Architonic ID: 1074245
Year of Launch: 2009
Concept
Sofa for exterior environments.
A natural evolution of Wabi, Sabi has an easier and more familiar character and offers the possibility to create corner compositions with different dimensions.
The frame in stainless steel AISI 316 is covered with iroko wood. The back and armrests are hand woven with a silicone profile covered with Paola Lenti’s signature Aquatech, which is this year offered in new natural hues.
The dense and regular weave, from the handwork tradition, and the essential but inviting shape combine to create the informal and familiar nature that is the leit motif of this collection.
Seat and back cushions are produced with materials suited to exterior environments.
