Apollo is a new range of upholstered furniture designed for Maxalto by Antonio Citterio. The collection is composed of three sofa types, united by pleasantly curved but rigorous lines, which distinguishes each element and creates a harmony between curves and linear forms. In its fluid shape, where the corners seem designed to accommodate the body, geometry becomes comfort with Apollo. At first glance, the upholstery of the seat and cushions, the backrest height, the lack of feet, and the generous seat depth are the elements that make Apollo welcoming and appealing.

Linear sofa in two sizes, curved sofa, sofa with chaise longue, dormeuse and swivel armchair: these are the different elements that make up this seating collection with its distinct personality. They all have pleasantly curved but rigorous form, creating a very harmonious balanced aesthetic. The backrest design, seat depth, contoured shapes and generous padding are all elements that make Apollo extremely welcoming and comfortable. A rich selection of upholstery includes a wide range of fine fabrics and leathers.

Geometric volumes raised off the floor and soft clean rigorous lines are the distinctive characteristics of Aurae sofas. This collection offers a high level of formal elegance, with linear seating in five dimensions with a generous depth (widths cm. 210-250-290-330-370 x depth cm.105), completed by soft backrest cushions to guarantee maximumcomfort. Carefully crafted tailored details on exclusive fabric upholstery are embellished with a faux leather trimthat defines the shape. In addition to fabric upholstery, leather covers with profile seams are available.

The Caratos range has grown and is ever expanding - providing a rich collection of ideas for the most diverse environments. The common thread of each piece is their recognisable die-cast aluminium base. In addition to the chairs and armchairs presented in 2017, Caratos presents a small armchair with armrest, an armchair, a tub armchair, two stools with swivel seats, a bench, an ottoman and a coffee table. The graphite and amber metal frames are accompanied by blue, amaranth, and cream painting, which complement the fabric covers.

Chairs in two versions, armchairs, ottomans and coffee tables are the new proposals that extend the Caratos series launched last year. These new items both reflect and strengthen the original designs’ essential features while softening them by introducing embracing shapes. The light die-cast graphite or amber painted aluminium structure is retained, while padded backrests contribute to the formation of the armrests, creating seating with no postural restrictions at all, encouraging conversation and relations between neighbours.

Caratos is the new chair distinguished by the elegance of its basic, geometric frame, with closely calibrated thickness and detailed, made of graphite painted or amber painted die-cast aluminium. This chair is definitely light, not just because of its essential and linear design, but also for its low weight and easy handling. The seat and back use structural panels of plastic material placed on a polyurethane layer, then covered with leather.

Astrum is the new table collection, rectangular, round and oval, distinguished by the special “sawhorse” base-frame. The frame is made of a single die-cast aluminium support with graphite or amber painted finish that, based on the table shape, is composed of two or three elements connected by a crosspiece and forming the base-frame for rectangular tables (width cm 100 and three lengths cm 230, 280 and 340), while three elements connected at the base of a steel ring establish the support for round tables (diameter cm 165 and 200).

The Nidus collection of upholstered furniture was inspired by the precise need to create a series of formal proposals with a relaxed feel, for moments of socialising and conversation in a harmonious, relaxed setting. Antonio Citterio has achieved this objective by paying great attention to structural details like the embracing shape of the curved sofas, available in two sizes. Together with the absence of arms and the high back, this solution makes it possible to bring people together in a fresh, relaxed and unusual way.

The new Maxalto Dike bed stands out for its unusually-sized headboard which is a distinctive element that creates a new furniture category. Antonio Citterio imagined two panels each 2 meters high and 125 cm wide, ending with two mobile elements, anchored by an elegant full-height hinge. This headboard becomes a theatrical backdrop or a structural element which is made even more sophisticated by the upholstery.
