In the comfort zone

Edra is a family-owned company that produces quality furniture with a combination of skill, research and technology. Co-founder and vice-president Monica Mazzei tells us more about the business and what’s next in design trends

Valerio Mazzei, Edra founder and president, is sharing his thoughts about its design philosophy: “I like it when someone creates a beautiful object that is also functional because it becomes something that is a pleasure to use. Beauty and functionality, elegance and timelessness must live together.”

This is exactly what Edra furniture represents and the proof, as they say, is in the pudding — or in the case of Edra, in touching and sitting and try- ing out every single piece of furniture. This, Options did, at Space Furniture, where Edra’s classic pieces — including the famous Favela, Vermelha and Getsuen armchairs, the Scringo cabinet, and three of their best-selling sofas, the On the Rocks Standard and Grande Soffice — are on display. Judging by the ‘oohs’ and ‘ahhs’ from the media, the comfort level is way up there and these are names to remember.
