Afra is born from the culture of the Italian design interpreting the act of sitting as a design gesture to be rendered essential and distinctive. With Afra, Cono Studio responds to Trussardi Casa’s vision of form that embodies memory and modernity, materiality and lightness, structural rigor and comfort.  

The structure, crafted entirely from black-stained solid ash with a matt finish, reveals advanced joinery and meticulous attention to detail. Its defining feature lies in the backrest: an upholstered band that welcomes the body naturally, leaving the wooden side elements visible and creating a refined two-tone effect–a detail that does not interrupt the purity of the design but rather enhances its material depth. 

Afra asserts a quiet presence–a coherent and understated form that brings atmosphere to a space through its restraint, with the potential to become a timeless classic.
