Guido Faleschini "Teorema" Modular Sofa for Mariani, 1974

About the Item

Guido Faleschini “Teorema” Modular Sofa for Mariani, Italy, 1974 Guido Faleschini designed this rare modular sofa as a part of the "Teorema" collection for Mariani in 1974. As Mario Bellini in the "Camaleonda" sofa, Faleschini created an unconventional sofa featuring different modular elements, easily movable to customize the composition. Each module is unique for its unusual shapes and the inclusion of details such as leather straps and metal shelves. This playful piece of furniture allows you to enjoy changing the layout and creating a redesigned space thanks to its combination of curves, corners, volumes, and holes. The "Teorema" sofa is upholstered with the original velvet, wears a nice patina, and is marked with the Mariani logo underneath. After training as an architect in Milan, Guido Faleschini (1924) started his design career collaborating with furniture companies in Brianza and Switzerland, such as Artflex, Mariani and Chromo. He also developed residential projects with an attentive eye for experimentation and combining designs. Our atelier carefully restored this sofa. Slight signs of use and time.
