It is a unique fabric for its tenacity and extensibility, it allowed the designer to give these rounded shapes and tightly sits on the sofa. It is composed of a robust jersey on which a “soft touch” honeycomb wool of contrasting colours is applied. The seat and the back are made of bi-density foam based on a frame of solid fir. For the cushion, the creator has used HR elastic straps for the seat and backrest upholstery, polyurethane foam and varnished wood for the base.
