Specifications
Roma measures 234.5 x 121.4 x 73.5 cm (W x D x H, code 0RMACL234SX).
Story
A classic project in name and form
Jonas Wagell conceived a family of sofas around the soft curve of a semicircle. The name Roma is classic as well, and the design recalls 1950s style through a careful, refined reinterpretation instead of a mannerist one.
Slender legs, wide seat
The sofa appears almost suspended on slender legs that hold up the wide, enveloping seat. Its stylistic lines recall the elegance of the past and balance comfort, hospitality and contemporary lightness.
