De Sede Ds-490 Modular Sofa in Off-White Upholstery by De Sede Design Team
About the Item
With two flicks of the wrist, DS-490 can be converted into a double recliner. The seat units with elaborately stitched upholstery offer supple comfort and create a contrast to the precisely contoured seat shape and the mechanism hidden underneath. The two seating elements lie on thin platforms that can be rotated independently of each other by 90°; the sofa with modern seat depth thus becomes a recliner for relaxing. Independently of the seating elements, the two backrests are also individually adjustable. This makes the seat depth and the back height easy to individualize.
In the middle of the room, with soft forms and in distinctive leather, DS-490 is a perfect piece of furniture for all the captains: behind the elegant look of a curved backrest and straight guide for the counterpart hides a cockpit as a styling object that becomes a generous recliner with just a few flicks of the wrist. Finally, time to relax! We refined the mechanism, look and feel of this sculpture for more than a year. And now, we’re very relaxed, too: because DS-490, with its patchwork leather look and carefully handcrafted tucks, emphasizes breathtaking elegance while at the same time supporting the elasticity of the leather and the flexibility of the individual elements.

De Sede
A de Sede piece lends a strong personality to the room it occupies. One of the world’s most respected furniture design houses, de Sede’s quality Swiss craftsmanship has its foundation in a long history of making expertly designed saddles. Founded in 1965 to build on a successful family-run saddler’s workshop in Klingnau, Switzerland, de Sede now is a leading manufacturer of leather goods and furniture, including sofas, chairs and beds.
At the core of de Sede’s philosophy is a reverence for the complexity and beauty of handcrafted furniture in an age when mass-produced objects are the norm. Over the years, the atelier has built a name for itself in its modular furniture pieces, which are made using the highest quality leather upholstery. The sleek, elegant pieces incorporate functionality with beauty. Amongst their best-selling designs is the DS-600 introduced in 1972. Also known as the Non Stop sofa, it is a sensually curved, snaking modular sofa whose individual pieces can be zipped together to create multiple variations and arcs.
De Sede has collaborated with some of the world's finest design minds, enhancing the prestige and individuality of their products. Designers like Santiago Calatrava, Antonella Scarpitta, Stephan Hürlemann, Gordon Guillaumier and Philippe Malouin have all created pieces with the atelier. Ubald Klug’s 1974 DS-1025, also known as the Terrazza sofa, is an enduring favorite with its cascading levels of leather. In 2017, de Sede expanded its product line to include high-quality leather handbags, which are as thoughtfully designed and beautifully crafted as its furniture. De Sede AG is now part of the Volare Group AG and continues to handcraft its fine furniture and other goods from its factory in Klingnau.
