Graphic Sofa

Graphic

Graphic is a sofa designed for reception areas and living rooms. The form is simple and geometric, without ornament.

The frame is made of reforestation woods, with Lyptus in the structural parts and Pinus in the other parts. The seat holds foam of 30 density, and the feet are carbon steel painted with automotive paint. The cover is natural fabric. The gap between the seat and the floor makes cleaning easier.
