Vico Magistretti Designed the Raffles Sofa for De Padova

This classic designer sofa breathes a timeless aesthetic. The silhouette was conceived by Italian designer Vico Magistretti in 1988. He focused on combining style, with the undeniable comfort of big cushions. The "small, elegant details like carved wooden feet with swivel castors," allow for the classic designer sofa to overwhelm one (in a positive way) with its inviting comfort.

The classic designer sofa is available either as a two-or a three-seater. The brand, De Padova (founded in the 1950s by Fernando and Maddalena De Padova), has also included an accompanying armchair and pouf. The company also makes the classic silhouette available in "hundreds of fabric color options." This allows for the brand to accommodate the different interior design visions and different tastes of style-minded consumers.
