Contemporary living is at the heart of the Lucio collection, helmed by creative director Vincent Van Duysen. This beautifully constructed sofa embodies a harmonious blend of functionality and character, united by an artistic vision that elevates any space.
“As Portaluppi’s work, this new sensual sofa is a blend between classicism and modernity”
Vincent Van Duysen
“The Lucio series is characterized by fluidity and femininity,” remarks Van Duysen, underscoring the graceful detailing of each piece within the collection. Based on the expertise of Italian upholstery masters, every product in the Lucio series reflects meticulous craftsmanship, passion, and dedication.
The distinctive tone-on-tone stitching of the Lucio sofa accentuates its sinuous silhouette, while strategically placed openings on the backrests add a sense of lightness and breathability to the design of each piece.
Available in two sofa configurations, the Lucio collection offers versatility and customization with a refined selection of fabrics and leathers curated by Marta Ferri. Innovations in padding materials enhance ergonomic comfort while reducing environmental impact, underscoring Molteni&C's commitment to sustainability. The padding uses Polimex®, a latest-generation material made from 50% recycled material, 100% recyclable and allowing to reduce CO2 emissions.
Vincent Van Duysen was born in 1962, in Lokeren, Belgium and graduated in architecture at the Higher Institute of Architecture Sint-Lucas, in Ghent. From 1986 to 1989 he worked in Milan and Brussels. He opened his own studio in Antwerp, in 1990 focusing on architecture and interior design. The relationship between interior design and architecture in his work is profound. Furnishings and accessories are designed with an architectural perspective that is not limited by form, but is expressed with a careful perception of interior space and its relationship to the exterior architecture. By interpreting architecture and redefining its proportions, Van Duysen creates objects of great purity and simplicity that still retain a concrete character and solid form.
