The seats, backrests and arms can be upholstered in all the fabrics and leathers of the INCLASS swatch card or in fabrics supplied by the client. The varied range of bases and structures is available in a wide choice of finishes. This allows for creating an unlimited repertoire of applications in a diversity of projects and spaces. UNNIA collection have been awarded the prestigious design prize: “Design Guild Mark”.
