Minotti - Connery modular sofa

Contemporary, with an architectural appeal that recalls the mid-century American spirit in the purity of lines, Connery is a seating system with an aesthetic-formal quality immediately perceptible. The skilful play of materials and the refined workmanship add a couture note to the design of the project. Extremely versatile seating system, both in terms of composition and in the choice and combination of materials.

With its geometric rigour, the base creates an original contrast with the softness of the seat, conceived as a single mattress cushion covered by light stitching. The backrest forms a unique volume with the armrest, with a slit to 45 then. in the corner.

The upholstered structural base, in addition to the fabric cover, can also be characterized by a cover with leather bands. The concept of high-end leather goods is also reflected in the headrests and elegant Flap "C" tops, harmoniously integrated into the seating elements, giving a lively rhythm to the compositions.

The structural base is raised from the ground by thin sheets of extruded aluminum painted glossy color Brandy, which give the sofa an airplane appearance, as well as enriching the aesthetics. Flap shelves reflect the band design of the structural base and equip the system offering a refined support solution with the possibility of containment.
