Things we deem ordinary can be a source of inspiration for some people. This B.E.L.T modular sofa by Turri, an Italian furniture company, is a fine example of that. Designed by well-known interior designer Matteo Nunziati, the woven leather belt serves as a design inspiration and has become a symbol of the artisanal tradition of the brand. This signature ‘belt’ detail becomes a defining element in the sofa, transforming it into a contemporary modular piece of furniture with traditional sentiments.
The bulky, rectangular volumes and meticulous details of the sofa, including tailored edges, leather piping, finely selected fabrics, and inviting forms, emphasize the company’s homegrown leather craft and artisanal practices. Designed to offer a warm embrace, comfort has been the foremost priority with plush, padded cushions resting on a light structure that seems to be floating.
Apart from being relaxing furniture, the sofa brings functionality to the living space with its modular design. It incorporates a leather-covered coffee table and additional seating as part of an open and flexible system, making a variety of combinations possible.
“The design of the B.E.L.T brings a subtle yet conspicuous and tactile touch to the living space. The furniture engages in a playful dialogue between usability, comfort, and details, where even the smallest of elements, such as a leather outfitting and a combined coffee table, play a bigger role in ensuring relaxation and quality,” the Turri informs Homecrux.
It’s all in the details, and the B.E.L.T collection is a testament to it. For the sofa, Matteo Nunziati chose a woven leather belt, which hugs the generous amount of the sofa’s armrest, lending it a rather puffy look. This detail gets refined with an elegant personalization of the buckle with the company’s “T” monogram.
I was inspired by the 19th-century art of crafting travel trunks. B.E.L.T. was born from a reflection on the culture of journey and place, and on the evolution of a functional object that can speak the language of elegance: Matteo Nunziati
