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