Dexter in Detail

Blok furniture presents a geometric design, which combines the comfort of a traditional upholstered armchair with the minimalist chic of a modern furnishing.

Available in single armchair or a sofa configuration, the design is suited to a number of spaces, whether commercial or residential, thanks to its playful combination of styles.

Two tones, with bright white cushioning set on a luscious chocolate frame accentuates the dichotomy of the modern and traditional and lend lightness to the design.

With a study stainless steel base, Dexter is durable whilst offering the soft comfort required for a residential environment.

The upholstery features deep button-detailing, characteristic of a traditional furnishing, while the right-angled edges evoke a more modern, compact look. 

Allowing clients to select their own leather and fabric colour combinations, Dexter is a highly versatile design for a variety of interiors.
