The sofa joins the Envelope family, which includes the award-winning armchair by designer Ilse Lang. The collection draws inspiration from the simple and uncomplicated wrapping of an envelope, which holds the letter inside, like a hug.
Starting with wide, interwoven leather strips covering a soft and cozy inner layer, the armchair takes shape. Combining robustness and softness, the design evokes memories of the vernacular culture and tanneries of the designer's homeland, Rio Grande do Sul. From the investigation of simple forms to achieve maximum ergonomics, emerges timelessness, which lies both in the quality of the materials and in the sophistication of the production processes.

A 100% Brazilian design brand, we specialize in creating exclusive furniture pieces, each signed by one of 14 renowned designers under the curatorship of Clarissa Schneider.
We value care and delicacy—emotion and meaning. For us, every detail counts: from foam crafted with state-of-the-art machinery and raw materials sourced exclusively from Brazil, to partnerships that celebrate the richness of our cultural heritage.
Our creative process unfolds like a grand symphony, gaining rhythm with each stage—from sketching to sculpting, calendering to stitching, machining to cutting.
If the art of bringing furniture to life is akin to conducting an orchestra—with cutting-edge tools in the hands of a skilled team—then our store is a dance of interiors. Designed by Studio Arthur Casas, it was honored with the prestigious Building of the Year 2025 award.
Every choice contributes to a larger harmony. Volumes, proportions, geometries, and fittings—each element sparks dialogue and evokes a sense of meaningful complementarity.
