Italian luxury furniture house Poltrona Frau has introduced the Parka modular seating system, marking its first collaboration with the creative duo Draga & Aurel during Milan Design Week 2024. The collection is part of the brand’s Imagine Collection, which explores the theme Imagine Softness through contemporary reinterpretations of comfort.
Inspired by the iconic parka jacket—an emblem of ’90s streetwear and Mod culture—the Parka sofa series blends protection and plushness with a laid-back, modern attitude. It features low-slung, generously padded forms, a sculptural elliptical backrest that morphs into an armrest, and a design language that resonates with a wide range of interiors.
This collaboration with Draga & Aurel, known for their upcycling ethos and fashion-forward aesthetic, celebrates modularity and individuality. Upholstery options include full Pelle Frau® leather, or a leather-fabric mix, with tone-on-tone stitching to enhance its crafted appeal.
“Poltrona Frau has always embraced external design voices while staying true to its ethos of modern luxury,” said CEO Nicola Coropulis. “The Parka collection reflects aesthetic, ethical, and conceptual evolution in home design.”
With concave and convex seating modules, armrest options, and a focus on personalisation, the Parka system is as bold as it is adaptable—delivering cozy elegance with a statement.
