Sofo

by Superstudio

Sofo is a seat to place in a row, like a train, or to stack to build solid, colorful mountains. It is simply a block made with an S—shaped cut from a cube of polyurethane, covered with fabric featuring two large stripes. The result of a very simple operation, without wasted material or thought. It presents itself as a compact, abstract, colorful object that communicates the joy of living, like things that arrive from another world.

SOFO I T02 by Superstudio 
RUMBLE Sofa by Gianni Pettena
.
For “The Art of Light”, the tenth anniversary of Elle Decor at Palazzo Bovara, Studio Giuliano Andrea dell’Uva, in collaboration with Metis Lighting, chose Poltronova. The project, curated by two of the most refined and innovative organisations on the Italian scene, presents SOFO, in the sofa and in the armchair version (Superstudio), the T02 coffee table (Superstudio) and the RUMBLE sofa (Gianni Pettena).
.
Disco Room.
Correctly catching its playful vein, Sofo (Superstudio) becomes the protagonist of a room dedicated to the private disco of an art collector. The block obtained by means of an “S” cut from a polyurethane cube, covered with a fabric furrowed by two large stripes, in two different versions, Rosancio and Verosa, can be lined up like a train or stacked like a tower. The outcome is always an abstract and colourful ambience that conveys joie de vivre and fun.
