Having worked with influential Italian post-modern design groups Alchimia and Memphis, Paola Navone has a particular talent for rediscovering designs from the past and bringing them to a new audience.Setting elegant leather against a solid wood frame, the Hepburn has all the clean lines, proportions and solid rectangular forms one would expect of mid-century furniture.Beautifully crafted and upholstered in southern Italy, each of the four cushions are embellished with two rows of leather covered buttons with other period details including matching piping throughout and lightly tapered dark wenge wood feet.While the deep, low seat is very much in-keeping with the vintage feel it also makes this classy corner sofa the ideal seat to fall back into and watch a film-noir thriller.Such comfort is thanks to a pre-stretched elasticated webbing in conjunction with foam core seat and back cushions with a fibre topper.These modern features enable the user to sink into this sofa while a slightly angled back that is also slightly raised above the armrests provides a gentle recline and plentiful support for posture.
