Fine Form
Designed by Antonio Citterio and Paolo Nava in 1982, the legendary Magister 1982 sofa—a name that translates to maestro in Italian—by Milan-based furniture manufacturer Flexform has reigned supreme for over 35 years as the standard for Italian craftsmanship, unadulterated luxury and ingenious mechanism.
Now thanks to the company’s latest ad campaign shot inside the Triennale di Milano under the lens of Gabriele Basilico, a master of architectural and landscape photography, the unparalleled finesse of the piece once again returns to the spotlight.
In a series of rarefied images, two sofas—one white and one black—are given a powerfully expressive narrative under striking perspective and lighting as if suspended in a quasi-surreal setting, fully showcasing the piece’s minimal aesthetic, uncluttered lines and compact proportions buoyed by its made-in-Italy upholstering available in the finest leather or fabric. A seamless marriage between innovation and tradition, the Magister sofa impresses as a timeless centrepiece in any residential, corporate lobby, luxury lounge or public space.
