#Milan2016 preview: Costura sofa by Stua, inspired by the noble tradition of tailoring

Costura sofa by Stua refers to the noble tradition of tailoring that has guided the design process. In San Sebastián, home of renown fashion designers like Balenciaga, small ateliers have dressed citizens during decades with impeccably tailored suits and dresses.

STUA wanted to bring this tradition back, working with artisans, to create a piece of upholstery that is like a suit that covers the innovative inside structure. One more time, STUA delivers a surprising design that reflects the timelessness adding an innovative spirit.

Costura collection includes: ottoman, armchair, sofa and sofa with chaiselongue.
Costura sofa collection is a Jon Gasca design.

DETAILS OF COSTURA

TWO POSITION LEGS
You can align the legs to be straight or diagonal.

MOVING CHAISELONGUE
The chaise can be attached to the right or left, and reconfigured whenever you wish.

THIN FRAME
The frame of the sofa is made of thin gently bent plywood.
This is a strong and elegant solution that saves a lot of space.
The beautiful backrest allows the sofa to be in any position of the room, also as a room divider.

PILLOW STYLE CUSHIONS
Each seat has two cushions as backrest, both have a pillow look.
The large one is made of foam & the smaller one is a natural feather down pillow.

REMOVABLE COVERS
The upholstery of Costura is carefully crafted with subtle tailoring details.
All the covers of the complete Costura collection are fully removable.
