Harbor Sofa
HARBOR SOFA
Designed by Naoto Fukasawa 2018
Sinuously enveloping and designed to extend the existing collection of armchairs and ottomans of the same name, the Harbor two-seater sofa stands out for its sculptural, ergonomic shape, made possible by a frame in polyurethane foam typical of the B&B Italia design culture.Whether upholstered in fabric or in leather, Harbor comes with a visible metal zipper at the rear of the backrest, a decorative trim that allows the cover to be removed.
