young brazilian designer rafael roldao sent us some images of his ‘riocasaantistress’ sofa which he will present at the salone satellite (part of milan design week 2007). ‘our concept was to develop a non stressing furniture and environment that was inspired by our city of rio de janeiro and a ‘carioca’ moment: the relaxing conversation around beers in the little bars of the city. it is crazy when 8 -10 people share an only one table -that’s our sofa! a special moment for one or two guys, but it’s also a sofa for when there is more of you!’ – rafael roldao
