It is a sleek and modern design that reflects the aesthetics of the 1990s.

In short, the Hydra Castor sofa is an elegant and functional piece of furniture that embodies Italian design, craftsmanship and know-how.
Luca Scacchetti (1952-2015)
Luca Scacchetti was born in Milan, where he graduated in Architecture. His first works, from the early 80s, were renovations and construction of homes in Lombardy, Switzerland and Germany, although shortly after he also moved to Italy. He is especially recognized for his numerous interior projects, both for homes and offices or exhibitions, in addition to several competitions for public spaces. However, he also worked on the design of furniture, decorative objects and fabrics, including his designs for Poltrona Frau.

Poltrona Frau is an Italian furniture manufacturing company founded in 1912 by Renzo Frau. The company name combines "Poltrona", the Italian word for armchair, and "Frau", the surname of its founder. In 1926 it became an official supplier to the Italian royal family, the Savoy dynasty, and by the 1930s it had become an international status symbol. Its activity is based on the creation of elegant furniture, inspired by tradition but designed with the future in mind, guaranteeing reliability and quality.
