About Flexform
Brothers Romeo, Pietro and Agostino Galimberti founded 'Flexform di Galimberti' in 1959 in Meda, Italy, building on their family's upholstery workshop in Brianza. In 1967 the atelier grew into an industrial facility and became Flexform S.p.A. The company worked with Joe Colombo and Rodolfo Bonetto, and is now run by the third generation of the family, with production still in Italy.
The partnership that defines the brand began when Antonio Citterio, then 23 and still studying architecture at the Politecnico in Milan, approached the company through a school friend, one of the Galimberti children. It has lasted almost fifty years. In 2001 he designed Groundpiece, a sofa with no legs, placed directly on the floor so that it can sit in the middle of a room. His idea, he has said, was that 'a sofa could be somewhere to eat and to work, as well as to relax'. It remains a bestseller.
Why buy Flexform second-hand? Flexform designs prize comfort and proportion over novelty, so a well-kept piece has plenty of life left in it. Buying through HFOC gets you that quality at a price well below retail. Delivery is available across all Australian metros.
