Tortello
Sofa
Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby
“Sculptural in form, the Tortello
sofa and armchair are generous
in proportion and extremely
soft, giving ultimate comfort.
The informal shape offers
different seating positions and
makes Tortello a centrepiece.”
The new Tortello seat present
itself a monolithic sofa that
amuses with its generous,
soft and cosy shapes. The
supporting structure, a sort of
tray with a trapezoidal section
base, is rotationally moulded
from recycled polyethylene.
It is then completed by an
elastomer mattress on which
the foamed upper element
is laid, a soft fabric-covered
volume characterised by a
peculiar profile thanks to a
‘pinched’ stitching.
