Molteni – Marteen modular sofa

The Marteen is a multifunctional seating and storage system introducing harmony with perfectly balanced volumes, in an alternation of solids and voids.

A new way of experiencing conviviality that satisfies the most dynamic interpretations of space, in full awareness of the continuous evolution taking place in the world of living.

“Marteen is much more than the sum of its parts; it is modularity that meets dynamism. Made up of upholstered seating modules, this new range can be offered in infinite arrangements - from single seats such as poufs, to the classic 2-seater or islands with 360° seating that become the centrepiece of the living area.”
- Vincent Van Duysen

The infinite possibilities of the Marteen sofa are revealed in the creation of versatile compositions - from the classic corner solution to the most modern island solutions - thanks to the combination of the various elements, including seats and storage units.

Destined to become a classic, the Marteen is characterised by a strong modern personality that elegantly responds to its intended function. Back cushions that can be arranged freely on the seat provide additional comfort and allow for different relaxing positions. The system is kept suspended from the ground by a pewter-coloured blade foot, ensuring greater momentum in compositions.

The armrest element defines the design and gives rhythm to the structure, acting both as a support point and as a container with hidden compartments for storing objects. The upper part, also in eucalyptus wood or the new thermo oak wood, contrasts with the lower part in matt copper lacquer.

Vincent Van Duysen

Vincent Van Duysen was born in 1962, in Lokeren, Belgium and graduated in architecture from the Higher Institute of Architecture Sint-Lucas, in Ghent. From 1986 to 1989 he worked in Milan and Brussels. He opened his own studio in Antwerp, in 1990 focusing on architecture and interior design. The relationship between interior design and architecture in his work is profound. Furnishings and accessories are designed with an architectural perspective that is not limited by form, but was expressed with a careful perception of interior space and its relationship to the exterior architecture. By interpreting architecture and redefining its proportions, Van Duysen creates objects of great purity and simplicity that still retain a concrete character and solid form.

During his career, Van Duysen has received multiple awards among which the Flemish Culture Prize for Design, Belgian Designer of the Year and the Henry van de Velde Lifetime Achievement Award, and an EDIDA for Best Interior Designer of the Year. In 2021, the Winery VV has also been appointed and shortlisted for the Mies Van Der Rohe Award. His name was also been included in the AD100 survey by the Architectural Digest network and Elle Decor A-List multiple times.

In 2016, Van Duysen was appointed as creative director of Italian brands Molteni&C and Dada, reshaping their global image by designing flagship stores, exhibition stands and a series of new products. From 2018 to May 2020, he covered the role of art director at Sahco for Kvadrat, after which he has been collaborating as a senior designer.

Molteni

Angelo Molteni, born in 1912, began his entrepreneurial activity in Giussano, now the province of Monza and Brianza, the furniture district. His workshop becomes, in a short time, synonymous with high quality product. The 60s began in the best way, in fact Angelo Molteni is in the founding committee of the first Salone del Mobile in Milan, which opened on 24 September 1961 with great success. This is the decade of the revolution: in a few months, the production is converted from classic to modern, to create well-designed furniture, designed for the series. Luca Meda, a student of the Ulm School, is the man of the revolution, his Iride containers presented at the Salone del Mobile in 1968. From the 70s until today, Molteni grows, is renewed and concretizes in a definitive way its value, and the undisputed style in the world panorama. In 2008 the distribution expanded beyond the Italian borders and was structured with foreign branches. New molteni&c | Dada monobrand stores are opening: about 600 in the world, including 40 Flagship Stores, also present in the largest international design metropolises such as London and New York. Moltenigroup.com is born, the web address of the new website of the Molteni Group. Key words are narration, inspiration, contemporaneity of molteni&c and Dada brands. As of April 2016, Belgian architect and designer Vincent Van Duysen has been appointed creative director of molteni&c and Dada. After the success of the Gliss Master wardrobe collection, the new collaboration focuses on image coordination and the retail concept.
