Camaleonda Modular Sofa by Mario Bellini for C&B Italia, 1970s

Italian Mid-Century Modern Modular Seating

The iconic Camaleonda sofa by Mario Bellini for C&B Italia is one of the most celebrated designs of the 20th century. First introduced in 1970, the Camaleonda is instantly recognisable for its bold, sculptural tufting and flexible modular system that allows endless seating configurations.

Design innovation by Mario Bellini
The sofa’s distinctive form comes from its generously padded seat and back cushions, connected with Bellini’s innovative system of rings and cables. This creates a sofa that is both architectural and organic, offering comfort and adaptability. Upholstered here in a striking red corduroy velvet, this set embodies the vibrant character of Italian mid-century design.

Collectible mid-century modularity
The Camaleonda has been reissued in recent years, but original 1970s production models remain highly collectible. This example offers the opportunity to own an authentic piece of Italian design history, celebrated by museums and design collectors worldwide. The modular elements can be rearranged to create sofas, chaises, or loungers, adapting to any interior space.
