Elsa Modular Armchair

The Elsa Armchair is a profound tribute to the surrealist legacy of Elsa Schiaparelli. Designed as a sophisticated play on overlapping volumes, the piece draws its primary inspiration from the iconic padded sleeves and structured tailoring of Schiaparelli’s couture coats.

Its silhouette reflects a philosophy of “deconstructed fashion,” where the internal structure, usually hidden, becomes the focal point of the design. The bold, curvy armrests and soft cushioning are presented intentionally, transforming the armchair’s comfort into an exquisite tactile experience.
