Story

A refrain turned into a sofa

The product page says Get Back pays homage to the Beatles and takes its name from the refrain "Get back, get back, get back to where you once belonged". It calls the text playfully schematic for a project that stands for a return to comfort, to a welcoming tailor-made space. The page places it after Let It Be and Come Together, which Ludovica Serafini and Roberto Palomba designed for Poltrona Frau in 2017 and 2018.

Light on its feet

According to the page, the suspended frame, supported by simple aluminium feet, gives a very light overall effect, with soft cushions and chaise elements of unexpected depth on top. The seat and backrest are described as merging into a single light element decorated with thin piping.
