Ventura by Jean-Marie Massaud

A clean line and an acute attention to material selection and manufacturing has produced a superior collection from Poliform

Ventura by Jean-Marie Massaud

November 19th, 2012


Poliform’s collaboration with French designer, Massaud, has resulted in the quintessential lounge chair – a piece that embodies the very notion of lounging in style.

Enveloping the user comfortably, the fluidity of the chair’s form is at once welcoming and familiar, all at once it exudes a sophisticated air and asserts itself as a study in refinement.  Ventura extends the comfort appeal with the option of high or low-backed model and matching ottoman.

A contemporary use of colour in textile upholstery with contrasting stitching or the use of leather to complement the elegant timber legs – all contribute to the Ventura’s broad appeal for residential and contract use.

The things that really matter, with Melinda Huuk

The Studio* Collaborative’s Melinda Huuk sums it up perfectly when she says, we can rationalise beauty to ourselves but it “needs to be underpinned by purpose and responsibility”. She highlights the Fleur Sofa by King for its responsible manufacture – a quality that takes its beauty beyond skin-deep.
