Andy Sofa
for B&B Italia
The Andy sofa by Paolo Piva for B&B Italia showcases an interplay of rectangular forms. Its slim-profile backrest features a broad horizontal plane, giving the sofa and sectional a low profile and block-like shape. The seating comfort easily adapts to the user’s needs; a simple twist of the broad backrest creates a new look and ergonomic support. Moreover, the seat base extends forward, offering a comfortable lounge experience. The Andy sofa is available in a wide range of fabrics and leather from the collection.
