This sofa belongs to the “Cubo” collection, designed by Jorge Zalszupin for his São Paulo workshop L'Atelier in the early 1970s.
With its name meaning “cube,” the design captures a bold modernist vision: a solid, rectilinear block from which a comfortable seat and backrest appear to be gently carved out.
The sofa’s architectural purity, a seemingly floating base, clean lines, and cubic proportions, reflects Zalszupin’s training as an architect and his commitment to functional, timeless furniture.
