Lilum 50 by Antonio Citterio

In a new limited-edition release, the Lilum 50 sofa by Antonio Citterio for Maxalto transforms furniture into an abstract canvas.

Upholstered in a fine linen developed exclusively for the collection, the fabric is rendered — through advanced reproduction technology — as a painterly surface for Dutch artist Patrick van Riemsdijk. His expressive brushwork introduces a lyrical counterpoint to the sofa’s softly rounded, restrained form.

The result is a refined synthesis of art and furniture that reflects Maxalto’s enduring design ethos. Each piece in the Lilum 50 collection is issued with a certificate of authenticity signed by Citterio and marked with its individual limited-edition number, underscoring the singular character of every sofa.

Painterly brushwork meets sculptural form — where furniture becomes an abstract canvas.

The limited-edition Lilum 50 sofa by Patrick van Riemsdijk and Antonio Citterio for Maxalto is available in New Zealand from Matisse.
