Mid Century Coronado Three Seater Sofa By Tobia & Afra Scarpa For B&B Italia In Brown Tan Leather Vintage Retro MCM

£995

An extremely comfortable and iconic Coronado sofa designed by Tobia Scarpa in the 1960s, made by B&B Italia.

This innovative sofa is a classic B&B Italia 1966 design symbolising relaxation, as the suspension system made from harmonic steel bands inserted into the structure of the back guarantees comfort.

The design and materials of the Coronado were revolutionary in 1966 combining industrial culture with an aesthetic that merged classic modern furniture features with modern living requirements.

The Coronado project is one of the foundation projects from the research of Afra and Tobia Scarpa. It emerged from the idea of matching an iron frame with the revolutionary technology of cold moulded polyurethane foam, which B&B Italia introduced to the furnishing sector.

The seat cushions have been newly upholstered in new tan matching leather.

Afra & Tobia Scarpa focused on the technical and aesthetic possibilities of materials in their designs and their pieces can be found in museums across the United States and Europe, including collections in MoMA and the Louvre Museum. They have collaborated with companies such as B&B Italia, San Lorenzo Silver, and Knoll International.

They have won a number of awards such as the Compasso d'Oro in 1969 and the International Forum Design in 1992. Their design work consists of architecture and everyday household items including, furniture, clothing, interior design, art glass. The couple were greatly influenced by Tobia’s father, Carlo Scarpa, a Venetian architect and designer.
