We look forward to seeing you at Maison & Objet 2024, one of the unmissable events in the design industry, which will take place from January 18 to 22, 2024. Sector Today: Hall 6 | Stand I4-J3T
In line with the theme proposed for the 30th anniversary of the fair "Tech Eden", we will showcase our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and design through three new collections and some of the most awarded pieces from our current catalog, a symbol of a successful fusion of technology and tradition.
The Seine capital thus becomes the perfect setting for the official launch of our new proposals. Inspired by the beauty of nature, sculptural art, and contemporary architecture, the new designs incorporate eco-friendly materials and cutting-edge technology to create a balance between aesthetics and functionality. A new beginning where elegance meets sustainability and innovation becomes art.
Legacy
With a purely contemporary aesthetic, Legacy presents a set of outdoor furniture that can be integrated into any interior project. "It is versatile and precise," says Ruiz. "The intention with it was to give multiple answers and make it easier for the interior designer or architect to create numerous compositions, both outdoors and indoors. Its appearance is meticulous, and it manages to create sophisticated environments with either of its two lines: Legacy Essence and Legacy Woven.
All the pieces in the collection are made with a die-cast aluminum structure that incorporates different materials in the backs and armrests, resulting in two versions with their own personality. Legacy Essence is characterized by its simplicity and lightness, as well as its pure minimalist design with an exposed aluminum frame. Legacy Woven, on the other hand, has the peculiarity that its aluminum structure works as a frame for the design of a carefully studied rope weave. Both versions offer customization options for the armrests and seat front. The collection is completed by a selection of tables in various finishes: porcelain, HPL or aluminum.
Kubik
With a clear and bold line in its design, Kubik is an ode to functionality, beauty and comfort. Its balance and precision immerses us in a visual experience of clean, carefully studied lines that evoke a sense of solidity and harmony. "The starting point for this collection was the new material TechTeak - recycled and recyclable - developed by POINT, which has a surprisingly similar appearance to teak, but is maintenance-free and highly resistant to impact," says Gabriel Teixidó. "When we designed Kubik, we wanted to meet two essential challenges: to guarantee outdoor durability and to offer an ecological answer. Unlike other collections, in this one it was the characteristics of the material itself that determined the final design".
Neck
In collaboration with the award-winning Milanese studio Meneghello Paolelli, we present two sculptural table legs called Neck. "The starting point was the bistro table, which has very defined ergonomic limits. The challenge was to find a distinctive detail within these parameters," say Sandro and Marco. Neck is a neutral and versatile collection designed for any space, especially contract and outdoor contexts. "It had to be pieces with standard sizes and flexibility of use. Neck's personality lies in its base, which gives the piece a distinctive touch, but in a discreet and subtle way, being very compact and with a perfectly studied diameter from an ergonomic and visual point of view".
Paralel
Designed by Gabriel Teixidó this collection is set to become a classic. As its creator himself explains, “its characteristic element, wood, is a living element that connects well with people and gives it warmth”. Robust yet soft, its chairs, armchairs, sofas and tables combine Indonesian teak wood (from carefully managed forests) and synthetic rope. There are a total of fourteen pieces, also including a sun lounger, a side table and an extendible table. They are designed for gardens, terraces or porches, integrating easily into indoor spaces too. “It’s a human collection that fits perfectly into natural surroundings”, says Teixidó.
Origin
Origin looks like a simple collection, and it is. In fact, that’s the intention behind its design and is its defining feature because, despite what one may think, simple, straightforward pieces are the most difficult thing to design”, says Mario Ruiz. Faithful to the idea of “less is more” coined by the architect Mies van der Rohe, one of the fathers of modern architecture, the designer demonstrates with a few simple lines that a discreet gesture can go a long way. The collection consists of tables, sofas, loungers, armchairs, and chairs, all of which can be stacked. The structure of all the pieces is made from powder painted aluminium finished. This material was chosen for its durability and because it is 100% recyclable at the end of its useful life.
City
Designed by Christophe Pillet, this collection is a contemporary take on the art of Mediterranean living, which is unconnected to time. It is a universe where the sun and the earth meet. Its main feature is a powder painted aluminium structure with teak arms and plump, comfortable cushions. These pieces create a composition of great comfort and harmony. The seats in the collection, an armchair, a double sofa and a triple sofa, exude classicism and elegance, and their cushions can be customised in terms of both prints and colours. The collection is complemented by four tables: two coffee tables and two corner tables.
