Brühl Moule Two-seater, Fabric Beige/Grey

Brühl Moule – a transforming sofa for day and night

Putting your feet up in the evening, reading at the weekend, making up a bed when guests visit: the Moule is built for changes like these. Roland Meyer-Brühl designed it as a transforming sofa, and Brühl has offered it since 2003. On the two-seater, each seat is a swivel seat. Turn it 90 degrees and the armrest comes to the front and becomes a footrest. The backrest can then be set to any angle, right down to horizontal. According to Brühl, the bend in the backrest points to exactly this adjustability.

Moule two-seater in beige and grey fabric

This Moule two-seater is upholstered in beige and grey fabric and has a sleep function. During the day it offers two seats; when guests stay, the two swivel seats become a sleeping surface. The combination of beige and grey looks calm and works well with coloured cushions. The sofa suits living rooms, studies or guest rooms with no permanent space for a bed. It is one of a kind.

Seating comfort and space

Brühl upholsters the Moule on a base of sinuous springs, topped with layers of high-density foam and a soft layer of wadding. The seat holds its shape and feels soft on the surface. With a seat height of 42 cm, the sofa is at the lower end of the usual range. In seating mode, it needs 1.8 m of width and 90 cm of depth. With the seats swivelled and the rests lowered, a Moule two-seater becomes up to 60 cm wider and 44 cm deeper, according to the current dimension sheet.

Functions and additions

For the night, you turn both swivel seats into the lounge position and lower the backrests to horizontal; this creates the sleeping surface. You adjust the headrests separately, all by hand. The series also includes three-seaters, armchairs, footstools, longchairs and corner configurations. Brühl offers replacement covers and spare parts such as castors or glides through specialist retailers.

Caring for the fabric cover

Remove dust with the upholstery nozzle, and dab stains with water and a light-coloured cloth, without rubbing. Test any stain remover first on a hidden area. The Moule's covers are removable and attached to the frame with hook-and-loop strips. Washable Brühl fabrics can go on a gentle cycle at up to 30 degrees; all others should be dry-cleaned.

Why buy a pre-owned Brühl Moule?

The Moule has been in the range since 2003, and almost everything on it can be renewed. According to Brühl, the mechanisms can be replaced if they no longer move smoothly; the manufacturer also makes replacement covers that switch from fabric to leather. The padding can be replaced on every Brühl seating model. It is made in Bad Steben, where the family business has operated since 1948. This piece has been inspected in eight stations.
