The architectural Torres Sofa finds its inspiration from the Museo Nacional de Antropologia — an iconic building designed by Pedro Ramírez Vázquez in Mexico City.

The sofa’s emphasis on horizontal lines not only nods to the building’s architecture but references the many different artifacts, such as ancient tools and figurines, contained within it as well. Upholstered in a warm ochre bouclé textile, this piece cuts a strong, enigmatic figure.
