Anfibio sofa-bed by Alessandro Becchi for Giovannetti, 1972. Fully restored and upholstered with high-quality grey Italian natural leather. Mattress upholstered with soft sheepskin wool. The Anfibio sofa ranks among the most outstanding cult products of Italian design. It is innovative, original, and highly functional; it is a revolutionary sofa-bed, a symbol of high quality and sapient artisanry. It is possible to find it in the permanent collection of 13 museums worldwide, among which the MoMa in New York, since 1972. Alessandro Becchi designed the “Anfibio” sofa for the Italian manufacturer Giovannetti in 1970. It is characterized by generous dimensions and soft, embracing shapes that invite relaxation and comfort. It reminds a floating dinghy thanks to its lack of rigid mechanism. This feature inspired its name, which means amphibious. Furthermore, the sofa presents a rectangular steel structure and padding in non-deformable high-density polyurethane, covered with acrylic thermo-welded fibers and protective fabric. The Anfibio sofa by Giovannetti is available covered in leather or fabric and several colors. This artwork is the ideal convertible solution, the perfect combination of aesthetic research and innovative household living. Alessandro Becchi was born in Florence in 1946. He studied at ISIA in his hometown, and in the late 60s, he began his career as a designer. In 1970 he designed the revolutionary Anfibio sofa for Giovannetti. In 1972, thanks to the success of Anfibio, he was invited to the exhibition “Italy: the New Domestic Landscape” at the Museum of Modern Arts in New York. This date opens in close collaboration with Giovannetti. He designed a series of sofa-beds, such as Only You, Brando, Diletto, and the famous armchairs Le Bugie...

A world lies at your feet; ready for you to shape it to suit your ideas on taste, interiors and life. Paleta is your home, your workroom, a place to relax. A broad landscape that offers a warm welcome to friends and family whenever they drop in on you. Large covered seat bottoms form the basis for Paleta, a rich programme of sofas that you color to suit you. With luxuriant low or adjustable high cushions and sideboards in various sizes, Paleta is also available without the soft armrests. That gives you the opportunity to create space for an oak table leaf to integrate your side table into your sofa. In many of his furniture designs, designer Christian Werner chooses trapezoid shapes and round angles. We see them here too. They lend Paleta an appearance so characteristic of the designs from Werner: discreet, soft and friendly. Asymmetrical three seat sofa with one arm...
