Moncloud

Moncloud - Sofa by Cassina

Cassina > Sofa

Designed by Patricia Urquiola, Moncloud is an extremely elegant, versatile sofa, studied to rethink upholstered furniture design with an eye to circularity. The wood structure lifts the upholstered parts off the floor, lending the entire sofa the lightness and softness of a cloud. The fabric upholstery envelops the contours of the sofa, creating a distinctive fold that enhances the beauty of its silhouette. The backrest cushions, instead, are defined by centre stitching that lends a unique, sophisticated aesthetic signature to each module.
