Designers will appreciate the quality and sustainable attributes of the new collection. Materials include responsibly sourced hardwood and high-density foam for continuous comfort over time. The Lounge Collection is manufactured with 90% hydraulic power. Also, we minimize waste by boxing on demand and using a machine that ensures little to no waste when cutting fabric.

Soothing neutrals, soft or vibrant colors, and versatile textures are available throughout the Collection with more than 40 upholsteries, a variety of paints, and ample base finishes. See pricelist  for specification choices.
