Soriana Chaise

In 1969, Afra and Tobia Scarpa designed the Soriana chaise, a bold yet comfort­able state­ment with abun­dant curves and relaxed creases. In 2021, Cassina has now rein­tro­duced this modern classic with a selec­tion of chro­matic combi­na­tions that match lush fabrics and soft leathers. To meet the demands of the fans of the orig­i­nal version, it will also be avail­able with a chrome brace. 

The orig­i­nal, polyurethane struc­ture of this version has been completely substi­tuted with a series of bags filled with micros­pheres made from BioFoam®, the first patented foam to have an organic base made from biopoly­mers produced from natural resources. This mate­r­ial is hard­wear­ing and suit­able for long- term use while it is also biodegrad­able and can be industrially composted. 

This project is part of a larger mission to recover and safe­guard the works of Tobia Scarpa. The Soriana series consists of a sofa in two sizes, a lounge chair and a chaise lounge.
