Spring is the third chapter in a design project which began back in 2002 with Springfield.
A concept sofa, Springfield, which used the idea of solid geometric shapes working with each other while remaining distinct, created a great simple, comfortable and stylish sofa; in 2008 Field was a revisitation of the original design and rendered the individual elements separate; and in 2010 Spring completed the project, maintaining the comfort of a large sofa despite the individual elements being smaller. With covers that can be fully removed, the sofa, like its predecessors, boasts great care to details, and high quality materials and fabrics which come from renewable, and environmentally-friendly sources.
Microcellular polyurethane foam from vegetable oil and polyester fiber on internal wood frame. Feet in black polypropylene. The Spring collection covers are removable.
