An international best-seller with warm, inviting shapes, where the back extends upwards to form a headrest.

The smooth, padded style, meantime, amplifies the sofa’s comfort quotient, affording myriad interpretations. Much imitated, Maralunga introduced the idea of an adjustable-height headrest, achieved by means of a bicycle chain embedded in the foam cushions. This avant-garde mechanism, patented by Cassina, makes the back cushion unfold and move upwards, to form a headrest.

The Maralunga family includes an armchair, a footrest and two- or three-seater sofas in several widths.

Upholstery pictured: fabric Champ cat. F, cod. 13F354. Black metal base.
