In envisioning new styles of living, designer Roberto Monsani imagined solutions to reshape the home, and the Life Modular Sofa — so avant-garde it was never produced in series in Monsani’s day — retains its modern edge. Maintaining its modular and flexible design, today the sofa’s original lucite frame has been elongated and updated with versions in dark stained walnut and black ash for contemporary living ideals. Produced by Acerbis.
Walnut, with its lustrous hue and distinctive grain, stands as an ageless favorite in interior design.

As we highlight eight designs that embrace the timeless material, we also invite you to explore our full collection of walnut craftsmanship here.
The Bungalow Stool, designed by Jamie Durie for Riva 1920, is both inspired by and mimics nature in its organic shapes and use of natural materials.

A stool doesn't have to be simple.
Inspired by the binary star in the northern constellation of Boötes, Izar Brass Dining Table by Anthony Guerrée for De La Espada is a testament to sculptural brilliance.
