About the Item

Glide Armchair Designed by Monica Förster The Glide armchair is inspired by the constant transformations of nature-the fluid transition from one form to another, and from one state to the next, like snow gently melting in spring. Monica Förster has designed a light, essential armchair that conceals an unexpected depth of comfort. A slender metal frame supports the seat, which is both wide and remarkably slim. Its comfort derives from the carefully crafted material: molded polyurethane with varying thicknesses, designed to follow the natural contours of the body. The result is an airy, spontaneous embrace that envelops the sitter in soft support, combining visual lightness with a welcoming tactile experience. Dimensions W 106 × D 65 × H 61 cm - Seat H 37 cm W 41.73" × D 25.59" × H 24.01" - Seat H 14.56" Materials & Structure Internal Structure: Molded polyurethane with differentiated thickness Frame: Structure T02 - White RAL 9016 Upholstery: Guarana leather, Cat. V Details: Slim, lightweight metal frame supporting the ergonomically shaped seat Key Features Design: Light, essential, inspired by the fluidity of nature Comfort: Ergonomically shaped polyurethane follows body contours Elegance: Slim, airy frame creates a visual sense of lightness Versatility: Suitable for residential and contract environments Why Choose Glide Glide is more than an armchair-it is a synthesis of elegance, comfort, and simplicity. Its refined proportions, light structure, and enveloping seat make it a perfect expression of Monica Förster's philosophy: design that is essential yet highly functional, inspired by nature's subtle poetry.3160

Meridiana Chair in Black Leather by Christophe Pillet for Driade

Meridiana Chair in Black Leather by Christophe Pillet for Driade

By Christophe Pillet, Driade

Located in Brooklyn, NY

The Meridiana table stems from the ultimate globetrotter chair, revised this year with solid wooden legs. An archetype of the coffee shop or domestic table, it displays a precious balance between the round, wood particleboard top and the solid wood frame and legs. A mass-coloured clay mixture is smoothed over the top by hand with a scraper. The table’s aesthetic is distinguished by the shaded, handmade finish of its top. Available in the following colours: Volcano red, Lava black and Champagne. Born in 1959, he graduated from the Academy of Decorative Arts in Nice in 1985 and a year later took a post-graduate course at the Domus Academy in Milan. From 1986 to 1988 he worked with Martine Bedin in Milan, and from 1988 to 1993 with Philippe Starck in Paris. His first items of furniture, issued by XO, date from 1991. Since May 1993...
