Code Burnout 9 Seater Modular Sofa - Graphic Fabric

The Code Burnout is a 9-seater modular sofa upholstered in a graphic monochrome fabric printed with brushstroke calligraphy across each module. The low-profile form measures 440cm wide by 160cm deep and comprises individual modules that can be reconfigured or purchased separately, allowing layouts to adapt to different room shapes and seating needs.

Designed for open-plan living rooms, media rooms and commercial lounge areas where seating arrangements need to accommodate multiple users, the modular configuration shown here includes a 3-seater central section with two corner units and two ottoman-style footrests. Each module sits independently on castors hidden beneath the base, making rearrangement possible without lifting. The 80cm overall height includes low 45cm seat height and 35cm backrest, creating a reclined lounge posture rather than upright dining or desk seating.

The fabric covers are removable via concealed zips on each module, allowing the printed graphic covers to be swapped for solid-colour alternatives or cleaned separately from the sofa structure. The base fabric beneath the printed covers is available in six solid tones (ivory, grey, charcoal, navy, terracotta, sage), meaning the sofa can be styled with or without the graphic upholstery depending on interior preference. The fabric carries a 100,000 Martindale abrasion rating and includes water-repellent and anti-claw treatment, making it suitable for high-use environments and homes with pets.

The printed graphic shows gestural black brushstrokes, red accent marks and line-drawing symbols across an off-white ground, creating an abstract expressionist pattern that differs across each module due to the scale of the print. The low-slung form and monochrome palette pair with mid-century, industrial and gallery-style interiors where art-led furniture is a priority.

Can the modules be purchased separately?

Yes. Each module (corner units, central sections, ottomans) can be purchased individually, allowing you to build a custom configuration or replace a single module without buying the full 9-seater set.

Are the covers machine washable?

The covers are removable via concealed zips and can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Nomu recommends professional fabric cleaning for heavy soiling rather than machine washing, as the fabric includes water-repellent and anti-claw treatments that may be affected by domestic washing machines.

What is the Martindale rating?

The fabric is tested to 100,000 Martindale cycles, a measure of abrasion resistance. Domestic upholstery typically requires 20,000-30,000 cycles; contract/commercial upholstery is rated above 40,000. At 100,000 cycles this fabric is suitable for heavy-use environments including rental properties, offices and hospitality.

Can the sofa be reconfigured after assembly?

Yes. Each module sits on castors hidden beneath the base, allowing the layout to be rearranged without lifting. The modules are not permanently fixed together, so the configuration can be changed to suit different room layouts.
