Modernista Sofa
The Moroso Modernista Sofa by Doshi & Levien combines straight proportions with restrained button detailing across its upholstered back.
A slim powder-coated steel base raises the seat, emphasizing the long horizontal outline. Polyurethane foam and polyester fiber cover wooden structures, with fixed upholstery and several sofa widths from a compact settee to larger three-seat versions.
Every detail, considered.
