Coco Upholstery

red dot award: product design 2009

In the design of the Coco upholstery series, the strictness of the shell creates a harmonic contrast with the easy lightness of the inserted cushion elements. The clarity of the outer lines combines with the comfort and cosiness of the savoir vivre. The objective of the design was to connect Coco Chanel’s elegance and cosmopolitan openness with the feeling of safety and self-containment of a coconut. Thanks to the use of different fabrics and leathers, Coco offers the user a wide variety of options, ranging from an elegant clubbing atmosphere all the way to modern entry and waiting areas. It doesn’t try to stand out, yet it still has a strong and expressive character.
