Scroll down and get to know the Mario Bellini sofa and its features.

This pandemic has taken each of us by surprise, since humanity has not experienced such an event for many years. The situation has changed for a lot of persons due to the preventive restrictions that have been implemented in order to avoid contagion. These are obviously related with isolation, and consequently it has made us spend more time at home than many are not used to. However, not everything is bad! Without sounding extra-optimistic, new opportunities can also appear out of the chaos. A simple example of this is that now it is possible to have the extra time that you wanted to have at home to watch that favorite series, movie or TV show. Not only this, but you can also have more time to rest by lying on your sofa while reading your favorite book.

That is why today we have brought a sofa option which will leave you hallucinating! The Mario bellini sofa is considered one of the most comfortable in our catalog of modern sofas.

The Camaleonda sofa made by Mario Bellini was first presented at the exhibition called: ‘Italy and The New Domestic Landscape’ in the MOMA Museum in 1972 and it’s maybe the most remarkable modular Italian sofa.

A design career is a process of learning better and better what you know instinctively.

We often see the modular sofa term in many blogs, but what really means and why is this relevant when choosing a sofa for quarantine?

A modular sofa is “sofa broken-up into chair pieces like chaises, corner, seats, and ottomans”. This makes it a configurable furniture piece where you can design your own layout, either creating a U form or any other type of distribution.

That being said, why is this feature so important? Think about it for a minute. When you're home alone for more than a couple of weeks, you start to develop some arrangement ideas so you don't get bored. Then the modular feature that Mario Bellini has is the perfect piece to support your creative layout ideas. You can place the modules wherever you want and you can innovate your design as much as you want. You can also use some of the modules inside other rooms.

For example, if you have a home office workspace, you can include one of the Mario Bellini sofa modules in a corner of this room. This will double as a break chair, to take breaks within your working hours.

But, what other features does Mario Bellini sofa have to offer?

  • Cushions: these are filled with polyurethane foam inserted, forming three dense layers of different thicknesses.
  • Upholstery: it is made of a very soft material called aniline leather. It is a “type of leather dyed exclusively with soluble dyes. The dye colors the leather without producing the uniform surface of an insoluble pigmented finish paint or sealer.
  • Eco-friendly: it doesn’t have any toxic components.
  • Sofa legs: they are made of solid wood, which makes it resistant to heavyweights.
