The modular Camaleonda sofa set, designed by Mario Bellini for B&B Italia / C&B Italia in 1972, stands as an icon of Italian design from the 1970s. This ensemble comprises six elements: three double seats (each 96 × 96 cm), two single seats (96 × 66 cm each), and one corner module, enabling versatile arrangements. The low-slung profile, gently rounded organic lines, and substantial proportions express the era’s emphasis on comfort, while pronounced, quilted tufting gives the piece its characteristic rhythmic geometry. The set is upholstered in high-quality ivory bouclé wool, with a matte finish and distinctively nubby texture. Visible metal cables and rings are both structural and decorative, affirming the authenticity of Bellini’s original system and allowing for flexible configuration. The sofa set is in very good condition, professionally restored and featuring new upholstery.
The Camaleonda sofa, like Bellini’s other works, reflects the spirit of the 1970s—a period marked by a new openness to arrangement, informal hospitality, and freedom to shape interior landscapes. Its organic, voluminous modules evoke the relaxed pulse of Italian modernism, inviting movement, gatherings, and collective rest. The tactile bouclé, matte and richly textured, tells a story of inviting tactility and a dedication to premium upholstery craft. Brass joining details underscore the project’s individuality and discreetly echo Bellini’s architectural roots.
Perfect for spacious living rooms in a mid-century modern or eclectic collector’s style, the Camaleonda can be paired with low, geometric coffee tables, artwork in minimalist frames, and sculptural floor lamps. The soft, ivory upholstery plays
