Upholstered chair with armrests
This family of seats takes shape from a balance between constructive slenderness and welcoming softness. A thin, slightly curved line traces an airy and uninterrupted silhouette that supports more generous volumes, building a dialogue between precision and comfort. The project is articulated in various interpretations — armchair and footrest, lounge armchair, dining armchair, bench and stools in different sizes — sharing the same formal matrix, declining it in different proportions and postures. The armchair and lounge armchair versions adopt a tubular steel structure, which draws a light and continuous sign in space. These two variants express a more free and enveloping dimension: the backrest support, welcoming in its rendering, extends towards the armrests, progressively tapering. The soft seat cushioning dialogues with the backrest and the architecture of the structure, creating a harmonious balance between lightness and consistency of volumes. The armrests, a natural continuation of the upholstery, descend with a fluid gesture downwards and are defined by a slight curl that introduces a sartorial and three-dimensional accent, strengthening the tactile and visual quality of the whole. In this context, the armchair is accompanied by a coordinated footrest, conceived as a natural extension of the seat, which echoes its structure and finishes, defined by an upholstered element covered and marked by a perimeter profile. The dining version is offered with a wooden frame or a Black Coffee painted or chromed steel rod frame. In this configuration, the backrest offers comfortable support that extends continuously into the armrest. The compact and tidy seat cushion is crossed by a refined front seam that enhances the artisanal craftsmanship. The bench completes the range by reinterpreting its language in a more essential key: a rod structure, in the same finishes, houses an envelope-woven paper cord frame on which a soft cushion rests. This is accompanied by two stools, available in two heights, enriched by a soft padded shell.
