In order to follow with congruence the historical path of contamination between the serial world of the interior design industry and art’s creative inspiration, Gufram presents a Summertime Sofa; its author is the artist Valerio Berruti.
The result of this encounter between design and art is a sofa of ample and deep seating space, ideal for seating three people, and bearing the signs, the codes and the branding of Valerio Berruti’s painting.
The name of this sofa produced in 250 numbered pieces each version is Summertime – which evokes the title of one of the most famous songs by George Gershwin.
The first verse of the introductory text for Gufram and Valerio Berruti becomes the subtitle of the piece “…and living it easy”, thus creating a pun with the term “living”, which is not stressed, as it happens, on the other hand, in the text of the song: “living” in English, as used to indicate the living room — the couch.
