Settebello Modular Sofa
Settebello is conceived as the seventh chapter of a design journey with Ghidini 1961: a natural, almost inevitable evolution.
The name conveys this continuity, but also an idea of luck and harmony. Seven becomes sign, rhythm, measure. A system of elements that can be freely composed in space, giving life to fluid, welcoming configurations.
The shapes are soft, generous, conceived for comfort and interaction. The modules come together and bend, creating ever-changing geometries, never rigid, able to adapt to interiors and to everyday gestures.
Settebello is a sofa that invites you to linger, to change position, to share. A domestic landscape in constant transformation, where design meets use and becomes experience.
The seats are wide and soft, designed to embrace and support the natural movement of the body. The backrests and cushions accompany everyday use with ease, creating a balance between comfort and structure.
Settebello is a system in evolution: a sofa that adapts, transforms, and defines the inhabited space.
Beyond the rules of geometry. Settebello breaks the monotony of orthogonal forms. Its generous modules, defined by fascinating trapezoidal cuts and sculptural peninsulas, allow the living space to be designed with unprecedented freedom.
It is an architectural island that floats in space, becoming the visual and relational focal point of the room.
The luxury of informality. The rigor of the metal bases and the decisive geometries of the modules soften into the extraordinary softness of the seats, articulated by a distinctive horizontal banded quilting.
