Posted by Gabriela Martinez on Feb 22nd 2021

Functionality in furniture is a very popular topic today. Every year that passes the trend changes and since the end of 2020 a strong trend towards functionality has been perceived in all areas, including the field of furniture design. But, we must mention that this is not something new. Since the golden or mid-century years, functionality has been the protagonist or muse to create numerous pieces, among these is the wonderful sofa that we will be talking about today; the Mario Bellini sofa.

Since its launch, this was a piece of furniture that came into dispute due to its -by then- strange and striking shape. However, the Mario Bellini sofa was held captive for that very reason. Being a modular sofa or as many call it; configurable, it has proven to offer one of the characteristics that has been sought since ancient times: functionality. But, how was Mario Bellini capable of creating such a complete and functional piece? Let’s show you a bit of history about the creator of the Camaleonda sofa and then we will describe precisely the features of this piece. Scroll down and get to know about one of our greatest deals for this month!

Mario Bellini was a revolutionary designer

Bellini began his career at a very young age, after graduating as an architect from the Milan Polytechnic he had the great opportunity to participate in projects together with "La Rinascente", the prestigious Milanese department store. Cassina was the company that sponsored Bellini during his first years, this took place between the 60s and 70s, where he managed to create revolutionary and authentic designs. Here he was also able to demonstrate being able to create pieces with new materials and structural technology.

Now that we introduce you to an iconic Italian designer, it's time to show you the characteristics of the replica of one of his most adored pieces; the Camaleonda sofa.

Main features of the Camaleonda replica sofa

This sofa is not just a “pretty face” it can also offer you many features which is why it can be considered as the most functional piece of your living room. Scroll down to see what we are talking about.

The first thing you should know about the Mario Bellini sofa is that it won't suffer any back pain or lower body related pains because it is totally filled with polyurethane foam inserted forming three dense layers of different thicknesses, creating the best spot for relaxation, taking naps.

Now, regarding the upholstery, it is covered with a soft and durable material called aniline leather. This type of leather not only offers a warm sense but also it shows a natural aspect with a sophisticated shine.
