De Sede DS-164 Stool in Off White Upholstery by Hugo de Ruiter

About the Item

Revolutionary back-push mechanism DS-164 can be transformed from an open sofa into an elegant chaise longue in a single movement, while the backrest can be stylefull rotated infinitely by 360°. The modular seat island, presented in organic curves, impresses with its expressive spatial presence, innovative functionality and playful approach to the classic expectations of a sofa. A furnishing element that individually adapts to every floor plan and every need. An exquisite drink in hand, following the flames of the open fireplace within the room, and then watching the soothing activity of nature through the opposite, panorama window in no time after that? With DS-164, it’s no problem – thanks to Dutch designer Hugo de Ruiter. By integrating dynamic elements, he wanted to design a piece of furniture that could be used in a wide variety of ways without losing its elegance. The basic idea of a movable backrest that would meet all these requirements was quickly found. But executing this as a functioning piece of furniture free of the fetters of the laws of linearity posed a challenge – one met with decisive success: with the 360° rotatable backrests on DS-164, another chapter in Swiss furniture history was written in 2003. By de Sede, of course. Additional Information: Material: Leather Category: Select - Off White 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.

  • Customizable Tacchini Julep Sofa Designed by Jonas Wagell
    By Tacchini, Jonas Wagell Design & Architecture
    Located in New York, NY
    Soft, enveloping shapes characterize this family of upholstered pieces. Julep is influenced by the 1950s Avant-Garde movement, drawing upon its simplicity and grandeur, refined by a contemporary, romantic, feminine allure. Star of the series is the sofa, whose generous rounded lines provided evolutionary DNA for the entire collection – including an armchair, a chaise-longue and an ottoman – in an interplay of proportions and shapes that gave rise, little by little, to all the other versions. Fully upholstered, the seats look ample and full, yet convey a sense of lightness, thanks to the recessed base that invisibly lifts them off the floor. Designed...

  • JENNY Large Wall Light or Sconce in Enamel & Brass by Blueprint Lighting
    By Stilnovo, Mathieu Matégot, Blueprint Lighting
    Located in New York, NY
    Introducing Jenny, the latest vintage-inspired fixture from Blueprint Lighting. Named for multi-hyphenate Jenny Mollen; NYT best-selling author, actress, design enthusiast, mom of 2 and wife of actor Jason Biggs. From our Chief Luminary, Kelly Aaron: "I have been working closely with Jenny off and on for the past year while she gives her NYC apartment a facelift--it's been so fun! She and I share a love of 1950s French design, which is obviously a hallmark of the Blueprint aesthetic. One day Jenny texted a pic of a single vintage mid-century French wall sconce she loved and asked if Blueprint could make it for her. Funny enough--I, too, had seen that same sconce the day before and already had my Creative Director/Husband figuring out how to fabricate it. How great is that?! It was meant to be!" The Jenny sconce...
