Description

A Revolutionary Interpretation of Seating

The Flap Sofa by Edra redefines what it means to sit, lounge, or recline with a radically original design that departs from the traditional sofa archetype. Its ultra-slim 14-centimeter profile belies the complexity within, revealing a sculptural form that commands attention in any contemporary interior. Designed as a statement piece, it elevates the entire spatial narrative—more than furniture, it is a dynamic presence that transforms the living room into an exhibition of form and function.

Nine Adjustable Elements, Infinite Possibilities

The Flap Sofa's core innovation lies in its nine individually articulated segments, each capable of reclining at six different angles. These adjustable flaps function independently, allowing for highly customized configurations that suit every posture and preference. Whether used as a backrest, armrest, headrest, seat, or footrest, each element adapts organically, offering anatomical dynamism that responds to the human body’s desire for comfort and expression. The synergy of these flaps creates an evolving landscape of relaxation tailored to individual and collective needs.

Multifunctional Design, Sculptural Versatility

Whether as a striking single lounger, a sprawling daybed for two, or a communal conversation platform, the Flap Sofa is an ode to multifunctionality. Its sleek yet expansive presence supports a wide range of uses—from meditative solitude to social interaction, from casual lounging to an impromptu workspace. As both an artistic installation and a practical seating solution, it invites the user to explore new modes of living, redefining what comfort, performance, and beauty mean in the world of high-end home décor.

About The Artist

EDRA

Edra is an Italian powerhouse in the world of high-end design, where tradition meets radical innovation. Founded in Tuscany in 1987 by Valerio and Monica Mazzei, the brand transformed a family furniture legacy into a global beacon of avant-garde creativity. With the guidance of its first artistic director, Massimo Morozzi, Edra set out to craft “superlative furniture”—pieces that blend technological advancement with the soul of handcrafted artistry. From the very beginning, Edra has championed a philosophy rooted not in trends but in timelessness, creating works that straddle the line between sculpture and utility. Its designs—elegant, sculptural, and emotionally resonant—are built to provoke thought, offer comfort, and redefine how we relate to the spaces we inhabit.

At the heart of Edra’s most iconic creations is Francesco Binfaré—an artist and designer who transforms observation into poetry. A long-time collaborator with the brand, Binfaré’s creative journey is shaped by an unrelenting curiosity about human behavior, intimacy, and the poetic essence of everyday life. His work resists traditional boundaries, favoring fluidity and feeling over formula. Having begun his design career at Cassina in the 1960s, Binfaré developed a deep understanding of ergonomics, narrative, and the role of emotion in design. His approach is cinematic—he doesn’t merely sketch shapes, but captures stories, gestures, and moods. Furniture, for Binfaré, is not inert matter—it is expressive, alive, and in dialogue with those who use it.

This ethos takes monumental form in creations like the Flap Sofa and Standway—pieces that dissolve the limits of conventional seating. With Flap, Binfaré reinvented the notion of a sofa as a static object; nine adjustable flaps allow for reclining, lounging, working, or dreaming, turning the piece into a dynamic landscape of possibilities. Similarly, Standway reinterprets the archetypal sofa into something bold yet infinitely adaptable. Its silhouette is sculptural and commanding, yet softened by the transformative magic of Binfaré’s Smart Cushion technology—allowing armrests and backrests to reshape with a touch, always responding to the body’s needs.

These pieces are more than functional—they’re experiential. They mirror life’s fluidity and individuality, standing as powerful expressions of design that are as emotional as they are exceptional. Through such visionary works, Edra continues to affirm its place as a symbol of Italian design at its finest—where craftsmanship, innovation, and artistry converge to shape the future of living.

Style Guide

Edra, a vanguard of contemporary Italian design, is celebrated for its innovative, emotionally intelligent furniture that transcends convention. Each piece is more than a functional item—it is a sculptural embodiment of comfort, creativity, and technical mastery. The Flap Sofa is a striking example of this ethos, blending artistic expression with transformative ergonomics to become an iconic centerpiece in any modern setting. Uncover how to bring out the best of Flap with our curated placement and styling suggestions.

