A compact, enveloping seat
Kartell introduces Asia as a sofa line by Piero Lissoni with a compact, enveloping seat and a refined, well-balanced design. The system comprises two and three-seater sofas and an armchair, and this page is the three-seater.

Soft cushions on a metal tray
The page says the cushions are designed for maximum comfort and are supported by an elegant metal tray. Kartell sets that precise line against the soft shapes of the cushions and calls the result a harmonious fusion with a completely original aesthetic appeal.
