A timeless comfort

Inspired by the concept of open design, Roger by Minotti has been released Australia-wide.


Created by Milan-born architect and designer Rodolfo Dordoni, the Roger lounge masters versatility and supports an extensive range of discerning design tastes.

John Engelen, director of dedece, notes, “This unique collaboration between Rodolfo Dordoni and Minotti addresses the evolutionary nature of our interior landscapes through a lounge that balances exceptional modularity and enduring design. dedece is excited to be one of the country’s leading furniture destinations for pieces that offer functional, versatile solutions with a heightened sense of sophistication.”

ROGER by Minotti

Roger is focused on traditional Italian craft yet harbours a chameleonic nature. The multifaceted lounge is suitable for any home. Roger blends in to its surrounds with an entrancing quilting effect and profiled aluminium base. The delicate upholstery and gentle volumes promise comfort to the eyes and body.

“The real innovation of Roger consists in the fact that its design is based on an unprecedented concept,” says designer Rodolfo Dordoni. “It does not simply offer the possibility to personalise a product but aims to provide the elements needed to build it.”

ROGER by Minotti

The seating system is comprised of three elements: Roger Suite, featuring a cushioned seat; Roger Spring, a quilted monobloc seat that consists of an internal insert with pocket springs; and the Roger Spring Sofà an armless configuration with a shallower depth.

All of the elements of Roger can be customised with additional components to suit any individual’s tastes – it’s this level of versatility that makes it a stand-out.

There is a refined sense of purity in Roger’s form, and it promises to leave a lasting impression on anyone that uses it.
