The Amama Sofa: Redefining Luxury and Conviviality in Contemporary Italian Design
In the world of high-end furniture, Italian design stands as the undisputed benchmark for innovation, craftsmanship, and emotional depth. We are thrilled to introduce a piece that embodies this legacy perfectly: the Natuzzi Italia Amama Sofa.
More than just a seating arrangement, the Amama is a “total living” project designed to be the pulsating heart of the modern home. Created by the acclaimed designer Andrea Steidl, this modular island sofa masterfully blends fluid sociality with warm family comfort. Discover how this sophisticated, double-sided design can transform your living area into a versatile, luxurious, and inviting sanctuary.


A Palindrome of Form: The Philosophy Behind the Amama Design
The name Amama, a term that evokes the maternal figure in various African languages, is a thoughtful palindrome—symmetrical in both sound and form. This symmetry is the foundational concept for the sofa’s signature feature: its double-sided island configuration.
The Vision of Andrea Steidl
Designer Andrea Steidl, known for his nuanced approach to convivial spaces, has crafted the Amama to challenge the traditional sofa placement. By positioning it in the center of the room, it invites conversation and interaction from every angle, dissolving the barrier between guests and hosts.
- Island Concept: Functions as a sculptural focal point, providing a complete, 360-degree aesthetic.
- Modular Freedom: Its extensive modularity, with fully upholstered components, allows for limitless, bespoke configurations—from intimate seating clusters to grand, sprawling sectional arrangements. Each module can stand alone, providing unparalleled spatial freedom.

The Natuzzi Standard: Premium Comfort, Enduring Quality
Natuzzi Italia’s commitment to the Apulian tradition of high-end upholstery is evident in every detail of the Amama sofa. The choice of materials and the subtle engineering of comfort define its luxury status.
Anatomy of Superior Comfort
The Amama achieves its superior comfort through an intelligent structure that is both supportive and enveloping:
- Dual-Density Cushioning: Thin, slightly firmer seat cushions rest upon a softer base, a juxtaposition that ensures both robust support and enveloping relaxation.
- High-Quality Padding: Utilizes certified, high-density polyurethane foam, a layer of Memory Foam to relieve pressure points, and a luxurious feather-filled topper for supreme softness.
- Premium Upholstery: Available in the finest selection of Natuzzi’s exquisite Italian leathers (such as category 30 Stromboli) and exclusive fabrics, ensuring a rich tactile experience and long-lasting durability.
Key Feature: The design includes options for integrated complements, such as back consoles in glossy lacquered wood fiber (available in Teal or Praline), seamlessly blending furniture and architecture.


Integrating the Amama: A Statement of Contemporary Elegance
The Amama sofa is the ideal choice for affluent homeowners and interior designers seeking a distinctive, modern focal point. Its clean, elegant silhouette allows it to adapt to diverse high-end interiors.
- For Large Spaces: Maximize the impact of the modular island design. Pair a double-sided composition with an oversized, custom rug to anchor the space and define the convivial zone.
- For Flexible Living: Utilize the separate, fully-finished modules to create adaptable zones—a long L-shape for cinema viewing, or two opposing sections for a formal salon setting.
- Styling Tip: Emphasize the sofa’s low-profile and generous seating with minimal, architecturally-inspired accessories and subtle, recessed lighting to highlight the rich texture of the upholstery.
