Dezeen Showroom: leather straps peek out from below the plush upholstery of the Gregory sofa, designed by Antonio Citterio for Italian furniture brand Flexform.

The straps form the webbing that holds up the Gregory sofa's seat cushions and criss-cross its metal base, making for a rich interplay of different textures.

Crafted from cowhide, the straps are rendered in chocolate brown, black or tobacco, and can be matched or contrasted with different metal finishes, which range from shiny chrome to burnished, smoky grey.

"Couture tailoring" distinguishes the seat cushions in the form of French grosgrain piping, while the backrest and bolster cushions are filled with goose down to amp up the cosiness.

The sofa is made up of modular units, which can be arranged and rearranged to fit different spaces, making the design "perfectly poised between classicism and modernity".
