Story
A personal area in a larger space
The sofa offers a way to make a personal area inside a larger space. Its simple shapes enclose a quite private seat, for use at home or in a public space.
Cover materials
The sofa carries a geometrically inspired Jacquard that explores the distorted imagery of a photograph. A wool cloth and a classic Diesel stonewashed linen are further cover materials.
