Mississippi modular sofa by Pierre Paulin for Artifort, 1960s

The Mississippi sofa (1965), designed by the French master Pierre Paulin for Artifort, is a true classic of design. Its modular and undulating shape captures the rhythm of a winding river, transforming any room into a space of elegance and movement. Made from a sturdy steel frame, high-quality foam, and luxurious upholstery, the Mississippi combines comfort with timeless art. Whether as a striking centrepiece or a fluid arrangement along a wall, its organic curves invite both relaxation and admiration. It was reupholstered in Pierre Frey fabric a few years ago.
