The Sofa 600 is built from an authentic SEAT 600, one of the most iconic vehicles of Spanish history, and the younger sister of the famous Fiat 500. With the Sofa 600 we aim to recover a piece of history, the nostalgia of the 60’s while turning it into an example of modern and timeless design.
Both our quest to rescue treasures from scrap yards and our love for classic vehicles have always pushed us to have a different perspective with regard to the materials we find on our way. We always try to find a new life for pieces of classic design like this one.
The success of the Scooter Chair motivated us to continue experimenting with furniture. One day, by chance, we met a SEAT 600 enthusiast. He was the organizer of several yearly 600 meetups, so we told him our idea, which he loved. He offered us a SEAT 600 Model D that had been unused for years. With it, we created our first Sofa 600. It was once rotting away to the mercy of mother nature and now enjoys a second chance, all thanks to the philosophy behind upcycling, or creative recycling.
