Story
Sofa codes in the Bohemian sheet
The Bohemian data sheet gives the sofa its own page, separate from the armchairs and chaise longue. It lists the 2-seater major (018) and the 3-seater (003), then the 230 and 280 versions without back cushions (0VU and 0VZ), so the same body is offered with or without its back cushions.
Patricia Urquiola, 2008
The product page credits the sofa to Patricia Urquiola with the year 2008. The designer text on that page adds that she worked with Vico Magistretti and was Head of Design for Lissoni Associati before opening her own studio in 2001.
