For his first project in collaboration with Natuzzi Italia, Andrea Steidl draws inspiration from the Apulian architectures of the Frederickian era of the thirteenth century. In the refined seat, Steidl has broken down the concept of comfort into individual elements held together by an orderly wooden structure on which light and soft volumes rest. The three fundamental elements of the sofa, namely the cushion, the backrest, and the armrest, form a fascinating play of heights that enhances and underlines visual comfort.

Bio
The pursuit of harmony is the dream that has shaped Natuzzi’s actions since its foundation in 1959, focusing on the right balance between body and mind, mankind and nature, and between different cultures.
Natuzzi’s determination to be at the centre of the Mediterranean, producing, innovating, and creating value there, is the natural consequence of an Ethic of Harmony which still guides the company.
Designing and producing a whole lifestyle is, for Natuzzi, a way to express its DNA also through high-value collaboration with some of the most interesting creative minds.
