A sofa variant of the Nuvola armchair designed by Hannes Peer for SEM. Nuvola is a futuristic triple seat with a vintage feel for a contemporary living room: the seats rotate on two axes so that it can work in any architectural context. The iron structure, with brass feet, has S-shaped profiles with dimensions reduced to a minimum. The shell pays homage to the work of Sergio Rodrigues and Percival Lafe, following in its shape the underlying metal structure, a detail that makes this piece of design unique and unmistakable. The sofa is constructed in such a way that the padding, in leather or fabric, deliberately exaggerated, seems to float in the air, the underlying structures remain hidden and entirely covered by the padding, which protrudes from all sides, as if it were an unstoppable voluptuous shape.
SEM
Eight series collections with the quality of a limited edition, designed and made in Italy. Seven designers who share an artisanal approach to design and refinement of details. This is the soul of SEM, a private label born in 2018 to realize thirty years of experience in retail and interior design. SEM translates its philosophy of living into a refined and multifaceted line of furniture, where elegance is also a symptom of the intelligence of the construction solutions. A proposal rich in sartorial details, with a constant attention to the functionality and contemporaneity of industrial design.
