The author of important collections for Giorgetti, Carlo Colombo continues to share his design thinking with the brand, a clear sign of the profound harmony that has been created between the designer and the company: together with the architect, in 2022 the brand presented the modular sofa SOHO.
SoHo stands out for the purity and softness of its forms, its rigorous volumes and the contemporary nature of its lines. A sofa of an extraordinary comfort characterised by an essential, light, airy line, suspended on aluminium feet, whose strength lies in the extreme attention to detail: from the detail designed by the armrest, which continues also in the back of the backrest, giving life to a modern capitonné, created with a stitching that divides, designs and holds the armrest; to the webbing that designs the profile of each element; to the ends of the visible feet made from the recovery of production scraps of solid Pau ferro, a unique, rare and precious essence from South America, as well as deeply linked to Giorgetti's roots.
Flexibility and customisation are at the heart of the project. A true system that, thanks to the numerous elements available and a double seat depth, offers infinite design and compositional possibilities designed to meet all space and usage requirements. Like a multi-tasking island, SoHo can be supplemented with small tables in Anthology inlaid wood or ash wood that extend its functionality to accommodate not only moments of relaxation but also to share social moments with friends or family or as a relaxed workstation for homeworking. The individual elements can also be used freestanding.
The many fabric and leather proposals in the Giorgetti collection also make each project variants unique; the covers are completely removable.
"SoHo is an extremely modern product. It is a light, airy sofa, suspended on aluminium feet. SoHo is a versatile product, which appeals to a very wide audience - I picture it in a bourgeois Milanese or Parisian apartment or in a ultra-modern home in Miami or Los Angeles."
Once again, the stylistic purity of Carlo Colombo meets the manufacturing skills of Giorgetti and from this now decade-long collaboration, timeless furnishing objects take shape: these ones manage to define space while transcending passing fashions.
