Patricia Urquiola Shanghai Tip Sofa and Tables
A range of modern, sophisticated yet reassuring seating
elements with an understated feeling of luxury in a vaguely Oriental
mood. A new cleanness of subtle lines, of perfect proportions exuding
an innate comfort emphasised by taut textiles and pure, neutral colours
contrasted with bright colourful splashes of cushions and low tables
varnished in plum, emerald green, paprika or lacquer red.
Simple and
minimal in the normal position; supremely comfortable when the
backrest, which has a tilting mechanism, is raised. The chrome-steel or
black painted tube legs are reminiscent of the coloured wooden sticks
used for playing Mikado (or pick-up-sticks, known as Shanghai in
Italian).
The same motif is repeated in the legs of the low tables with
decorated screen-printed or varnished laminate tops that complete the
range. They are designed to match and blend with the sofas while
maintaining a specific, independent identity. Characteristics Seat in
wooden frame covered with stress-resistant polyurethane foam at varied
densities and polyester fiber. Back and armrests, steel, cold foam
injected polyurethane with reclining device, covered with polyester
fiber.
