The Baton Rouge sofa originates from a clear, compact and continuous volumetric gesture. A fully developed construction in which surfaces flow without perceptual interruption, asserting a solid and coherent presence within the space.
The system is articulated through monovolumetric platforms that define the layout with essential clarity, like bases capable of organizing the environment with measure and determination. The armrests, generous and structural, do not overlap the seat but represent its natural extension: sculptural continuations that broaden the surface and reinforce the perception of stability and comfort. The platform, taut and continuous, introduces a subtle dynamic, balancing mass and momentum in a calibrated equilibrium. The backrests, shaped by organic lines, settle naturally onto the bases. The softness of the upholstery engages in dialogue with the firmness of the compositional framework, generating a system of interdependent volumes in which each element contributes to the construction of the whole. At the rear connection point, the “shields” are introduced —trapezoidal elements that resolve the structural joint while introducing a measured geometric tension. Not mere details, but design features that express method and precision, embodying manufacturing excellence.
The horizontal bases form the structural plane upon which the entire system rests. In certain configurations, they extend beyond the perimeter of the upholstered volumes, becoming integrated surfaces. The seating thus expands into a broader spatial dimension, redefining the relationship between body, object and space. Baton Rouge emerges as a spatial device capable of shaping the interior landscape through the quiet strength of form. A project that invites permanence, slowness and a conscious relationship with the surrounding environment, its name evoking the continuous and profound flow of the Mississippi.
The Bachi armchair originated in the 1960s from a playful and free approach to design, characteristic of the most experimental phase of Italian design.
Titan is a dining table designed to complement the Basalt island or function as a standalone piece. The Negresco marble top, dark and veined, rests on asymmetrical legs.
In the name Bloomington, the verb “to bloom” resonates. Yet here, the blossoming is architectural—a construction of form in space.
The Bold sofa takes shape as a coherent evolution of architectural legacies into an even more essential, compact and radical presence, where design asserts itself as a habitable sculpture and a con
Catskill makes an immediate impact with its declared strength — a primordial energy that recalls the mountain region west of the Hudson Valley from which it takes its name.
The Cigno armchair, designed by Vittorio Varo in the late 1960s, represents one of the most refined expressions of the experimental phase of Italian design during that period.
Core emerges as an expression of the original nucleus of light and architecture, placing the structural heart at the center as a generative and identity-defining principle of space.
The Frame upholstered piece originates from a reflection on structure as the primary principle of design. Its very name is not a decorative reference, but a declarative statement
Gea, from the Greek word for “earth,” explores the relationship between light and matter through a language inspired by geological processes.
Joker is conceived as a tribute to the organic and sensorial imagery of the Seventies, reinterpreted through a contemporary language that unites memory and vision.
