Need a hint with this object
I really need a hint modeling this object. I tried this with different objects, cylinder, pipe, curves, loft etc. but it ends up in a mess geometry!
Any great idea how i can solve this part of the sofa?

Edit:I did the extrude quickly I would tweek the mesh around the corners manualy so they did not pinch but I will leave that up to you

Could you show us what you mean SwertI think the trick is that there is a backside to the arm... so it would be slightly tricky to pull down from an extruded arc. You could start with a cube and extrude in the center and bottom to keep the back present.

Create the cube with the proper divisions
Extrude faces inward
Delete the floor and do a bit of cleanup with merging edges and split poly
Bevel the corners... at which point more cleanup is necessary, but it's a start.

Stwert has exactly seen the problem! Congrats! :-) The issue I had was not the object itself but the backside to the arm. This was creating some distortion in my geometry! I will try now to follow Stwert example and smoth finally the object and see what happens. I will report back with an image what I did.
Thank you all for your dedication in answering my post and supporting me! Much appreciated people.

Indeed, this would be easier, the only problem i have is now placing the right edge loops in order to be able to smooth the object maintaining the original shape and not destroying the geometry!

Wonderfull!! What kind of shader have you taken? A phong or blinn? I suppose this is a simple color and not a texture, right?
