Olympia
Designed by Corrado Dotti, Olympia is a modular seating system that embodies comfort and versatility
Olympia, the new sofa designed by Corrado Dotti for Chateau d’Ax, draws inspiration from two sources: the ancient city on Mount Olympus and the famous Parisian theater, the first music hall in the French capital.
Both references evoke grandeur, visual impact, and an aesthetic that expresses Italian-style comfort, relaxation, and elegance through the language of design.
The enveloping seat and backrests are an ode to organic shapes, while the armrests follow a fluid line reminiscent of petals. The defining features of Olympia are its comfort and versatility—perfectly in tune with contemporary lifestyle trends, where living areas increasingly merge with workspaces within the home.
The pronounced folds of the leather lend a distinctive character, conveying a sense of refined softness that is visually striking even before being experienced. Each design element is highlighted by a pair of tethers, visible even from the back, which emphasize the sofa’s comfort. Free of mechanisms, Olympia’s lines are soft and curved, enhanced by tone-on-tone double stitching that adds to its aesthetic appeal. Every seat is fully upholstered on all sides, making it ideal even as a stand-alone piece.
Olympia is designed to appeal to a wide audience—true to Chateau d’Ax’s heritage, yet with its gaze firmly set on contemporary living.
