The “Tramonto a New York” sofa by Gaetano Pesce is an iconic piece that artfully captures the essence of New York’s skyline at sunset. The three-seater sofa features padded skyscrapers upholstered in an exclusive fabric with raised textures, creating a play of light and shadow that evokes the reflective windows of actual buildings. Against this urban backdrop, a striking red satin “sun” descends between the buildings, serving as a vibrant focal point that symbolizes the setting sun.

In celebrating craftsmanship and sustainability, this iconic design is reproduced larger than the original archive model in a limited series of 50 pieces. Each sofa in this series is constructed with sustainable materials, a commitment by Cassina LAB to eco-conscious design innovation.
