Play Sofa
The Play sofa by Maurizio Manzoni for Nicoline Italia combines softly enclosing shapes with manually movable backrests.
An inward-folding mechanism changes the seating position, while generous foam padding softens the reinforced wooden structure. Leather and fabric upholstery options give the modular elements different surface treatments, with low black feet keeping attention on the rounded volumes.
Every detail, considered.

The Play Sofa uses manually movable backrests that fold inward to change the sitting position.

Low thermoplastic feet and finished sectional sides carry the same construction across separate modular arrangements.
