Charme and Charlotte, the proposals designed by Laviani for the Smania living area

Ferruccio Laviani interprets the spirit and know-how of Smania with two brand new proposals dedicated to the living room

For the first time, the signature of the architect and designer Ferruccio Laviani encounters the Smania philosophy. A winning formula that is expressed in two elegant projects for the living area.

A new and distinguishable language that takes advantage of the handcrafted culture and the meticulous attention to detail, which has always been the prerogative of the brand.

Versatile proposals that proudly enter into the Smania catalogue, enriching the range dedicated to the luxury living room.

The Charme series, composed of a sofa and armchair, masterfully embodies the concept of balance between classic and modern, versatile aesthetic solutions that profoundly distinguish the Smania identity.

The structure brings to mind the historical “hunting” model, considered the original prototype of a sofa when it made its first appearance at the start of the seventeenth century in the Knole House, historic English country residence located in Kent. A contemporary interpretation that makes linear and clean geometries the strong point for a fresh and essential design, which are in contrast with the soft volumes of the seating that offer an enveloping support.

The design of the Charlotte sofa is expressed through large-volume cushions that discreetly conceal the structure. The highlighted seams are another valuable design element. A luxury solution that emerges in the careful attention to detail, from the leather-covered feet to the elements in steel.

Once again, this Made in Italy excellence is born from the union of passion and bold aesthetic taste, which can be customised in the upholstery and finishes.
