ROOM FOR MORE WITH ELOGIO
The Elogio Sofa was never a single thing. In 1974, Tobia Scarpa designed it as a system: modules that can stand alone or unite, cushions that stack and drape, a shape that answers to the room rather than the other way around.

Lower, refined in its materials, and faithful to the original idea that a sofa might change as you do. From these thoughtful configurations, a room takes shape. The oversized cushions, playful and interchangeable, shift into new geometries, so the same sofa is rarely the same twice.
A personal choice before it is a sofa, the expression comes to life across an array of materials. Reales, a fresh, refined cotton. Fustagno, GUBI's velvety take on fustian, deep to the touch. Leather, suede. A fabric and finish that draws to your room, your rhythm, your idea of comfort.
The bold geometry of Brutalism held against the warmth of Italian rooms in the seventies, indulgence and restraint in the one frame. Half a century later, the balance still holds. What Scarpa understood then reads as clearly now, that comfort and structure need not be at odds.
Born in Venice in 1935, Tobia Scarpa is one of the most influential figures in postmodern Italian architecture and design. He is known for his focus on material exploration, a curiosity-driven experimental process, and the rigor and imagination he brings to every project - from bookcases to buildings.
