‘HARPER’ SOFA

by Antonio Citterio, for Flexform

‘Every sofa sets the scene for a medley of different uses,’ says Antonio Citterio. And he should know, having designed dozens of models for Italian brand Flexform over the last 40 years. His latest, the ‘Harper’, named after the harp, is designed as a delicate and welcoming sofa, ‘like a lullaby created by the sophisticated sound of the stringed instrument’. It has a distinctive console armrest, which is available in two widths and 13 colours, including dark brown, olive and Bulgarian red. Set on a wooden frame clad in polyurethane foam padding, the seat cushions are filled with goose down and inserts in crush-proof material, while upholstery is available in hundreds of exclusive fabrics (including linen, cashmere and velvet) and leathers. We’re particularly fond of the grosgrain piping detail, but you could also pick your own favourite fabric to create a completely unique sofa.
