Softbench Modular Sofa

Design Massimo Castagna, 2018

So much more than simple seating units: this system has movable backrests that can create dynamic, informal ambiences or modern, innovative hospitality projects.

This modular sofa introduces a concept of dynamic and multifunctional use, ideal for today’s lifestyles.
It consists of basic elements (4 seat units, 1 armrest, and 6 backrests) that can be freely arranged to create multiple seating systems and endless custom designs.
The mobile backrests are not anchored, but have an efficacious ballast mechanism that guarantees firm support. They provide freedom of movement and the same degree of comfort for people of different statures.
The depth of the elements allows the creation of double-faced seating, as well as its use as a chaise-longue or a comfortable bed.
The aesthetics are enhanced by matching the base, armrest, and cushion covers in a range of colours and patterns.
The seat cover is available in two versions: with wide or thick rectangular quilting.
A ‘destructured’ modular system that transports a new idea of comfort and hospitality into the living room and throughout the home.
The units of Softbench are large comfortable islands with the quilted cover available in two versions – wide or narrow. The covers accentuate the softness of the ensemble.
The mobile backrests are well-balanced and offer solid support for seating of different depths, all with equal comfort.
Softbench is young and unconventional: an unlimited choice of covers in different colors and textures can be mixed and matched in the bases, armrests and backrests.
Softbench can also be a large pouf that can be positioned in the center of the room, adjacent to more formal sofas or to add a special touch to walk-in wardrobes.
