Baxter values the emotion and sensory nature that's at the heart of the brands creations. The Brigitte sofa blends technology and emotion. This new collection is an invitation on a journey. Baxter has worked on comfort with soft, reassuring shapes. The Brigitte sofa has a reassuring size, as if the seat is protecting us. An extremely comfortable, elongated seat characterises the Brigitte sofa. Baxter also worked to include warm, reassuring colours. The organic design of the Brigitte sofa is inspired by nature and all its forms that are reflected in Baxter creations.
Founded in 2007 in the city of Como, Italy, Draga & Aurel is a multidisciplinary design studio working along the spectrum of furniture, textiles and interior design. Draga Obradovic began her career in the fashion industry, working first in London and Milan as a textile designer before finally settling in Como. Aurel K. Basedow graduated from the Accademia di Belle Arti in Milan with a degree in Fine Art, having trained as a carpenter and cabinetmaker.Thanks to their friendly methods, combined with an artist's approach to materials and composition, Draga & Aurel are widely recognised for their clever reinvention of bespoke vintage design pieces. The Salone del Mobile 2009 introduced the duo to the world stage, and partnerships with Italian leather manufacturer Baxter, wallpaper brand Wall&Deco and leading American fashion retailer Anthropologie have taken the duo's field beyond the reinvention of singular vintage pieces.
