Morphology

supersectional = sectional (semi-transparent) = super + section + al

The prefix 'super-' suggests something large or oversized, but the specific application to a sofa may not be immediately clear.

Etymology

Supersectional starts with super ('above' or 'very') and ends with section ('part' or 'piece'). So it paints a picture of a very large sofa made of joined parts, which is why it means an extra-big sectional couch.
