About the Item

Designed by Giulio Iacchetti for Meritalia®, the Newcastle Sofa is a bold, architectural exploration of medieval fortifications reinterpreted through contemporary Italian design and material tactile mastery. Defined by its solid, monolithic presence and surface texturing reminiscent of natural stone, this statement sofa strikes a deliberate balance between fortress-like protection and plush, enveloping domestic comfort. Perfect as a brutalist centerpiece for modern living spaces, the Newcastle transforms the interior into a secure, sculptural sanctuary of relaxation. Newcastle: The Sofa-Fortress How can the protective weight of ancient stone architecture reshape the modern living room? The Newcastle Sofa embodies Giulio Iacchetti’s vision of domestic refuge, merging opposing forces of stasis and dynamism into a singular monolithic silhouette. Its robust geometry evokes the solid masonry of a castle, assembled into reassuring architectural blocks that define and shelter the domestic landscape while offering a deeply welcoming resting experience. Manufacturing Mastery and Subversive Craft Born from the synergy between Giulio Iacchetti and Meritalia’s experimental manufacturing laboratories, the Newcastle Sofa bridges brutalist mass with luxurious seating ergonomics. An internal framework of solid wood and metal supports precision-molded polyurethane foam padding, crowned with a plush goose down topper for supreme softness. Fully upholstered in premium Category P L2301 White leather, the sofa features a sophisticated creased look—a living, top-tier material that evolves gracefully over time, capturing the luminous texture and natural irregularities of carved stone while ensuring lasting luxury and exceptional tactility.
