Modern 'Veranda' Sofa by Vico Magistretti for Cassina, in Original Fabric, Italy Designed by acclaimed Italian architect Vico Magistretti for Cassina, the Veranda modular sofa is a standout piece of 1980s design. Reflecting the era’s bold experimentation with form, ergonomics, and movement, this sofa remains a true design classic. Composed of three seamlessly connected seating elements, the sofa forms an organic, flowing silhouette that encourages comfort and conversation. A hallmark innovation of the piece is its individually adjustable backrests—a revolutionary feature at the time, still praised for its practicality and comfort today. Upholstered in its original multi-colored geometric fabric, the sofa captures the vibrant yet understated aesthetic of Italian postmodernism. Please note: while the original upholstery is intact and adds to the sofa’s vintage charm, reupholstery is recommended to restore full comfort and bring a fresh, updated look. This also allows for personalization while preserving the iconic structure. The design is grounded by a minimalist black metal frame, lending the sofa a light, floating presence while offering robust support. Sculptural yet inviting, it features curved lines, winged seat backs, and generous cushioning that reflect Magistretti’s playful yet refined approach to form. Produced by Cassina, one of Italy’s most prestigious furniture manufacturers, this piece is not only a functional seating solution but also a highly collectible work of design history. Perfect for modernist, creative, or postmodern interiors, the Veranda sofa stands as a testament to 1980s Italian innovation and craftsmanship. Two sofas available – price listed is per sofa.
