The Mosaic Compositions of Minotti Sofas

21/02/2023 - Like dynamic three-dimensional mosaics, Minotti outdoor sofas are modular and reconfigurable systems, designed to inhabit large living spaces but also for smaller relaxation areas. Between sinuous shapes and original inspirations, the modular volumes combine different materials in a new and versatile mix of composition.

Florida collection, design Rodolfo Dordoni Studio

From hospitality to residential patios, the Florida seating collection by Rodolfo Dordoni retains its own spatial identity in any type of en plein air environment. Eco-leather profiles design the soft volumes of Minotti outdoor sofas: a system with sinuous shapes that is freely composed in the space.
A stainless metal structure is immersed in a foam padding covered with fiber and water repellent fabric. The back supports hold the armrest with metal stills color Pewter, useful to quickly unhook the cushions.
Introduced later in the collection, a removable backrest gives further compositional versatility to the seats.

Quadrado collection, design Marcio Kogan

Articulated in square teak grid modules, the Quadrado collection is the Minotti outdoor sofas system that mixes elements from the nautical sector with the style of Japanese metabolist architecture: the teak grille follows the pattern of the carabottino, platform that guarantees the outflow of water on ships, while modular volumes have a clear architectural imprint. Brazilian architect Marcio Kogan designs a flexible and informal solution in which the wooden bases welcome upholstered cushions supported by woven fiber backs.
Available in two versions - for large living areas or with more compact modules - the seats of the collection alternate with wooden tops that accommodate trays or candle holders, up to include a circular armchair and a double daybed.

Collections Patio and Patio Teak, design GamFratesi

Designed by the Italian-Danish duo GamFratesi, the Patio collection offers a mix of new materials that move away from the essences of teak and iroko already experimented: aluminum, wood, stone and rope shape the simple geometric shapes of Minotti outdoor sofas. Armchairs, loveseats or double daybeds, but also solid mahogany trays, hooked to the structure, are composed and reconfigured in the space as pieces of a puzzle. The extruded aluminium base accompanies the steel backrests covered in woven polypropylene yarn, while the die-cast aluminium feet lift the entire composition from the ground, creating a light and airy system.
From generous outdoor spaces to small terraces, the system is designed for every type of environment thanks to the variations in different depths, sizes and materials. A teak version is the evolution of the original family of Minotti outdoor sofas conceived in aluminium. The Patio Teak variant is born to create a more natural aesthetic and easily combined with other outdoor furniture, amplifying the flexibility of the original. Minotti on Archiproducts
