Two-seater straw sofa by Giuseppe Pagano

Creator: Giuseppe Pagano Pogatschnig
Offered by: Vintage Domus Srl

Description
This two-seater sofa, designed by the visionary Giuseppe Pagano during the Italian Rationalist era, embodies the principles of functionality and simplicity that defined this movement. Crafted with a curved wooden frame, the sofa stands out for its elegant yet understated lines, embracing a minimalist aesthetic free of decorative excess. The skillfully shaped wood, with its soft and continuous curves, conveys a sense of lightness that perfectly blends with the idea of comfort and durability.

The seat and backrest feature meticulous handwoven craftsmanship using twisted cord in a refined square pattern. This artisanal technique adds texture and depth to the design, highlighting the precision and care involved in its construction. The cord weaving not only enhances the visual appeal but also reflects the harmony between form and function, a key principle of Rationalist design.

This sofa is not just a piece of furniture but a true homage to the creative genius of Giuseppe Pagano, who revolutionized the concept of design through his work, advocating for a modern, accessible language rich in meaning.

This masterpiece of design is a rare testament to Rationalist thought, an object that invites reflection on the value of simplicity and stylistic coherence.
