Sax & the City

 

Sax

Sax is first and foremost, a modular combination: 3 arms (wide, narrow and floating), 3 modules, 3 modules with a sliding mechanism, 1 corner unit, 3 poufs, 2 tables, 4 optional back cushions and 1 decorative cushion. With straight volumes and rounded edges, its singular seams enhance the models shape. The seat and back cushions, which are integrated into the structure, create a piece with clean lines.

Modules with a sliding mechanism in the seat allow it to be extended by up to 220mm. The operation of the mechanism is very simple: you will only need to slightly lift the seat and pull it outwards. This movement releases the brake that prevents involuntary movements in the sitting position. Also, when this mechanism is incorporated into the 204 module (image 5) it makes a 2040 x 920mm bed.

The flexible seat width of these modules makes them suitable to be used as chaises and can be combined with auxiliary back cushions. The head cushion fits the back perfectly, and increases the height by 160mm.

The 2 tables are very versatile. The upholstered table has castors and perfectly fits the gap created by the floating arm. The stainless steel table has a lacquered wood top and is designed so it can come over the seating area.

The poufs have the same measurement as the modules so that, when joined, they serve as a chaise. Its beech wood legs are stained wenge and are hidden, which gives a feeling of weightlessness to the design.

Modules without a sliding mechanism are joined by a ratchet system; or joining sheets (for modules with a mechanism).

Suitable for upholstery in fabric, leather or synthetic leather; it’s covers are fully removable when upholstered in fabric but only the cushions when upholstered in leather or synthetic leather.

City

The city is fully modular design: sofas and armchairs, modules, chaises, terminal modules, corner unit and poufs.

City Compacto version is specially created for the contract market, that is why it has high density cushions.

All City compositions can have stainless steel of wooden legs. The steel legs are 95mm high and make the seat 440mm from the floor. The wooden legs are 35mm high and bring the seating down to 380mm from the floor. Both leg options are specified separately.

The modules are joined by a ratchet system.

City Compacto can be upholstered in fabric, leather or synthetic leather; it’s covers are fully removable when upholstered in fabric but only the cushions when upholstered in leather or synthetic leather.
