Inspired by the simplicity of the Japanese futon, the Zanotta Shiki Sofa by Damian Williamson is a visual masterpiece. It mimics a thick padded mattress atop an upholstered wood base, adorned with a refined quilted motif. Hand-made toggles in nuanced upholstery shades add a sartorial touch. The design plays with dynamic variations in thickness and height, resembling an urban skyline—a harmonious composition of contrasting materials, finishes, and volumes. It's not just a sofa; it's an artistic exploration of form and cultural influence.

Product Information
Description
Immersed in the graceful minimalism of the Japanese futon, this sofa transforms into a visual poem—a plush mattress seemingly cradled by an upholstered wood base. A sophisticated quilted motif defines the expansive seat cushion, adorned with artisanal toggles in a nuanced spectrum mirroring the upholstery.
This design dances with a dynamic interplay of varying thicknesses and heights, crafting a visual skyline reminiscent of urban architecture. An artistic composition emerges, where contrasting materials, finishes, and volumes harmonize into a symphony of form and texture. This sofa is more than furniture; it's a tactile journey through the elegance of cultural influence and design finesse.

Price Promise
Our Price Promise
We know that price is important. And while all of our designs follow the recommended retail prices (RRP) from our suppliers, we’re determined never to be bested.
It’s why we decided to introduce our Chaplins Price Promise. A guarantee to try and match the price of a branded product should you find it on sale at another authorised UK retailer. While the offer only applies to new designs (rather than clearance, outlets or ex-display) it’s our way of showing that we don’t just offer the best in service or style, but are committed to competitive pricing, too.
Please click on the button below should you wish to query a price. If a competitor's offer isn't immediately apparent online, we may ask you to supply us with a written quotation from the retailer — just to confirm the details.
And remember, Chaplins newsletter subscribers get an exclusive first order discount when they sign up. All of the details of which you can find in the footer below.
Brand Profile
Zanotta
Zanotta's guiding principles of quality, functionality and comfort have transported it seamlessly from 1954 to the present day. Aurelio Zanotta was bolstered by instinct, charisma, and a natural interest in emerging materials and technologies. His unique and, at the time, revolutionary path brought Zanotta into contact with some of the now-legendary icons of Italian design.
