Marsala - New Icon

Another Chapter in the History of Iconic Design

Design Michel Ducaroy

Designed in 1971 by Michel Ducaroy, the Togo’s creator, Marsala is making a come back in the Ligne Roset collection. With its enveloping silhouette and low seat, this creation has been given a new modern twist thanks to revisited materials.

Refined Design, Exceptional Comfort

With Marsala, Michel Ducaroy imagines a new way to sit. Its enveloping shell and generous cushion invite a relaxed posture, close to the ground.
Faithful to the original design, this creation reflects a vision of comfort that prioritises welcoming shapes and freedom of use.

Marsala collection

Marsala is available as an armchair, medium and large settees, and a footstool. The range also includes the armchair and settees with or without armrests, to adapt to different spaces and lifestyles.

A farsighted reissue

More than fifty years after its creation, Marsala retains its distinctive lines in a contemporary interpretation. Its original Altuglas shell has been replaced by a structure made of brown-stained beech plywood, favouring a more sustainable material. This evolution preserves the model's identity while reflecting a commitment to addressing current challenges.
