Frequently Asked Questions

Who designed the Flexform Groundpiece sofa?

The Groundpiece was designed by Antonio Citterio, one of Italy's most respected industrial designers, whose long collaboration with Flexform spans several decades and numerous defining furniture pieces.

What makes the Groundpiece's silhouette distinctive?

The Groundpiece sits exceptionally close to the floor, with a pronounced horizontal emphasis that gives it a grounded, architectural presence. This low profile is a deliberate compositional choice, not simply an aesthetic one, as it fundamentally alters the perceived scale and atmosphere of a room.

Is the Groundpiece sofa available in custom configurations?

Yes. The Groundpiece is a modular system, allowing architects and designers to compose seating arrangements suited to a wide variety of spatial conditions, from intimate living rooms to large-scale contract environments.

What cushion fill options are available for the Groundpiece?

Flexform offers the Groundpiece with either premium down or Dacron cushion fill. Down provides a softer, more enveloping posture, while Dacron offers greater resilience and a firmer seat profile.

Is the Flexform Groundpiece made to order?

The Groundpiece is produced to order in Italy, with upholstery, configuration, and finish selected at the time of specification. Lead times vary and are confirmed at the point of order.
