The perfect synthesis of comfort and elegance originates Romain, a meridienne sofa with a modern taste. The embodying element of this chaise longue is undoubtedly the sophisticated frame in solid ash, obtained from the sustainable forests owned by Porada.
The slightly rounded shape frame adapts harmoniously to the curves of the seat cushion and makes up the supporting armrest. The higher level of comfort of Romain is provided by a practical backrest cushion, as well as by the seat cushion, cover is available in all the fabrics of the collection. Thanks to the possibility of choosing the armrest position, on the right or left side of the meridienne sofa, Romain is suitable for all kinds of needs, while thanks to its versatile design, it can be elegantly placed in both domestic and contract spaces.
