Modern Sofas in Leather & Fabric, Made to Measure
Explore VAMA modern sofas, handcrafted in Tuscany for contemporary living spaces. The collection includes minimalist linear sofas, high-leg designs, modern leather sofas, soft removable-cover fabric models, electric recliners and sofas with extendable sliding seats. Our made-to-order models can be customized in upholstery, colour, dimensions and comfort details, while already configured pieces are described with their exact specifications. For layouts that need an L-shape or chaise, see our corner sofas.
How to Choose a Modern Sofa
A modern sofa is not defined by one shape. The practical difference between models often comes from seat depth, back height, foot design and the way comfort can be adjusted. Cruise and Casablanca use adjustable headrests with a lighter steel-footed profile, Gold focuses on electric reclining, Fog extends the seat depth with sliding seats, while Zoe uses removable fabric covers and goose-down cushions for a softer sit.
Modern leather sofas
Leather gives contemporary shapes a clean, defined surface and works particularly well with metal feet and geometric profiles. Cruise and New Zealand offer two very different interpretations: Cruise is more linear and restrained, while New Zealand uses sculptural volumes and contrasting upholstery areas. Selected models can also be configured in fabric.
Electric recliner sofas and adjustable headrests
If adjustable comfort is the priority, compare the movement rather than only the external size. Gold uses an electric recliner mechanism and can be equipped with a rechargeable battery, while Cruise and Casablanca use manually adjustable headrests to change back support without turning the sofa into a bulky traditional recliner.
Sliding-seat sofas for deeper lounging
Fog keeps a standard 108 cm overall depth with the seats closed, then extends to 146 cm when the sliding seats are opened. This type of mechanism is useful when you want a normal living-room footprint during the day and a much deeper seat when relaxing.
High-leg and minimalist modern sofas
High feet leave more floor visible and make a sofa appear lighter in the room. Casablanca uses polished steel legs, while Tokyo uses 13 cm black satin-finished steel feet and a simple linear profile. Tokyo can also be produced to non-standard widths when the room requires a more precise fit.
Made-to-measure modern sofas
For configurable models, personalization can include overall dimensions, leather or fabric, colour, seat feel, feet and other construction details. Special dimensions are checked against the proportions and mechanisms of the selected model before production. This is especially important for recliners and sliding-seat sofas, where internal movement needs to remain technically correct.

Frequently Asked Questions About Modern Sofas
Can VAMA modern sofas be made to measure?
Many made-to-order models can be adapted in width, upholstery, colour and other details. The possible dimensional changes depend on the structure and, where present, on recliner or sliding-seat mechanisms.
What is the difference between an electric recliner and a sliding-seat sofa?
An electric recliner changes the sitting position using a powered mechanism, typically extending leg support. A sliding-seat sofa increases seat depth by moving the seat forward, creating a deeper lounging surface.
Are modern sofas available in both leather and fabric?
Yes, several configurable models can be ordered in leather or fabric. Some fabric configurations also use removable covers; the exact construction is specified on each product page.
Which modern sofa is best for a lighter visual look?
High-leg models such as Casablanca and Tokyo leave more floor visible beneath the sofa and create a lighter silhouette than designs with low or concealed feet.
