The
DE SEDE collection, in particular the DS-888 Collina model, reflects a fusion of innovation, functionality and aesthetics that is typical of the brand’s high level of design. The Collina sofa was created by the DE SEDE design team in collaboration with the design collective atelier oï and was presented at the Salone del Mobile in Milan. It is designed as a modular seating landscape that offers elegant, comfortable and functional seating both indoors and outdoors.
de Sede sets seating landscape in motion
At the Salone del Mobile Milano, the Swiss furniture manufacturer is presenting a single, unique creation. Thanks to sophisticated technology, the new DS-888 Collina is a tribute to flexibility. A modular seating landscape that can be used anywhere and takes the interplay of design, functionality and ergonomics to a whole new level.
At the heart of the DS-888 Collina are innovative backrests that can be moved all around thanks to a newly developed and patented functionality. Elegant elements that lie over the backrests serve as headrests. They can be conveniently adjusted in height and adapted to the respective requirements of a dynamic living style. The seating landscape is reminiscent of the rolling hills of the Swiss Alps.
For indoors and outdoors
The DS-888 Collina cuts a fine figure both indoors with various leather qualities and outdoors with countless fabric applications. The high-quality materials and excellent workmanship not only guarantee durability and comfort, but also seamless integration into any room – whether living room, terrace or pool area.
A co-creation that sets standards
The extraordinary seating landscape is the result of a further collaboration between de Sede and the designer collective atelier oï. „With the DS-888 Collina, we wanted to push the boundaries of modular feasibility and create a seating landscape that not only impresses with its versatility, but also with its ergonomics and supreme aesthetics,“ says Monika Walser, CEO of de Sede. The decision to present only a single object at the world’s most important furniture fair this year is a clear commitment, says Walser: „Visitors can expect a unique iconic object that deserves undivided attention.“
