DIESIS 40 3 seater leather sofa

Diesis is not only a B&B Italia classic, but an absolute icon of contemporary design.‎ 2019 marks the 40th anniversary of its first appearance - an important landmark which has been celebrated with some design and structural updates.‎ These updates return to the original concept while simultaneously advancing the design towards the future.‎ The iconic backrest retains its essential and technical integrity based around the structural steel core, composed of metal springs which give strength and flexibility.‎ The thick leather covered base and backrest are just like they were 40 years ago, but now have a distinctive Saffiano texture.‎ The supporting frame has a timeless elegance, which underlines Diesis’ harmony with the vision of the great masters of Modernism.‎ The cushions boast a new leather cover (available exclusively for Diesis 40) that accentuates the product’s strength and vigour.‎ This is softened by new and more comfortable upholstery.‎ Reinforced seams and other techniques borrowed from saddlery draw attention to the authentic craftsmanship.‎ Lovers of technical details will appreciate the die-cast lenticular elements of the polished brushed aluminium frame, and the seat structure which is further reduced by using two leather-covered coupled sheets.‎ There are many further details to discover in Diesis 40.‎ It is a great classic ready to face the next decades of its life.‎ Technical information - Frame steel sheet and steel profiles covered in saffiano thick leather - Seat cushion upholstery shaped polyurethane of different density, sterilized down, polyurethane inserts, polyester fibre cover - Back and armrest cushion upholstery sterilized down, polyurethane inserts - Top (40TD150) glass - Lower shelf (40TD150) multi-layered wood panel - Lower shelf cover (40TD150) saffiano thick leather - Support frame and feet die-cast aluminium and tubular steel - Ferrules plastic material - Cover leather in limited categories
