    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

    When people ask about statement pieces, subtlety is rarely ever discussed, and yet Atlas is perhaps one of the grand expressions of form and style. Atlas aims to solve one of the biggest design questions in furniture, how does one get freedom without compromise? The answer lies in this design, an abundance of isometric shapes softened with different forms gets to the core principle, but Atlas is more. It’s about bringing together different ideas, ones that capture a space and multiple iterations. Structure is a complex mix of thin, large, high and low arms, back cushions, corner units, chaise-lounges and accessories that blend together to create a cosmopolitan design structure, responding to an ever intricate design brief of modern living.

    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.
