BB from Poliform

An out-of-the-box approach to the creation of form and structure has resulted in BB

January 1st, 2013

The BB’s defining characteristic is that its exoskeleton is completely constructed in hide.

The armchair is injected with light expended polyurethane, which gives form to the piece, the leather hide used to contain he material becomes at once a finish, as well as seemingly serving as structure.

A design that looks for the efficiency of the materials that go into creating it, the BB paves the way for a new “aesthetic efficiency”.

Milanese designers Riccardo Blumer and Matteo Borghi designed the chair for Poliform in 2009.

Powerful presence, silent service: Gaggenau’s Dishwasher 400 Series

In design, the concept of absence is particularly powerful – it’s the abundant potential of deliberate non-presence that amplifies the impact of what is. And it is this realm of sophisticated subtraction that Gaggenau’s Dishwasher 400 Series so generously – and quietly – occupies.
