An enclave of intimacy

Balancing classic and contemporary with

an element of the unexpected, GamFratesi

passionately pursue projects that are subtly

embedded with a story. Drawing on their

Danish/Italian roots as architects to create

well-crafted, conceptual ideas that embrace

contrasts.

For their Haiku Sofa, inspiration came from the

Japanese genre of poetry by the same name.

With Haiku poetry, the aim is to use very few

words to convey a myriad of emotions and

associations. To capture the essence of an

experience with succinct simplicity. Similarly,

GamFratesi’s Haiku Sofa is designed with just

a few lines to convey a feeling that’s open yet

encompassing.

The clear outline of the outer shell is juxtaposed

against the soft interior, providing an intimate

sense of acoustic and visual privacy. At the

same time, the singular seat cushion, loose

pillows and upholstered back add an ample

feeling of comfort.

To highlight the contrast between the outer

shell and the interior is the option to mix or

match a wide variety of fabrics. To complete

the picture, the delicate, discrete legs give the

impression that the sofa is almost hovering

above the ground.

In large, expansive spaces, the Haiku Sofa

introduces a cosy sense of comfort, where you

can create enclaves of intimacy with clusters

of the larger high-back versions of Haiku. For

the hospitality sector and retail environments,

the smaller high-back version, will enhance a

feeling of privacy.
