Grande Soffice Sofa
Made by Edra
Designed by Francesco Binfare
Francesco Binfaré has spent decades tracing the boundary between furniture and lived experience, and the Grande Soffice stands among his most considered work for Edra. Its sectional form carries genuine architectural weight, a generous silhouette that reads as linear and composed from a distance, yet yields something far softer on approach.
Beneath the upholstery, Edra's proprietary Gellyfoam technology is layered with goose down, producing a quality of support that is immediate without being rigid, cushioned without losing form. The Smart Cushion system allows each occupant to adjust comfort independently, calibrating the sofa to a personal sense of ease without disturbing the composition as a whole.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Edra's Gellyfoam technology?
Gellyfoam is a proprietary cushioning material developed by Edra that combines a gel-based foam core with exceptional resilience and pressure distribution. When layered with goose down, as in the Grande Soffice, it produces support that adapts to the body while maintaining the sofa's sculptural profile over time.
How do the Smart Cushions on the Grande Soffice work?
The Smart Cushions are adjustable inserts that allow each user to modify the firmness and depth of support in specific sections of the sofa. The adjustment is intuitive and does not require tools, making it practical for households or hospitality settings where comfort preferences vary.
Is the Grande Soffice Sofa fully modular?
Yes. The Grande Soffice is designed as a modular sectional, allowing configurations to be composed for a range of floor plans, from open-plan living rooms to more intimate settings. A designer or Edra specialist can assist in planning the configuration best suited to a specific space.
Who is Francesco Binfaré?
Francesco Binfaré is an Italian designer with a long tenure at Cassina before his prolific collaboration with Edra. His work consistently interrogates comfort as a formal and sensory proposition, producing pieces that are as considered in their geometry as they are in the experience of inhabiting them.
What upholstery options are available for the Grande Soffice?
The Grande Soffice is made to order and available in a range of Edra's curated fabrics and leathers. Specific material and colorway options are best confirmed with a design consultant, as the offering may vary by collection cycle.
