- White “Saddle-Hide”
Description
Structure and proportions usher in a new architecture of the sofa. White seems to be a composite of perfectly balanced shapes. The repetitive overlapping of horizontal lines forms a highly distinctive aesthetic pattern that is further emphasized by the use of several different materials.
The sofa base can be upholstered in fabric, leather or saddle-hide upon which the seat backs, cushions and tray tops are placed to create a captivating interplay of shapes and alternating positive and negative spaces. The sofa sits on die-cast aluminum Pewter-colored feet, an exclusive design by Minotti Studio, that are set at a 45° angle to the sofa corners, lending added flair, even to larger-sized compositions. To make the White sofa even more welcoming, the padding in the cushions was enhanced with a deeper layer of goose down, making them luxuriously soft and creating a pleasant contrast to the sleek formality of the sofa base.
