Designed by designer and architect Ramón Esteve, the furniture collection includes a sofa, armchair and a coffee table all of which aside from the latter are finished with a series of polyester cords. The pieces boast a stainless steel frame that's sturdy yet minimal and covered with an epoxy powder coating for additional protection. The MDF Italia 'Arpa' furniture collection boasts a harp-like aesthetic that comes in four color options in order to seamlessly match existing decor. The pieces highlight a bare bones design that is accented by plush cushions to ensure they can offer impressive comfort.
