Description from the seller
Cini Boeri’s Strips Sofa for Arflex – Fully reupholstered in red velvetIconic modular Strips sofa, designed by Cini Boeri (together with Laura Griziotti) in 1968-1972 for Arflex. A true classic of Italian design, awarded the Compasso d’Oro in 1979 and today on display in numerous design museums around the world. The Strips system revolutionized the concept of upholstery thanks to its fully removable quilted cover, inspired by a sleeping bag: practical, washable, and easily replaceable. The frame is metal and poplar plywood, with polyurethane foam padding of varying density that guarantees comfort and durability over time. This piece has been fully reupholstered in a premium red velvet of high quality, with an intense, vibrant red that gives the sofa a strong, contemporary, and scenographic character. The velvet enhances the model’s characteristic quilting, creating beautiful play of light and shadow, and makes the piece perfect for modern interiors, lofts, or spaces seeking a bold yet warm touch.
