Papilio Beds 1

Description

Das Design dieses Stuhls ermöglicht sowohl eine aufrechte Sitzposition, als auch eine entspannte Körperstellung, indem man sich auf einen der "Flügel" der Rückenlehne stützt. Die formale Ausgewogenheit ist durch die gleichmäßige Dicke und die kurvenförmige Linienführung im oberen Teil der Sitzschale bedingt, die in ein leichtes Stahlgestell übergeht. Dank des metallischen Reißverschlusses auf der Rückseite, der ein dekoratives Detail darstellt, sind die Stühle abziehbar.

Concept

Simplicity, immediacy and comfort were the concepts guiding the functional development of the entire Papilio series: the Grande Papilio and Piccola Papilio armchairs, the chairs Papilio and Mini Papilio, the Love Papilio sofa and the Papilio bed.

“I want to fall asleep immediately. This is what a bed should make you think about when you look at it. Feeling great.” said the Japanese designer Fukasawa.

The quest for comfort moves to the bedroom and the double bed is the central element. Next to it, a night table holds an open book... “that I will never finish!”
