A genuine Maxalto "Apta" sofa, designed by Antonio Citterio for B&B Italia and made in Italy. Part of Maxalto's contemporary collection, it features clean architectural lines, a low-profile brushed-metal base, and generously proportioned seat and back cushions upholstered in a neutral beige fabric.
Please note the sofa shows honest signs of everyday wear (pictured): general fabric dulling, some cushion softening, and marking on the arms and base. It remains structurally sound, with no tears or broken seams — a comfortable, modern piece ready for a new home. As it has never been professionally cleaned since purchase, most marks should lift with a deep clean, making it ideally suited to a buyer happy to arrange this.

Height: 65 cm | Width: 210 cm | Depth: 95 cm
Condition: Used - With Some Signs of Wear & Tear
Born and raised on the idea of Piero Ambrogio Busnelli and Afra & Tobia Scarpa with the work of Antonio Citterio the Maxalto furniture has reached the point of embodying a catalogue of modern neo-classics. Modern because it is ideally linked to the visions of the most libertarian masters like Jean-Michel Frank, with respect to the excessive rigor of Le Corbusier or Mies van der Rohe. Neo-classics, because their forms and finishes are filtered by the contemporary perspective of an Italian architect. The cultural roots are important, and the humanistic orientation of the designer is essential to approach the various scales with the same artful intelligence. While he designs the construction of brand new buildings, infrastructures or entire skyscrapers, Antonio Citterio is well aware of the fact that in interiors, for many reasons, the forms and types of the furnishings always change more slowly, without radical breaks with the past. The home and its traditional spaces - living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms - return to their status as a nucleus of social interaction, with some big difference. In those same spaces, also thanks to an exceptional acceleration of technology, it is now possible to have both personal and electronic communication: to have a dialogue over great distances, to interact with sophisticated devices, or simply to rediscover the dimension of play, enjoyment, conversation.
