Ethimo and Elena Salmistraro present Loop, a sofa that merges Ethimo’s expertise in outdoor design with Elena Salmistraro’s visionary creativity, transforming the concept of seating into a fluid, dynamic ‘sculpture’ open to multiple interpretations.
Loop is conceived as an element that goes beyond the traditional function of seating: a fluid system of volumes that intertwine to create continuous forms, with no beginning or end. Its rhythm is natural and welcoming, designed to connect people and space in a spontaneous way. Accessible from every side, Loop eliminates the distinction between front and back and invites a free, fluid conviviality, where space is experienced in a spontaneous and shared way. “Loop was conceived as an organism rather than a simple piece of furniture. It is an outdoor sofa with a fluid body, built through organic volumes that intertwine and support one another, creating a continuous, natural, almost instinctive movement,” says Elena Salmistraro.
