Designed by Jasper Morrison in 1999, the Elan sofa remains one of Cappellini's most considered expressions of restraint. Its proportions are quietly radical: generous cushioned vol umes appear to float above a delicate framework of slender metal legs, placing it among the earliest metal-based seating systems in the modern canon. Morrison's practice is rooted in the conviction that good design should be felt before it is analyzed. The Elan embodies that sensibility, offering genuine comfort without sacrificing precision of line. The silhouette reads as effortless, though it is the product of careful geometric reasoning. Original design: 1999, with the collection later extended to include a pouf and corner modules Frame construction reflecting Morrison's signature economy of material and structure Available in a range of upholstery options to suit both residential and contract contexts Show more
