"We set out to create more than just a sofa, we wanted to design a gesture, a suspended moment. We envisioned a space that welcomes without overwhelming, one that gently invites you to slow down. Every curve and volume was shaped to embrace both the body and the eye, turning the home into an emotional refuge. We worked with the idea of a controlled deformation of form, starting from a familiar archetype and gently pushing it into a new softness. The fabric appears to pour over the structure, like a soufflé spilling beyond its mold, where comfort becomes explicit, almost playfully so. Me-Time is our declaration of love for slow time and the quiet pleasure of staying."
- García Cumini

Me-Time is the centerpiece of a domestic landscape where comfort takes the lead and the fabric becomes more than just upholstery, it becomes an invitation. An emotional island, made to be inhabited slowly.

The project takes shape through careful research that blends design, emotion, and memory. Its generous, flowing lines recall familiar archetypes, reinterpreted in a contemporary dimension through a process of controlled deformation: a softness that extends beyond boundaries while remaining balanced, a silhouette seemingly drawn by the passage of time. Its identity lives in the details: armrests that settle naturally into the seat, surfaces shaped by gentle ripples, volumes that melt like fabric draped over a structure. The chaise longue in particular embodies this poetics, with a cushion that extends beyond its formal limits, evoking domestic and sensual imagery, like a cake rising beyond its mould.

García Cumini was born from the fusion of two cultures: the Italian background of Cinzia Cumini and the Spanish heritage of Vicente García Jiménez, where creativity, beauty, and the joy of living are fundamental values. Two complementary personalities, in both work and life, united by the same design philosophy based on the concept of Slow Design. A multidisciplinary approach that is mindful of societal changes while being open to technological innovations and the evolution of production processes. The result is forms and objects designed to endure, maintaining their balance between soul and function, art and technology, intuition and material. On the occasion of the XXII Compasso d'Oro, García Cumini was awarded an Honorable Mention.
