The Flaneur Sofa is the result of GamFratesi’s process of reimagi-
ning the nineteenth-century English roll-arm sofa, known for its un-
dulating profile, taut upholstery, deep seats and low rolled arms, for
today’s audiences. Adding a timeless Scandinavian simplicity to this
enduring typology with straighter lines and clearer geometry, com-
bined with the Italian aesthetic evident in its indulgent seat, they
have created a modular sofa that invites complete relaxation in any
setting, in line with the sense of carefree curiosity that its name evo-
kes.
The traditional ‘roll arm’, an elegant detail uncommon in modular
sofas, is given a simplified, modern expression, and its archetypical
curves replaced with more minimal lines. A slender wooden frame
atop metal legs is filled with generous, soft cushions, curved for a
snug fit around the armrest, facilitating both seated and reclined
positions.
Designed around an array of modules, the Flaneur Sofa reflects the
growing demand for modular furniture in increasingly dynamic inte-
rior spaces, without compromising on appearance or comfort.
