Waldo W2 Sofa by Pietro Franceschini
About the Item
Waldo W2 sofa by Pietro Franceschini
Materials: Mohair Velvet
Dimensions: W 240 x L 94 x H 57-93cm
Designed during a creative momentum in the relaxed Italian Riviera Ligure, our new Urania collection brings playfulness and longing for those innocent days of our childhood. The soft lines and upholstered curves continue our research on Neotenic Design and Sculptural Furniture. What emerges is fluidity, innocence, sensuality and the frisky feminine and masculine. The modularity inspired by the classic DS-600 is reinterpreted with a fresh and current touch which makes Urania an instant iconic series. The pieces are locally manufactured in Milan and come in two versions: a unique ‘pleated version’ for the launch in Mexico City during the Transatlantico exhibition by Galerie Philia and a minimal and sleek version for the following production.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
