The Jasper Sofa Series: Timeless design, endless possibilities

The iconic Jasper Sofa and Jasper Curve Sofa by King Living masterfully blend quality, modularity and comfort, offering endless configuration possibilities for timeless interiors.


King Living, the renowned Australian furniture design house, has been elevating the Australian way of life for decades now, and the iconic Jasper Sofa series is a stunning embodiment of their exquisite design ethos. With its expansive volumes and clean architectural aesthetic, the award-winning sofa range seamlessly fuses softness with stability and simplicity with sophistication, yielding a comfortable and ubiquitously appealing object for any contemporary interior.

But its timeless character goes beyond the sofa’s universal elegance – this modular design boasts endless potential for easy reconfiguration as the needs, preferences or spatial requirement of the inhabitants evolve over time.

Versatile design that adapts with change

Jasper’s patented tool-free component connecting system allows seats, arms backs and shelves to be effortlessly reconfigured into multiple settings, including a luxuriously generous guest bed. Integrated storage solutions enhance the sofa’s functionality, while an unparalleled selection of finishes, colours and swatches, alongside three different cushion types, equip designers and end users with an unmatched choice when it comes to flexible customisation capabilities. Plus, the removable covers allow the look and feel of the sofa to be subtly updated – or completely transformed – as time goes by.

“We design our furniture to be flexible,” says David King, founder of King Living. “If you move to a larger living space, you don’t have to buy new furniture. King furniture will change and adapt to your lifestyle.”

Reliable foundations for flexible living

Jasper’s outstanding flexibility is anchored by innovative engineering, including the King Steel Frame and the Postureflex® Seating System.

Precision-engineered for outstanding durability, the premium frame provides a robust and versatile foundation for the sumptuous back cushions filled with Ultradown®. Inspired by the sophisticated steel suspension systems of some of Europe’s most luxurious cars, the Postureflex® Seating System further enhances the sofa’s outstanding support. Backed by a 25-year guarantee, the base offers a reliable and comfortable foundation for a lifetime of limitless reconfigurations.

Jasper Curve Sofa: The icon takes a new turn

To celebrate Jasper’s 20th anniversary, King Living has released its signature design in a new model. Defined by the same combination of sophistication, comfort and flexibility, the new Jasper Curve Sofa series introduces a more organic, rounded silhouette that augments the already impactful visual language of the original. With its highly-considered design, the new form is bound to become an undeniable centrepiece of any modern living space – particularly when the design can be appreciated from every angle.

“The curve module is particularly impactful when Jasper is arranged in the middle of an open-plan room,” David explains. “From the back, the beautiful contours really come alive and create gentle angles.”

While the new release introduces a fresh perspective on the original design, the Jasper Curve Sofa series has been thoughtfully engineered to seamlessly combine with Jasper’s existing modular components. As such, the Curve model can be customised with premium timber veneer shelves, carefully curated to match the refined quality of the upholstery. Available in Natural and Smoked Oak, American Walnut and Onyx, the refined shelving can be enhanced by the addition of integrated lighting and wireless charging.

Demonstrating outstanding attention to detail, these customisation options highlight the brand’s steadfast commitment to elevating the everyday with understated indulgence of exceptional comfort. At the same time, in ensuring that the Jasper Curva Sofa harmonises with the existing Jasper range, King Living also demonstrates their unwavering commitment to environmental responsibility.

Sustainability: The core of timeless design

This desire to offer versatile designs that are both universally beautiful and environmentally forward is expressed through all facets of the design and production process. King Living is committed to sustainable manufacturing practices; high-quality, responsibly sourced and recycled materials, as well as using the most innovative technologies that ensure every object is engineered for longevity and endurance.

“Because we have full control over our products, we have control of sustainability,” David says. “We can ensure that our products are sustainable, that the components we’re using are recyclable, and that the furniture will last.”

Plus, King Care® – a dedicated in-house offering by King Living – provides a range of convenient in-home maintenance options. With services including professional cleaning, recovery, refurbishment and repair, King Care® has been curated specifically to prolong the life of these outstanding designs, and decrease the amount of furniture waste ending up in landfill.

With a timeless design engineered to thrive in the changing reality of modern life, the Jasper Sofa and Jasper Curve Sofa series offer a lifetime of indulgent comfort and unmatched possibilities. With their premium construction, responsive, modular configuration, and a collection of responsibly manufactured materials, finishes and accessories, these enduring pieces elevate the everyday, celebrate the potential of flexible living – and redefine the very notion of sustainable luxury.
