"The biggest challenge was to design two sofas for Porro, on the year of his hundredth anniversary. The name Moulage derives from a tailoring technique to build clothes directly on the mannequin. It is used to drape, then fold, build folds directly on the mannequin from which the pattern to make the final model is derived. There is this beautiful fold that follows the armrest and is fixed by three stick basting stitches that give it its unique character.” 
Francesco Rota.

A contemporary aesthetic is fused with sartorial excellence in the Moulage sofa. Its refined look, with draping reminiscent of haute couture, highlights the project’s meticulous attention to detail and artisanal quality. Elevated off the ground, the sofa appears to float in space, conveying visual lightness and elegance. The composition is punctuated by large square cushions designed to offer a comfortable, relaxed seating experience, paired with soft, generous armrests and backrests, completed by loose cushions in soft down. The fabric, shaped with tailored pleats, defines volumes and surfaces with an almost sculptural touch, turning each element into an expression of style and craftsmanship.
