Composed of soft upholstered pieces that can be combined among themselves, the Perry seating system heralds a new way of designing living spaces with innovative arrangements, using modules whose irregular shape makes it possible to break up the linearity of furniture configurations lending them a more dynamic flow and more casual appearance.

Contours generously padded in goose down, discreet proportions, sophisticated tailoring details – like the piping that outlines the silhouette of the upholstered pieces – are just some of the distinctive features of this unconventional design.

Another key aspect of the Perry seating system is the option to replace the traditional upholstered armrest with an elegant and equally functional cowhide-clad container with a handy compartment for storing throws, magazines and books or to insert a wood coffee table among the upholstered pieces, lending originality and functionality to the arrangement.

The variety of available modules – stand-alone, L-shaped and asymmetrical seating elements, ottomans and chaise longues, cowhide-clad storage, and wood coffee tables – allow for the creation of a great number of arrangements: from more compact stand-alone versions, ideal for face-to-face placement, to larger, more complex solutions, designed to enliven a distinctly contemporary domestic landscape.
