Product description

Universal Collection is the name of the new family of seats designed by Jean-Marie Massaud for MDF Italia, which stands out for its impeccably elegant lines and extraordinary ergonomics.
In the chair or armchair version - with wooden or fully upholstered backrest – the three-dimensional back is the focal point of the seat; it consists of two curved elements pressed from a mechanical mould, then coupled and assembled, with a procedure that echoes the refined savoir-faire of the luthier.
The design takes its name, above all, from the disc of the seat, the beating heart of the piece, designed to accommodate different types of bases and backrests, so lending itself over time to the development of an infinite variety of possible configurations.

The project has three cornerstone values:
Sustainability, the concept focuses on the respect of the environment: each component of the seat can be disassembled to facilitate proper recycling.
Comfort, ergonomic research into the design has led to the development of a three-dimensional backrest made of two curved coupled elements, providing unique comfort.
Elegance, an elegant and timeless design that enhances any type of context in which the seat is inserted, whether domestic or contract.

Wooden backrest
The concept was developed from a study on the curving of the wood which led to the definition of an innovative, now patented production system. The 3D effect is obtained from two curved elements, joined and assembled, available in the two finishes brown oak and bleached oak.
The wooden backrest version in bleached oak or brown oak is available with or without bumpers in matching colours .
The bumpers are warmly recommended in the brown oak finish.



Padded backrest
Load-bearing shell in tubular metal padded with polyurethane foam. The upholstery covers the backrest completely and is not removable.

Seat
Seat comprising foam injection moulded polypropylene shell with polyurethane foam rubber. The upholstery covers the seat completely and is not removable.

Bases
Bases with universal disc in die-cast aluminium with micro- embossed finish in white, graphite grey and shadow grey. The disc can be used with two different bases:
4-point-star base in die-cast aluminium with micro-embossed finish in white, graphite grey and shadow grey. 360° swivel.
Fixed version on request.
4-legged oak base with structure in clear lacquered natural solid oak, available in the two finishes brown oak and bleached oak. Fixed version.
