Sofas, Avant-Après

Designer: Sergio Bicego
Year of production: 2017

Avant-Après is a contemporary seating system that reinterprets the living area as a dynamic space in constant evolution. Its defining feature is its ability to transform and adapt to different living requirements, offering versatile configurations that allow interiors to be reimagined with freedom and creativity.

The design stands out for its clean, elegant aesthetic, where formal rigour and visual lightness come together in a refined balance. Its innovative feature lies in the movable armrests and backrests, which can be detached and repositioned along the perimeter of the base with a simple gesture. This distinctive configuration makes it possible to change the sofa's layout, create new arrangements, enhance open spaces and accommodate different ways of using the living area.

The metal base, upholstered in fabric or leather and raised off the floor by metal feet, defines the profile of the seating system and enhances its sophisticated character. The design is completed by elegant side tables in Canaletto walnut veneer, available in two sizes.

Fully removable covers make Avant-Après a practical solution that combines compositional versatility, attention to detail and everyday convenience.
