“TRAFORO” means “tunnel” in Italian.
Model TRAFORO’s special feature allows you to see through the sofa from one side to the other, which is a typical feature of a tunnel.
Besides the “tunneling-through” feature, Model TRAFORO’s sofa frame is constructed by 23 individual genuine leather upholstered plywood frames.
Each of them slightly variated in shapes so when they are connected with one another, the overall structure appears to be gradually deviated internally.
For the 3C sofa which is constructed by 23 genuine leather-wrap plywood frames, they are connected by a number of solid stainless steel bars to become a free standing structure. The steel bars are wisely placed to be virtual invisible when it’s under regular viewership. At the same time, the fine engineering ensures the stability of the sofa under normal seating.

The most representative item of TRAFORO is got to be the armless 3C sofa when there is no sofa arm (the sofa arm is not much associated with the “tunnel” concept) attached. Of course, if you prefer a conventional sofa with an arm-rest at each side, it’s also available.
The back and seat cushions are not connected to the sofa frame by any means which ensures there is no zipper or velcro that might disrupt Model TRAFORO’s main design elements.
Regarding Model TRAFORO’s arm-rest, there are two options. For Model TRAFORO I (no. 0543A)the arm-rest design ensures that it doesn’t block the view of the “tunnel” from either side of the sofa.
For those of you who are worried that young children might enter the “tunnel” and get stuck, Model TRAFORO II (no. 0543B, as seen on photo below) will be an appropriate choice when it covers a part of the “tunnel entrance” to block any attempt of entry.
That creates a stunning visual impact when you try to see through the sofa (“tunnel”) from one side to the other. This visual effect will be slightly different when the sofa is lighted from different angles.
