COSTURA MODULAR SOFA SYSTEM

Costura sofa collection combines slim frames and tailored lines with plush back cushions shaped to provide lumbar support and a roomy seat that invites serious lounging.

Costura sofa 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 is a system with elements that can be combined as you wish; seats of 70cm and 100cm, plus corner piece and chaiselongue, Costura offers endless configurations.

Design Jon Gasca

Costura sofa collection looks timeless but there is plenty of innovations involved in it:

  • FRAME: The frame of Costura is a strong plywood shell. This makes the sofa frame super strong and slim. So that the can save space at home.
  • UPHOLSTERY: Costura sofa upholstery has many details of traditional tayloring.
  • LEGS: the legs are made of injected aluminium with a plastic stopper for a perfect fitting on the floor.
  • TWO POSITION: the legs can be positioned in a frontal way to have a more minimal look, or angled to get a more classical look.

“The inspiration for Costura comes from my grandmother, who was a seamstress who worked in Cristobal Balenciaga´s atelier. This is an homage to the craftmanship of their work. A sofa tailored to perfection”.
