    The band sets the price, not the colour. Each upholstery option covers one or two Arketipo price categories and is priced at the higher of the two. Once you order, we'll go through Arketipo's fabrics and leathers in your band with you and confirm your exact choice before production starts. If you choose one from the lower-priced category, we refund the difference. Pelle B and Pelle Leonardo leathers are available on request.

    About the design

    Whilst rigid in appearance at first glance, Venus is the kind of chair that makes you look twice and ask a simple question, “why hasn’t modern chair design deviated more this way?” It has three legs; they create a solid structure whilst wrapping around the frame and contrasting with the shape of the upholstered elements. Venus is designed to get your attention, do we have it?

    I bought a very nice sofa for an even better price in the TFU design shop. Lovely place to nose around. The guys are super friendly and helpful. They have a very good feeling for style and design. I trust them to refurbish/ decorate my house if I put it up for sale or rental.
