Marvin Sofa 280

Broad, Quiet, Confident

The Marvin Sofa 280 from Talenti is roughly 110 inches of unhurried proportion. It doesn’t try to be sculptural or showy. Instead, the design relies on clean geometric volumes — wide, low, and grounded — that give it real visual weight without heaviness. The continuous seat stretches across the full width, unbroken, which keeps the silhouette simple and the impression generous. It looks like exactly what it is: a sofa built for long evenings and slow weekends.

What It’s Made Of

The frame combines solid and multi-layered wood, reinforced by a steel perimeter structure. Seat support comes from elastic webbing, which distributes weight evenly and holds up over time. Padding is high-density differentiated polyurethane foam layered with polyester fiber — firm enough to keep its shape, soft enough that nobody wants to get up. Back cushions are filled with polyester fiber for a lighter, more relaxed feel against the body.

Upholstery is available across a wide range of fabric categories — A through E, plus a LUX tier — and in leather, offered in Category F and Category G LUX. The feet are thermoplastic polymer, and the steel perimeter frame comes in three metal finishes: Burnished, Chrome, or Glossy Black. The whole piece ships as a single package, weighing approximately 238 pounds.

Comfort That Doesn’t Need Explaining

Seat height sits at about 17 inches, with cushions adding roughly 8.5 inches more. That puts the seating position low and deep — the kind of comfort that pulls people in and keeps them there. The balance between the denser seat foam and the softer back cushions is deliberate. It supports without stiffness. And the uninterrupted seat means there are no awkward gaps or ridges, just one long, continuous surface.

Where It Belongs

A sofa this size anchors a room. The Marvin works best in open living spaces where it can breathe — set against a wall or floated in the center of a layout. Its quiet lines pair well with contemporary interiors but don’t clash with warmer, more layered rooms either. It’s the kind of piece that sets the tone without competing with everything around it. Function and aesthetics aren’t fighting here. They just coexist.

Built to Stay

Between the reinforced wood-and-steel frame, resilient webbing, and high-density foam, the Talenti Marvin Sofa 280 is engineered for daily use over years. The material choices aren’t decorative decisions — they’re structural ones. And the breadth of upholstery options means the sofa can be re-covered or specified to match spaces as they evolve. It’s not precious. It’s built to be lived on.
