The One Chair is a lightweight stacking chair expressing a feathery and elegantly curved stylistic language. The combination of design and construction is innovative. In spite of its minimum dimensions and a weight of only 4,044 grammes it is very robust. The seat and the backrest consist of a monolithically cast glass-filled nylon shell. The four identical legs are made of rustproof steel. The plastic shell and the steel legs are connected with a conical joint. Thanks to a simple coding technique they are always assembled correctly. The seat shell is the primary structural element that holds the four legs in place, each of which is fixed into position with a screw. One Chair offers comfortable seating and an agreeable, resilient backrest. 

二、Ottovolante Living and Bedroom Furniture

The living and bedroom furniture of the Italian Ottovolante product family has a unique design; its form is an eye-catcher. Characteristic in particular are the double base surfaces above one another with their exceptional appearance reminiscent of an air cushion. They give the models, which are otherwise definitely striving for the sententiousness of modern upholstered furniture, a playful and invitational attitude. The result is a new architecture of seating furniture setting distinctive, yet not dominant, accents in respective rooms and spaces. 

三、Pumpkin Seating Furniture

When designing Pumpkin it was not at all the intention to create a chair with four legs. The flexibility of its forms appears as emancipation from traditional style and square shaping. With its soft and naturally sensual forms this seating chair is a piece of furniture that invitingly accommodates anybody. The prevailing demand to model a seat that adapts to the body and not the other way round was one basic idea when shaping Pumpkin. Its stylistic language reminds of a huge pumpkin and its protective paring. The product range comprises one armchair with low or high backrest, a two- and a three-seater as well as a stool. It wants to follow the revolutionary style initiated by Pierre Paulin at the end of the 1950s. The furnishing of Georges Pompidou’s private rooms in the Élysée Palace in 1971 became his work with the most prominent media attention. 

四、Sen  Armchair, Sofa

The effect of the Sen armchair and sofa originates in the convergence of opposites: the opulent upholstery seems to float in the geometric frame. Lines and volume, hard and soft, heavy and lightweight are clearly separated from each other and yet, together they have a unique effect. When they are combined they present an image of timeless elegance.

五、States Sofa

States is a sofa especially designed for small rooms, with dimensions that take up little space, side- and backrests merging into one space-saving unit, and a visual language that never appears dominant. Characteristic for the aesthetics is a design that, in principle, intends to do away with the 90-degree angle. States is part of a seating system, which counters the old-established static furniture concepts with adaptable, flexible scenarios. All elements can be moved and combined as one may see fit. States provides a comfortable and relaxed seating experience without voluminous arrangements while at the same time rendering a generous flair to small spaces as well.

六、StingrayRocking Chair Schaukelstuhl

The Stingray rocking chair resembles gentle sea waves. Its appearance is an interesting new interpretation of the plastic version of the curved chair created in 2002 as it is now manufactured in veneer. The chair is available, for example, in African Macassar ebony wood, whose grains emphasise the organic form of the Stingray, whose shape was inspired by the sea. The new version of the Stingray is also available with a cushion that invites to extend the hours of comfortable relaxation. Due to the curves of this chair the cushion is made of several pieces. Here, as well, the inspiration from the sea is evident. The veneer and the comfortable cushion lend the Stingray a trendy look establishing new possibilities for a modern, yet cosy interior.

七、Tetra Hocker

With its flowing form and swinging curves, inspired by Mies van der Rohe’s MR 10 chair, the design of the Tetra stool captures the abstract essence of the natural world. In the dark-grey version in particular, this stool emulates the haptics of a stone surface. The solid and environmentally friendly piece of furniture is amazingly versatile in terms of functionality; it works as a stool in any of its four positions. It is manufactured using the innovative rotomoulding production process. With this technique, the manufacturer managed, after many experiments, to build the Tetra using recyclable polyethylene pellets. The mouldable material is made from polyethylene plastic bags and used scrap plastic, which is processed in special washing machines. In this way, the final product features an interesting structure, characterised by flexibility and durability. The Tetra is stackable, easily transportable, and available in many opaque and translucent colours. The weatherproof stool with the measurements 50 x 56 x 51 cm can be flexibly and multifunctionally used both in- and outdoors.
