Cradle Sofa, 2018 Original Manufacturer: Arflex > Designer: Neri and Hu > Country: Italy

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Cradle family is a seat system, composed by armchairs, sofas and small table; each of them was expressly thought for an exact collocation, both in terms of use and style.‎ 

Their characteristic is based on the structure: a classic triangular construction, that is repeated several times around the models, so that you can admire it from every point of view.‎ The leather belt, that rolls up around the rigid frame, covered by fabric, which contains soft cushions, is fixed between black painted aluminium fusion legs, creating in this way a cradle, that gives harmony with the contrasts of the materials.‎

The armchair and the sofa draw both from the rich lineage of Italian furniture, known for its sculptural and bold shapes, as well as from the modernist sensibility, that demands an honest structural expression.‎ Rather than conceal the frame and attempt to make the models levitate off the ground, the elegant crafted supporting elements become themselves the highlight of the model.‎
