Arflex
Marenco Outdoor Sofa
Mario Marenco's most recognisable furniture piece designed in 1970, the self-titled Marenco sofa perfectly sums up Arflex's ambition to modernise production and design itself. The indoor sofa system was added to by Arflex in 2020 with a collection for the outdoors too. The characteristic curves of Marenco's sculptural cushions that define the Italian classic are only one side of the sofa's innovative design. Its concealed metal frame in Fiat red cleverly supports the seat and armrest that are designed to slip on and off with ease, giving the collection both comfort and practicality.

Mario Marenco
Mario Marenco (1933-2019) was born in Foggia and graduated in architecture in Naples in 1957, followed by research grants in Stockholm and Chicago. In 1960 he opened his own architecture and design studio in Rome, and he went on to design for Arflex, Artemide and B&B Italia, as well as exhibition stands for Fiat, Lancia and Alfa Romeo.
His Marenco sofa for Arflex dates from 1970 and remains an icon of Italian design. The same year he found fame as a comedian, co-writing and performing the radio show Alto gradimento.
