Multichair is a convertible system consisting of two individual elements that can easily turn into a conversation/relaxation chair. This is a product designed with the total attention and full respect that a veritable design icon deserves.
Both cushions have a steel internal structure and are upholstered in polyurethane foam. At the edges, the upholstering stretch fabric is glued to keep its shape unaltered, while leather belts, with the help of pins and buckles, keep the elements together.
Apart from the technical content and the quality of materials, Multichair is also typified by a dual spirit, a trifle serious and somewhat informal, in perfect pop style.
Part of the permanent collection of MoMA and Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
Prolific Italian architect and designer Joe Colombo, born Cesare Colombo, believed in democratic and functional design, meant to be used in many different ways - all for the benefit of the user. Ahead of his time, Colombo relied on emerging material and the latest technologies to design futuristic “machines for living”, many of which have become icons.
Many of his works have been exhibited and included in the most important collections of museums around the world.
B-Line is a company, brainchild of its founder, Giorgio Bordin, that restores life to several historical icons of design on the Italian scenario. Of the products re-edited, some have made history contaminating many facets of art and design, shaping their style and interpreting the mood of the fabulous Sixties and Seventies.
B-Line’s path started therefore in 1999 with the recovery of the original moulds, re-introducing, and at times also revisiting in contemporary style, famous pieces like Joe Colombo’s Boby storage trolley unit. From the very beginning, side by side with its re-editions, B-Line places contemporary furnishing accessories, resulting from collaborations with international designers.
The company pays particular attention to the sustainability and durability of its products, whose materials are entirely made in Italy. B-Line's commitment to the environment involves the entire production process with its finished and semi-finished products regularly subjected to careful quality control procedures.
