Designed by Vico Magistretti for Cassina in the 1970s and enduringly relevant through the 1980s, the Maralunga sofa is a masterclass in relaxed Italian modernism. This example, reupholstered in luscious dark chocolate mohair, elevates the design’s signature informality with a layer of quiet luxury—its plush, light-catching pile emphasizing the sofa’s soft, generous proportions. The ingenious adjustable backrests, which shift effortlessly from low and lounge-like to upright and supportive, speak to Magistretti’s human-centered approach to design, where comfort and innovation coexist seamlessly. Grounded yet indulgent, this Maralunga balances sculptural presence with lived-in ease, the deep, velvety brown upholstery lending warmth and depth while honoring the sofa’s timeless, effortlessly sophisticated character.
