Ditre Italia is known as a longstanding expert in the upholstered furniture sector. Founded by the De Marchi brothers in 1976, Ditre Italia evolved from an artisan business in San Martino di Colle Umberto to the successful modern furniture company it is today. The brand follows four main principles to produce some of the finest furniture in Italy: unique designs, timeless elegance, tradition, and project-wear. Working in alignment with their principles has allowed them to astonish audiences with their collections year after year, their largest success being their living room collections…
…Among which is their "Flick Flack" sofa. Designed by the talented Anna Von Schewen, this sofa took form following a list of design principles as well as the Scandinavian traditions that render her pieces unique.
Anna Von Schewen pays great attention to the workmanship of her creations and is drawn to the expressive ideas that catch the spirit of Scandinavian tradition. The "Flick Flack" sofa, inspired by the shape of bird nests, includes a cushioned rim that lines the edge of the sofa with adjustable arms and back. This sofa is usually placed in cozy spaces and family rooms because of its loose and comfortable shape.
Having stylish and comfortable furniture is important, but it is also essential to know how to lay it out in your home. Anna Von Schewen offers four ideal compositions for the "Flick Flack" sofa. For a cozy get-together atmosphere, layouts A and D are ideal as they include a corner composed of two rectangular bases and a chamfered square base. For more formal and spacious areas, layouts B and C work best thanks to their long sofa composed of two large rectangular bases.
Besides layout, color needs to be selected wisely with the help of a color mood board. After careful consideration, Anna Von Schewen concludes that Ditre Italia’s "Mood Color" palette is the best suited for the "Flick Flack" sofa. This palette includes colors such as Pool, Pacific Blue, Curry and Denim, Smoke Walnut, Brandy, Cigar and Honey, Dusty Pink, Cherry Blossom, Grasscut, Jasper Green, and Cider.
Ditre Italia understand the principles involved in producing excellent furniture and creating beautiful homes. It may be challenging for individuals outside the furniture and design sector, but you can always refer to these guidelines for a push in the right direction when you need it!
