B&B Italia Bend Modular Sofa Configuration BS020

Manufacturer: B&B Italia

Designer: Patricia Urquiola 2010

This piece is an original licensed B&B Italia piece.

Patricia Urquiola's has designed a surprising series of seats that transforms the traditional concept of the sofa. She has entitled the product Bend-Sofa due to its curvaceous albeit monolithic form. It gives the appearance of being manually moulded from a supple material as if by a sculptor. In practice it issues from a study of 3-D models and digital research. Bend Sofa effectively conveys the idea of motion by alternating full and empty spaces. Contrasting stitchings add to to the intrinsic design on the surface. The backrest is irregularly shaped but without compromising comfort.

Curved modules - assembled starting with the seats ottoman and corner elements - form a sofa that breaks out of the usual visual schemes and differentiates from other contemporary pieces on account of its calculated eccentricity. Bend-Sofa offers flexible composition solutions including small linear versions corner solutions or a spectacular (non necessarily domestic) version that can fill a space with double sided seating arrangements becoming the absolute centre of attention with its iconic presence.

Please note that Contrasting Stitching is available on certain fabrics and so please see the information sheet for more details.
