Award
XXII Compasso d’Oro ADI
Compasso d’Oro in 2011, the Yale sofa by Jean Marie Massaud was recognised for its innovative vision of an upholstered piece combined with a minimalist structure. The collection includes sofas, armchairs, a bed, and a coffee table, all defined by a formal synthesis that emphasises lightness, achieved through the continuous subtraction of material that does not affect comfort, ensured by sophisticated, enveloping cushions.
The Yale sofa, with its strong and distinctive identity, offers extensive customisation options through a wide range of fabrics, finishes, and colours, making it perfect for any setting, whether residential or contract. This essential elegance, free from any stylistic excess and focused on the essence of the design, is also reflected in Yale Bed and Yale Low Table.
