Story

A name from mythology

Flexform says the mythology-inspired name serves to underscore the delicately graceful lines of the sofa. Its understated proportions are meant to let it fit effortlessly in any setting.

Lighter back, retro charm

The page credits a sculpted opening above the seat with giving the enveloping back a lighter look, and describes a vaguely retro charm that is carried through to the base.
