Alberto Rosselli, ‘Confidential’ Sofa, Saporiti, Italy, 1972
About the Item
Alberto Rosselli (1921-1976) was a pivotal figure in 20th-century Italian design. After graduating in architecture from the Politecnico di Milano in 1947, Rosselli remained in Milan, where he co-founded the influential Studio Ponti Fornaroli Rosselli (P.F.R) with Gio Ponti and Antonio Fornaroli. He was also a key contributor to the Pirelli Tower project and founded the design journal 'Stile Industria' in 1954, which played a significant role in advancing the relationship between design and industry.
The ‘Confidential’ sofa, designed by the Roselli is a pioneering example of modular seating and recognised as one of the first modular sofas designed for the home engineered to be entirely produced by polyurethane injected foam.
The sofa has been recently reupholstered in the original Hermes orange Italian leather.
