Solution on demand

Our strength is coordinated design between our technical office and the client’s designers. The lines of the seat are based on a design by David Chipperfield Architects, which had made precise requests to the participating companies in the bidding phase.

Right from the start, our team of technicians worked alongside the designers to develop the seat, making fine adjustments to the project and specifying the typical features of an ergonomic and well-constructed seat. We satisfied the designers’ requests by creating the prototype they requested, but we also decided to pursue an alternative at the same time and provided a second prototype created by our own designer, Giovanni Baccolini.

Designs and finishes

The curved and harmonious lines of the wood required development of special moulds in a smoked oak finish. The monolithic appearance of the compact sides and backrests give the impression of solidity. Würth red velvet chosen as a sample.

We decided to bring 2 prototypes to the mock-up presentation: the first (photo on the left) corresponding with the designers’ requests and the second based on a design by designer G. Baccolini and our technical office. Both prototypes were assembled with Würth components. Furthermore, in an important detail for the jury, a cross-section of part of the prototype was also presented to show the quality of the interior materials.
