Recuperation, transformation and reinterpretation are the essential concepts of Maison Martin Margiela's aesthetic expression. The Groupe sofa originates from the creative assembly of found objects: chairs, armchairs and couches of different periods and s
tyles, draped with and united by a white linen cover, cut and stitched as to reveal the forms underneath while hiding materials and colours. The result is an extremely expressive form which evokes the lines of extremely familiar elements but which is also
ethereal and timeless.
