The Étiquette project comprises a collection of modern design sofas, poufs, footstools and armchairs. All the elements share a structure that draws inspiration from Scandinavian interior design combined with the excellence of Italian craftsmanship. Created by duo GamFratesi, it consists of a matte black steel frame that is rhythmic and coherent, complemented by leather straps and a charcoal-coloured ash bar. Its atypical construction makes it an excellent solution for defining spaces, whether as a single sofa or placed side by side as a corner sofa, also due to its unique posterior view.
