Molteni&C’s Corsetto armchair by Cristián Mohaded wraps a soft, pillowy seat in a leather belt, leaning hard into the whole “comfort and protection” thing without getting precious about it.

That belt detail is doing a lot, but I kind of like it because it reads like a real constraint, not just decoration. It reminds me of tying a cushion to a frame—soft inside, structure outside, and you can “see” how it’s held together.
