introduced at the exclusive glass cube of the mediateca santa teresa, in the heart of the brera design district, the lovethesign ‘rodolfo’ is a modular seating system that embodies italian hospitality. created in partnership with the architect davide negri, the concept is lightweight and movable, making it easy to adapt for family and friends at large parties. it is composed of three types of modules; a steel rod frame, a double folding cushion and a backrest, with the two latter parts made from polyurethane foam.
