Pitti: design and comfort for a sofa with clean shapes
Born from the idea of integrating the original and eccentric shapes to the well-known elegance that marks Italia Lounge, Pitti confirms its extraordinary ability to attract and intrigue.
Presented as a preview during the sixtieth edition of the Salone del Mobile of Milan, it has immediately caught the attention of the visitors, boldly conquering them.
Its name pays homage to one of the most famous Renaissance buildings of Florence, that has become the symbol of the Italian fashion since, in 1952, the creations of the most prestigious Italian haute couture began to walk. The attention to details, the skill and the knowledge of the artisans were able to change forever the fashion world, enabling Italy to emerge, and interrupting the French monopoly. Moreover, the geometrical figures – simple but strict – that characterize the structure and the plan of the building, recall the shapes of Pitti.
Big generous shapes, cushions in soft feather and polyester fibre supported by triangular moving backrests, metal feet in glossy Carbon finish: these are all characteristics that distinguish Pitti and place it in a dimension of adaptability of use, further encouraged by the possibility to freely combine leather and fabric. People can create combinations that are fine, elegant, but also unexpected and surprising, by following its own aesthetic and the current trends.
It is suitable for interesting games of shapes thanks to the polyhedrality of its elements, which allows each time to easily reorganize spaces by creating new compositions, following everyone’s purpose and needs. So, also because of the double depth of its units, elements with different functions can be made: from chaise longue to vis à vis sofa. In the end, its big seat cushions, and the moving triangular backrest, highly ergonomic thanks to the elastic straps, make it perfect for huge living spaces and more.
