Mid-century modern sofa ‘Costela’, designed by Carlo Hauner and Martin Eisler for Forma in the 1960s. It features a sleek black tubular metal frame, Brazilian hardwood slats and luxurious green leather cushions. The elegant curvature of the wooden slats gives it a sculptural quality, making it a standout design element in any modern or contemporary setting.
Carlo Hauner (1927-1997) and Martin Eisler (1913-1977) were European-born designers who relocated to Brazil after World War II, contributing significantly to the modern Brazilian design movement. Together, they co-founded Forma, a furniture company that became renowned for its innovative use of materials like Brazilian hardwoods and metal frames. Their designs often reflected a vision of a modern utopia, blending form and function with Brazilian natural resources and craftsmanship, making them pioneers of mid-century modern design in South America.
