The flower sofa trend has officially bloomed into one of 2025’s most captivating interior movements, and no piece captures its essence quite like Me-Time, the modular sofa designed by García Cumini for Moroso. In an era when floral upholstery is making a triumphant comeback across design circles, this sculptural seating system emerges as the definitive statement piece for those seeking to embrace botanical maximalism without sacrificing contemporary sophistication.
A Garden of Comfort
Me-Time is, at its core, an island of comfort. The result of García Cumini’s signature multidisciplinary approach, the sofa transforms into the focal point of any domestic landscape through its generous proportions and flowing silhouette. When dressed in Moroso’s sumptuous floral bouclé, the piece transcends mere furniture to become something closer to a living garden, frozen mid-bloom in your living room.
The design takes shape through careful research that weaves together design, emotion, and memory. Its generous, flowing lines recall familiar archetypes, reinterpreted in a contemporary dimension through what the designers describe as “controlled deformation.” The result is a softness that extends beyond boundaries while remaining balanced, a silhouette seemingly drawn by the passage of time rather than the precision of industrial manufacturing.
The Details That Define
Me-Time’s identity lives in its details. Armrests settle naturally into the seat with an organic inevitability, surfaces shaped by gentle ripples that mimic the undulating petals of a flower in full bloom. The volumes melt like fabric draped over a structure, creating an effect that feels simultaneously architectural and botanical.
The chaise longue configuration particularly embodies this poetics. Its cushion extends beyond formal limits, evoking domestic and sensual imagery. García Cumini (follow on IG) describes it as “like a cake rising beyond its mould,” a metaphor that captures the controlled excess that makes the flower sofa trend so compelling in contemporary interiors.
When upholstered in Moroso’s floral bouclé, featuring scattered blooms in deep reds, soft blues, and warm yellows against a cream ground, Me-Time becomes the ultimate expression of the trend. The textured fabric adds another dimension to the already sculptural form, creating shadows and highlights that shift throughout the day.
Slow Design Philosophy
García Cumini was born from the fusion of two cultures: the Italian background of Cinzia Cumini and the Spanish heritage of Vicente García Jiménez. For both designers, creativity, beauty, and the joy of living represent fundamental values. Their complementary personalities unite around a shared design philosophy based on the concept of Slow Design.
This multidisciplinary approach remains mindful of societal changes while embracing technological innovations and the evolution of production processes. The result manifests in 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 received an Honourable Mention, cementing their position among contemporary design’s most thoughtful practitioners.
Why Flower Sofas Now
The resurgence of floral upholstery speaks to a broader cultural moment. After years of minimalist restraint and neutral palettes, interiors are embracing pattern, color, and emotional resonance. Floral prints, once dismissed as grandmotherly, now read as confident and joyful, a deliberate choice to bring nature’s abundance indoors.

Me-Time represents the sophisticated end of this spectrum. Unlike vintage florals that can veer toward kitsch, Moroso’s interpretation maintains a contemporary edge through its textured bouclé fabrication and the sofa’s decidedly modern silhouette. The flowers feel almost impressionistic, scattered across the surface like a meadow viewed from above rather than the rigid repeats of traditional chintz.
The Centerpiece Your Space Deserves
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 sofa asks you to pause, to settle in, to let time stretch like its generous cushions.
