Italian Red Sofa "Lara" Designed by N. Massari, R. Pamio, R. Toso from 1968
About the Item
The iconic Lara sofa, designed by Noti Massari, Roberto Pamio, and Renato Toso for Stilwood, Italy, in 1968, is a timeless work of art that captures the essence of 1960s design. This extraordinary sofa is composed of two pieces that join in the center, creating a symphony of fluid and futuristic shapes.
The red lattice that completely envelops the sofa is a true ode to eccentricity and design courage. This choice of upholstery transforms the sofa into a bold statement of style and individuality. It's a choice that embraces experimentation and the creativity of the designers of the era.
The Design Period, the 1960s, is known as the era of Space Age, a time of innovation and futuristic vision. The curved and sinuous shapes of the sofa pay homage to this extraordinary era when humanity dreamed of exploring the stars.
This sofa is the ideal choice for eccentric homes, design lounges, or spaces inspired by the Space Age style. It's a living testament to an era of experimentation and a visionary future that continues to enchant and inspire.

Renato Toso
Italian designer and architect Renato Toso creates beautiful mid-century modern and modern pendant lights and sconces out of creamy Murano glass. His designs have a chic retro appeal characterized by soft curves and effortless elegance. He is part of the design firm Toso, Massari & Associates, which he founded with his wife, designer Giovanna Noti Massari.
Toso was born in 1940 in Murano, Italy. Murano is a Venetian island with a long glassmaking tradition. Both Toso and Massari studied architecture in Venice and founded Toso, Massari & Associati in 1966. The studio specializes in architecture and lighting design for interior and industrial spaces.
Toso, Massari & Associati has partnered with numerous companies over the years, including lighting company Leucos, which Toso and Massari participated in founding. The studio has designed collections for historic lighting manufacturer Vistosi, one of Murano’s most prominent glassmakers. In 2007, Toso, Massari & Associati created a series of modular lamps called Ecos for the company. This series was followed up in 2013 by the Noon lamp collection, based on the moon’s phases.
The studio has won first place in several design competitions and shows, including the Venice Biennale, the Milan Triennial XII and the National Design Competition in Trieste. Its work has been exhibited at the Louvre in Paris, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Palazzo Grassi in Venice.
Today, Toso and Massari’s children — Anna, Marco, Pio and Tito —are all part of Toso, Massari & Associati.
