Harmony, discretion, softness, and hospitality. There are endless references to describe this armchair designed by a line that follows itself gently, without ever stopping. Enveloping gently like a hug, it is not a simple armchair but a microcosm of comfort that welcomes and protects after an intense and long day.

Andrea Arena
Andrea Arena is an Italian product designer specializing in upholstered furniture, particularly sofas and seating. His design philosophy combines an artistic and musical background with a strong appreciation for craftsmanship, tailoring, comfort, and contemporary industrial production.
Arena developed a strong sense of rhythm, proportion, and precision through his early studies in percussion, graduating at the age of 17. He later pursued visual arts and industrial design, graduating from ISIA in Faenza in 2012. In 2013, he presented his work at the Salone del Mobile in Milan, marking the beginning of his professional career in furniture design.
Since then, Arena has focused on upholstered furniture, developing designs that combine industrial innovation with meticulous, sartorial attention to detail. His approach is expressed through the philosophy “forms follow feelings,” emphasizing the emotional and sensory qualities of furniture alongside its practical function.
Arena also explores sustainability through the idea that meaningful and emotionally engaging products are more likely to remain valued over time. His designs seek to transform comfort into a richer sensory experience, creating upholstered pieces that encourage relaxation, well-being, and a greater appreciation of everyday living.
