Drop-shaped design – is there room for geometric delicacy in the office?

In the world of modern offices, where sharp angles and bold lines dominate, it’s sometimes worth pausing for a moment to realize that not everything has to be angular, rigid, or excessively functional. Sometimes, it’s the quietest, most unassuming and subtle things that manage to shine amidst the noise of everyday life. Just like a drop of water – small, delicate, yet full of life and movement. That’s why our collection of soft seating now includes something truly special: IXU – a compact pouf shaped like a tilted droplet. Small, seemingly modest, yet bold enough not to need an entire square meter to be noticed and appreciated.

Comfort at work is the sum of small things.

This pouf knows its place – it's present, yet never imposes on the space. Like a quiet companion throughout the day, it appears when you seek support, and when you don’t – it calmly stays in the background, never in the way. Thanks to its lightweight wheels and subtle metal handle, IXU moves with grace, seamlessly blending into any interior style, regardless of its character.

Someone just dropped by for a meeting and you suddenly need “something to sit on”? In moments like these, IXU appears almost silently, effortlessly adapting to the spontaneous situation. When you're caught off guard by the sudden need for an extra seat, the pouf rolls into place— ready to provide comfort and complete the space without any unnecessary effort on your part.

The silhouette of a droplet – a subtle surprise with a thoughtfully crafted form.

IXU is neither conventionally round nor sharply angular. Its shape echoes the natural, organic motion of a falling droplet – soft, fluid, almost alive. This unexpected form gives the pouf a sense of personality, highlighting its unique and tranquil character. With its smooth, flowing silhouette, IXU harmonizes effortlessly with other elements of the interior, complementing the existing spatial arrangement.

A new chapter in the MARO soft furniture family

IXU is a new accent in our collection of soft furniture that transforms offices into more open and welcoming spaces for coworkers.

If you’re designing a space where every centimeter and flexibility matter, give the compact IXU pouf a chance – a droplet that, though small, can bring many positive changes to the interior. It’s these small elements that can completely change the perception of a workspace, making it more inviting and friendly.

IXU is a piece of furniture where you can pause for a moment, set something down, take a break, or exchange a few words during a quick meeting. It’s a pouf you can easily move with a simple push whenever the layout needs to change. It doesn’t take up much space, but its presence naturally complements and warms the environment, creating a place where everyone feels comfortable.

The IXU pouf is available in two finishing options:
