About this product
Architonic ID: 20111334
Year of Launch: 2020
As the name suggests, the Arpa collection is based on the harp, one of the most beautiful and captivating musical instruments. Unlike the meticulous work involved in manufacturing a harp, in designing this collection, rigorous paring down was applied, resolving each piece with the least possible number of elements. Arpa combines the stability of the outer orthogonal structure, with the comfort and softness of the inside cushion. The refined cords add elegance and delicacy to each element in the range, giving a sensation of lightness, as if the entire upholstering was floating, suspended by its structure. Designed to be timeless, Arpa is meant to become iconic, not only for aesthetic reasons, but also due to functionality and comfort.
