or eclectic interiors, enhancing any space with its inviting form.

Care Instructions

Maintain its plush appeal by brushing the quilted fabric with a soft brush to remove dust. For spills, use a damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals. The cover is removable by an upholsterer for professional cleaning. Store in a dry, shaded area to preserve the fabric’s elasticity and color vibrancy.
