B&B Italia AC Lounge — Antonio Citterio's answer to the classic sofa. The AC collection is one of B&B Italia's defining lines. Antonio Citterio designed the AC Lounge sofa as part of an entire furniture family that bears his initials. Characteristic of the design is its calm, almost architectural formal language: a clearly defined volume resting on slender cast aluminum legs, creating the optical illusion that the sofa hovers above the floor. The fine button tufting on the back cushions references classic upholstery craftsmanship and translates it into a modern line. The seat height of 39 cm is lower than many current sofas — typical of the Italian lounge tradition, which invites relaxation.
Construction and Materials: At 217 cm wide, the sofa is designed for medium to large living rooms. The depth of 90 cm provides generous seating space. For the AC collection, B&B Italia uses thick aniline leather, which is among the highest quality upholstery materials in the furniture industry and is particularly soft and natural to the touch. The polished cast aluminum legs are a signature element of the AC family and give the sofa its characteristic lightness. The internal frame combines wood and metal for high stability while maintaining a slender silhouette.
Where the B&B Italia AC Lounge works: The AC Lounge functions particularly well in understated interiors, where it can stand out as a calm centerpiece. It harmonizes beautifully with light-colored walls, oak or walnut wooden floors, classic old-building architecture, as well as modern loft aesthetics. Within the B&B Italia world, the AC Lounge formally complements Charles, Andy, and Diesis — Citterio's lines are so minimalist that they can also be combined with other brands and styles.
