2020 Mariposa-1

Mariposa SofaEdward Barber & Jay Osgerby, 2014 back again. The resistance is calibrated in such a way that these elements stay in place when the sitter leans back in a normal fashion, but will adjust to the desired angle when intentional pressure is applied. This flexibility allows individual users to determine the position that is most comfortable for them. The variously sized sofas of the Mariposa family are cosy and inviting, yet with a modern touch. They owe their extraordinary comfort to the pleasantly soft upholstery and an ingenious adjustment mechanism, which makes it possible to individually adapt the side and backrest elements for various sitting or reclining positions. The Mariposa sofas do not openly display their functional features: the slim side and back elements can be continuously and silently adjusted, from an upright position to an outward angle of approximately 30° and Materials • Structural frame: webbed metal frame with polyurethane foam. • Seat cushions: polyurethane and visco foams with chamber cushion overlay. Chamber cushion overlay filled with feathers and PU rods. • Back and armrest cushions: chamber cushion filled with stripped-quill feathers and PU rods. • Covers: removable. • Seat height: 425 mm (280 mm with applied load, measured in accordance with EN 1335-1). • Glides: plastic glides with levelling adjustment. • Applications: recommended for home use only. Edward Barber & Jay Osgerby Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby studied architecture as fellow students at the Royal College of Art in London. Since that time, their collaborative work has probed the interface between industrial design, furniture design and architecture. 16 Useful facts about covers materials 17 Care instructions

This flexibility allows individual users to determine the position that is most comfortable for them. Thanks to the unusual depth of the seat...
