Description from the seller

Divano Strips by Cini Boeri for Arflex – Completely reupholstered in red velvet
Iconic 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 exhibited 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 variable-density polyurethane foam padding that guarantees comfort and durability over time.
This piece has been completely reupholstered with a premium red velvet of high quality, a deep and vibrant red that gives the sofa a strong, contemporary and scenographic character. Velvet highlights the model’s signature quilting, creating beautiful plays of light and shadow, and makes the piece perfect for modern interiors, lofts, or spaces that want a touch of audacity and warmth.
