De Sede DS-266 Adjustable Recliner Seat in Blue Lila Fabric by Stefan Heiliger

About the Item

Geometric form and the simplest function. A seat suddenly turns into a comfortable recliner, DS-266 condenses more than 30 years of work by designer Stefan Heiliger into a highly individual sculpture characterized by a love of geometric forms and the simplest of functions. All it takes is a slight shift in bodyweight, and anyone who was just sitting upright can immediately assume a different position, the parallelogram uncompromisingly heeds your command. A masterfully crafted patchwork look gives this sculptural hybrid its graceful rounding. Stefan Heiliger ranks among Germany’s best-known furniture designers: as the son of Bernhard Heiliger, one of the most important German sculptors of the postwar period, he always knows how to give his furniture designs a sculptural appearance. For more than 30 years, he has been thinking about sitting and for Heiliger, the focus is not just on functionality and ergonomics but on healthy pragmatism, too. This furniture is destined not mainly for museums or galleries, but for serial production and the person who will make him- or herself at home on it. The flowing, curved forms transform his seating furniture into sculptures that are certain to offer pleasure and relaxation for those who sit on them. His creation, DS-266, is not a place to sit or lie, it’s a hybrid that permits both in one: slight shifts in bodyweight or gentle pressure to the backrest always give it the shape and benefits desired. Anyone who takes a closer look at DS-266 will also see a clenched fist in the sitting position that can become transformed into an open hand when used as a recliner. Additional information: Material: Fabric Category: Lila- 7715-741 Type: Upholstery fabric 92% New wool, 8% Nylon Characteristics: Inspired by the similarities of external opposites, LILA reveals a tactile, lively and at the same time multi-faceted surface made of the proven fabric classics of loose bouclé and cooling linen through a regular yarn and irregular slub yarn. LILA has an Ikat-like striped pattern and a relaxed character. On closer inspection, the textile reveals its color-intensive style, with unexpected details. Dimensions: 80 W x 156 D x 86 H cm Seat height: 43 cm Available in other upholstery options: Living, touch, cashmere, natural, coloral, craft, pine, re-wool, velour, maple, arco, select.

  • De Sede DS-262/11 Armchair in Black Upholstery & Swivel Base by Stefan Heiliger
    By Stefan Heiliger, De Sede
    Located in Brooklyn, NY
    Unimagined flexibility, thanks to two armchair parts. The architecture of the armchair is based on two parts, each able to swivel about its own axis. Depending on how the two chair parts are rotated relative to one another, the lower part can be used as an armrest, a footrest or practical shelf. Elegant buttoning and Fine piping on all sides – quite in keeping with incomparable De Sede quality underscore the impressive look. It’s been going on like this forever: ever since our solar system emerged billions of years ago from the so called primordial cloud, the planets – earth included – have been rotating. And thank goodness: if Mother Earth were absolutely immobile, it would be boiling hot on the side facing the sun and icy cold on the other side. As it is, however, we comfortably enjoy our life – sometimes spinning the way DS-262 does as it rises up like a lofty sculpture in the room – but that nevertheless encourages active relaxation, because the range of different sitting postures can be sampled to one’s heart’s content. Additional information: Material: Leather Category: Select - Black Type: Nappa leather, lighty pigmented Thickness: 1.2 to 1.4 mm Characteristics: Elegant in appearance, particularly durable, less sensitive to humidity, spots and light exposure thanks to an easy-care finish. Living unites practical considerations with a high aesthetic. Dimensions: 110 W x 128 D x 103 H cm Seat height: 43 cm Armrest height: 49 cm Available in other upholstery options: Living, touch, natural, coloral, craft Available in other structural version: Armchair without armrest.