Ideal Placement:

  • Living Room Focal Point: The Flap Sofa is best placed in a spacious living room where it can serve as the primary focal point. Its sculptural form deserves ample negative space around it, allowing each adjustable flap to be seen and appreciated without visual clutter.
  • Open-Plan Loft or Studio: For homes with open floor plans, the Flap Sofa can define the lounge area within a larger multifunctional space. Positioning it slightly off-center, with wide perimeter clearance, helps emphasize its floating, gallery-like presence.
  • Luxury Retreat or Reading Nook: In expansive master suites or dedicated reading areas, the sofa functions beautifully as a statement daybed. Placed near full-height windows or within a sun-drenched alcove, it transforms the space into a serene personal retreat.

Styling Tips:

  • Minimalist Surroundings: Complement the Flap Sofa with minimalist design elements to allow its unique geometry to take center stage. Choose low-profile coffee tables in glass or matte finishes and avoid bulky accessories.
  • Layered Lighting: Use a mix of floor lamps and recessed lighting to highlight the sofa’s articulated angles and dynamic contours. Directional spotlights or sculptural floor lamps positioned behind the sofa can subtly dramatize its form.
  • Textural Contrast: Pair the sofa with soft, natural textures like handwoven rugs, brushed concrete floors, or suede accent pillows in muted tones. This contrast enhances the sofa’s sleek upholstery and adds a layer of tactile sophistication.
  • Curated Art & Decor: Position curated artwork or an abstract sculpture nearby to complement the Flap Sofa’s artistic essence. Neutral-toned walls allow both the sofa and surrounding décor to resonate with understated elegance.

From Our Designers

A Curated Styling Tip for Special Effect

Our designers recommend pairing the Flap Sofa with the Regenbogen Large Vase by Fundamental Berlin Regenbogen Large vase. This sculptural crystal vase, hand-cut and polished by master artisans, features a diachronic film that reflects a spectrum of vibrant colors—making it an ideal accent to echo the dynamic geometry of the Flap Sofa. Its angular silhouette and shimmering surface introduce a touch of visual drama without competing for attention, allowing the sofa’s fluid form to remain the hero while subtly enhancing the room’s artistic harmony.

FAQ

The Flap Sofa by Edra is not merely a place to sit—it’s a sculptural installation that redefines conventional furniture norms. Designed by Francesco Binfaré, it integrates form, function, and emotion. Its minimalist base contrasts with nine independently adjustable segments, offering an ever-changing composition that’s as much visual art as it is luxurious comfort.

To highlight its sculptural integrity, the Flap Sofa should be floated within the space rather than placed against a wall. It thrives in open-plan living rooms, penthouse lounges, or modern galleries where its adjustable elements can be appreciated from multiple angles. Ample space around the piece ensures its geometry remains the visual anchor of the room.

Absolutely. The Flap Sofa’s dynamic design supports a variety of uses—from an intimate daybed for two to a collaborative seating platform for guests. Each flap reclines to six different angles, allowing configurations for solo relaxation, reading, social interaction, or even as a semi-horizontal workspace.

To maintain the Flap Sofa’s pristine appearance, regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth is recommended. For deeper cleaning, use a fabric-safe upholstery cleaner as advised in the product’s care guide. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or high-humidity areas to preserve the fabric’s integrity and mechanical precision of the adjustable flaps.

The Flap Sofa features a high-resilience internal structure with premium padding and upholstery selected for both tactile richness and long-term performance. Each reclining flap is engineered for smooth, repeated movement, ensuring both durability and a seamless user experience for years to come.

We invite you to visit Maison Sia or schedule a virtual consultation to explore fabric options, view swatches, and receive styling advice tailored to your space.
