Elan Sofa
The Cappellini Elan Sofa by Jasper Morrison brings a slim metal base together with softly padded, clearly defined volumes.
The collection includes armchairs, sofas and an ottoman, with removable fabric or leather covers. Feather cushions can be replaced by a foam option on request, while satin stainless steel or matte-painted bases change the frame's visual character.
