Melville Sofa
The Melville sofa by Ditre Italia combines full upholstered cushions with edges folded like the collar of a jacket.
Designed by Patrick Norguet, its fabric-covered modules use these tailored folds to define the seat and back. Straight sofas, corner sections and chaise elements carry the same generous proportions into different living-room arrangements.
Every detail, considered.
