Insieme, the emotional sofa

The Insieme sofa by Gaetano Pesce: a heart at the center of the back ideally unites the surface in soft fabric, quilted and completely removable, in a warm embrace. The pink and blue colors pay homage to the conventions of “his and hers.” Gaetano Pesce described the piece as follows: "This new work in collaboration with Meritalia® is meant to be a celebration of affections and love. The Insieme sofa is a round of applause for closeness and mutual discovery, for everything that defies insularity and careless separations. Is it easier to join or to divide? Which is easier: modesty or arrogance? Is it better to live or to survive? Hence, today our sofa can be comfortable for those who use it, of course, but it can also become a vehicle of reflection on what intrigues us, afflicts us, or makes us happy: together, insieme, we will do many things; together we will add purpose to our lives, we will improve the world.”

Insieme is also an expression of the designer’s ability to create “seriously ironic” objects that are capable of attracting us not only for rational reasons, but also for emotional or unconscious motives that trigger “affective” reactions, in this case. Pesce is the forerunner of “narrative and relational design,” formulating design solutions that foster interaction, cooperation and empathy between people.
