In the world of design, certain sofas go beyond their basic function to become true statements. At Ligne Roset, two models perfectly embody two distinct visions of comfort and style: the iconic Togo and the sculptural Ploum. Two icons, two eras, two experiences—one question remains: which one should you choose?
Designed in 1973 by Michel Ducaroy, the Togo revolutionized the codes of the traditional sofa. With no rigid frame and made entirely of foam in varying densities, it is defined by its signature folds and low, almost floor-level silhouette.
More than just a sofa, the Togo represents a state of mind. It invites you to sink in, stretch out, and live without constraint. It encourages slowing down and letting go, offering a relaxed, informal posture. Its aesthetic—both bold and inviting—has endured across decades without ever losing its modern appeal.

Nearly forty years later, designers Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec—two of the leading figures of contemporary design—offer a new interpretation of the modern sofa with the Ploum.
The comfort of the Ploum is a true experience. With its organic lines and generous form, it evokes something free-flowing and almost alive. Its secret lies in a subtle combination of ultra-soft foam and stretch fabric, which naturally adapts to the body and immediately invites relaxation.
You don’t simply sit on it—you settle into it. From the very first moment, the sensation is immediate, almost weightless, as if you are being gently held, suspended within a cocoon.
Beyond comfort, the choice is also a visual one.
The Togo stands out through its strong character. Its signature folds, low profile, and 1970s heritage make it an instantly recognizable piece. It fits seamlessly into interiors with a strong identity, balancing revisited vintage influences and bold minimalism.
The Ploum, on the other hand, embraces fluidity. Its soft curves and subtle asymmetry engage in a dialogue with contemporary spaces. It structures the room while maintaining a light, almost organic visual presence.

Both models are available in multiple formats, allowing them to adapt to different spaces and uses.
The Togo, however, offers the most extensive range: armchair, 2- or 3-seater sofa (soon 4-seater), corner module, ottoman, and even a children’s version, the Mini Togo. This high level of modularity allows for highly flexible, almost architectural compositions.
The Ploum is also available in several sizes and backrest heights, but follows a more unified and sculptural approach, where each piece is designed as an autonomous volume.

With its low profile, the Togo visually opens up the room. It is particularly well suited to large spaces or lounge-style layouts, where a relaxed and open atmosphere is desired.
The Ploum, by contrast, is more voluminous and creates a true island of comfort. It structures the living room and becomes a natural focal point, making it ideal for everyday or family use.
When comparing the Togo and the Ploum, fabric selection reveals two very different design philosophies.
The Togo stands out for its almost limitless freedom of customization: with over 700 available coverings, it offers exceptional versatility, from deep velvet to textured fabrics, as well as neutral or bold color palettes.
The Ploum, on the other hand, follows a more technical and specific logic. Its unique comfort relies heavily on stretch fabrics designed to accommodate its generous shapes and follow the body’s natural movement. As a result, the selection is more limited, but highly refined—each upholstery is chosen for its elasticity, durability, and long-term performance.
Both the Togo and the Ploum belong to the high-end segment, in line with Ligne Roset’s standards of excellence.
The Togo, thanks to its design and modularity, offers a degree of budget flexibility depending on the chosen configuration.
The Ploum, however, generally sits at a higher price point, due to its manufacturing complexity, generous proportions, and technical materials.
In both cases, these pieces represent a long-term investment, both in terms of build quality and enduring aesthetic value.

Between the Togo and the Ploum, there is no right or wrong choice—only two different visions of design and comfort.
Choose the Togo if you are drawn to iconic pieces, low seating, and interiors with strong character.
Opt for the Ploum if you prioritize absolute comfort, versatility, and a more contemporary aesthetic.
