Rigorous lines outside, generous softness inside: a system you build to fit your living room.
Serenity, simplicity, materiality, modularity: these are the words Arflex uses for the Rendez-Vous, the sofa system designed by Mauro Lipparini. A sofa with a tidy outline that turns soft and welcoming inside. Here at Mariani, official Arflex retailers in Milan and Arluno, we help you find the right composition for your space.

The Rendez-Vous was born in 2016 from a design by Mauro Lipparini for Arflex. In the company's words, the idea is to pair an overall formal rigour with the exuberance of the inner softness, as if the sofa were trying to hug and hold the body in the pleasure of comfort.
Mauro Lipparini graduated in architecture from the University of Florence in 1980, where he later taught. He works across industrial design, architecture and interiors: home and office furniture, textiles, corporate headquarters, showrooms, shops and exhibitions, for European and Japanese companies.
His language has been called natural minimalism: essential forms and clean lines, warmed by colour, texture and a sense of pleasure. The Rendez-Vous shows it clearly: a rigorous outline and a soft seat living in the same piece.
The Rendez-Vous is a true modular system and comes in two versions, D.95 and D.120: the latter is the deeper one, for those who like to sit with their legs tucked up or stretch out. Each has its own sofas, units and accessories.
From the straight sofa to compositions with corner and island units: the versions photographed by Arflex. You choose the upholstery in our showroom, from the full range of samples.
