Marenco
by Mario Marenco (1970)
for Arflex
The Marenco sofa features a revolutionary system to assemble seat and armrest cushions to the base. The cushions are simply put into a metal tubular frame which grants rigidity and resistance when the sofa is used. Its distinctive design makes this a true statement piece. It was awarded a Wallpaper Design Award in 2007 in the Best Reissues category.
