Product description
A fine version of the iconic Maralunga sofa in original vintage fabric.
The overall impression of this three seater couch is really good. It will complementary any modern home interior.
"The Maralunga was designed by Milanese architect Vico Magistretti in 1973. Italian furniture manufacturer Cassina began production of the Maralunga in 1974. Magistretti’s key design innovation is the clever convertible back and arms, which allow the piece to have a low profile or be unfolded for a higher back and arms for more support as desired. The design evolved to its final form thanks to a famous punch. Cassina chief Cesare Cassina punched the back of the sofa prototype and actually broke it, forcinginspiring Magistretti to reimagine the design to boost durability and comfort. In 1979 the Maralunga won the Compass d’Oro design award and was added to the MoMa permanent collection."
