The elegance, a feature of Zalszupin designs, on this piece does not come from sculpted wood details or the delicacy and lightness of curves but the well-shaped solid structure: an extremely comfortable sofa carved in a cube.
Zalszupin's work as a designer, entrepreneur, and manager is an example of a transition process from the artisanal production mode, with unique and custom pieces, to serial industrial production. The Polish-born Brazilian designer focused mainly on acquiring and using new technologies and materials to make serial production viable. This piece is a gorgeous example of his inventive mind.
This unrestored Cube sofa is in very good vintage condition, including the original foam – extremely comfortable. Upholstery service is included as a courtesy, using a fabric according to the customer's taste.
