Designed by Claudio Bellini, crafted for effortless everyday ease.
With TOTEMICA, Riva1920 and Claudio Bellini reimagine what it means to truly unwind. Sculpted around the body’s natural rhythm, this chaise longue invites an easy, instinctive kind of rest—one that feels effortless the moment you settle in. Its gentle curves, generous lines, and tactile warmth create a sense of calm that lingers.

Blending refined craftsmanship with a contemporary spirit, TOTEMICA becomes more than a seat—it’s a quiet companion for moments of stillness, shaped with care and an eye for harmony.

TO EXPERIENCE AUTHENTIC WELL-BEING
Designed to welcome the body, TOTEMICA pairs a wooden frame with fabric or leather upholstery that feels both familiar and elevated. The softly inclined seat encourages you to release tension, supported by a pedestal carved from aromatic cedar of Lebanon—smooth, grounding, and beautifully natural.

A cedar-weighted headrest brings comfort exactly where it’s needed, while an optional side table echoes the chaise’s flowing geometry, keeping essentials within a gentle reach. Every detail speaks to Riva1920’s belief in honest materials and craftsmanship that stands the test of time.
