944 Soriana Lounge Chair
944 Soriana lounge chair by Afra & Tobia Scarpa for Cassina.
The Soriana lounge chair was first designed by Afra and Tobia Scarpa in 1969. Cassina has redeployed the Soriana range and has rebooted it using environmentally friendly materials and new colours.
In 1970 the Soriana was awarded a Compasso d'Oro prize solidifying its standing as a style icon. Defined by its voluminous curves, the Soriana lounge chair is wrapped, generously with a fixed upholstery, which forms relaxed creases around the body of the chair. Upholstered buttons adorn the upholstery adding a quilted effect, both on the seat and backrest.
Cassina has introduced a range of luxurious fabrics and leathers which can be paired with a black, white, China red, blue or green painted metal frame.
In the 1960s and 70s, Cassina was experimenting with materials and forms and developing designs with advanced solutions. Soriana remains largely the same today as it did back then, although materials and construction have been redeveloped for an eco-friendly version, which has a lower impact on the planet but a higher level of comfort.
The original polyurethane structure of the Soriana collection has been substituted for a series of bags filled with BioFoam® microspheres, which have an organic base created from biopolymers. This material is durable enough for long-term use while also being biodegradable and can be industrially composted.
