Alberto Rosselli "Confidential" sofa for Saporiti, black leather, Italy, 1972.
Alberto Rosselli designed this model for Saporiti in 1972. The Confidential makes the connection between backrest and seat into a visible formal element — the interlocking cushions that join the sections are not incidental, they define the character of the piece.
The sofa is built around deep, enveloping volumes that sit low to the ground, creating a sense of horizontal mass without heaviness. The junctions between elements read as deliberate sculptural decisions rather than structural necessities, giving the composition a rhythm of its own. In the three-seater, that rhythm becomes particularly clear — volume, pause, volume.
Rosselli co-founded Studio Ponti-Fornaroli-Rosselli alongside Gio Ponti and was among the first Italian designers to bring an ergonomic sensibility to residential furniture. The Confidential is the most direct expression of that approach: a sofa that is genuinely comfortable and genuinely designed at the same time.
