Maralunga Three-Seat Sofa by Vico Magistretti for Cassina

The Maralunga sofa is one of Vico Magistretti’s most recognisable designs for Cassina, known for its combination of soft form and intelligent functionality. At first glance, it appears as a low and relaxed three-seat sofa, but its defining feature is the adjustable backrest system that allows each section to be raised or lowered depending on how it is used.

When the backrests are lifted, they provide proper head and neck support, while in the lowered position the sofa takes on a more casual, lounge-like profile. The mechanism is integrated internally, keeping the overall design clean and easy to use. The armrests are also adjustable, adding further flexibility to the seating experience.

The sofa has a soft, rounded silhouette without sharp edges, giving it a more relaxed character compared to many rigid modernist designs. It is upholstered in black fabric and rests on wooden feet, with generous proportions that still remain practical for a variety of interiors.

What stands out most is its adaptability. The ability to change the seating position makes it a highly functional everyday sofa while maintaining its distinctive design identity.

Length is approximately 96.5 inches, depth around 33.5 inches, height about 28 inches, and seat height approximately 14.6 inches.

Condition is very good vintage. The sofa shows signs of wear consistent with age and use, including minor stains, but presents well overall and remains comfortable and functional.

As with all vintage pieces, signs of use are part of the story. Colors can appear slightly different depending on lighting conditions. If you'd like more details, just let me know.
